I have to brag....that on Saturday it will be my 9 month anniversary as a non-smoker. Best thing I ever did was to quit. The hardest thing...but the most rewardig. You are right Lauren, it is a powerful addiction! I am just so happy with myself that it is gone now. For the most part! I have gained about ten pounds since then....and I changed my eating habits drastically to avoid a lot of weight gain. The truth is that for me....I dont care if I have those extra ten pounds. I would rather have them then that addiction. Plus, my doctor assured me that if I went back to smoking that I wouldnt lose that weight. Smoking doesnt make you lose weight. What happens is that when the nicotine is gone from your system you start to gain weight. My doctor says that he doesnt think that the weight gain is just about people eating more to keep themselves busy. he thinks that there is somethign more to it.

I didn't smoke for very long- only about 2 years, and I've been smoke free for about 7 years but I still finding myself wanting one every now and then! Talk about a powerful addiction. -Lauren -----Original Message----- From: Courtney Collins [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, September 19, 2004 10:51 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [BookCrossing] Re: OT: the size thing / Linda Yeah, it definitely isn't healthy. I'd always wondered why people smoked until just recently. I thought it tasted nasty. But somehow, about two months ago, I just started smoking out of the blue. I was up to a pack and day and then, one morning I woke up, and I didn't feel the urge to smoke. This lasted about a month and now I'm back to smoking even more. Hopefully, I'll be able to quit soon though! And actually, it really hasnt helped me lose any weight!
