I kept quiet through this but thought I'd share. I smoked for YEARS. But two years ago I quit - cold turkey and haven't went back. I was a size 2 and I'm 5'9. Yes a size 2 !!!! Now I'm carring about 10 to 15 extra pounds BUT I'm glad I'm not smoking.
I know what your going thru - I'm told I'm skinny all the time but I don't think so. I feel FAT!!!! You have no idea how many times I think about smoking again just to lose the weight I gained from not smoking. I think about it everyday!!!! I want to be that size 2 again! I thought I was FAT then too! When I see pics of my self I see how sickly thin I was.
But I just wanted to share my story with you and wish you luck in whatever you decide to do, whether it be to smoke or quit....you are the one that needs to behappy.
Good luck Gina!!!!!!!!

Gina, it is completely fine to mess up everyone once in awhile! No one is perfect!!!!!!! You can do it and we're all rooting for you!!!!!!! Even if you have an extra pound or two, you won't smell, you'll have beautiful skin, and you won't age as quick. You can cover up an extra pound or two with clothes...you can't cover up wrinkles.

Goooooooooo Giiiiiinnnnnaaaaaaaaaaaa! I completely know what you are going through but I gained A LOT more than 7 pounds! But ya know what? It came off (eventually) and I'm a lot healthier for it. I'm not going to lie though, it's by far the hardest thing I've ever done and will ever do in my lifetime.

Keep your chin up and know that it gets easier but it takes a lot of patience. If you want to talk you know where to find me

Gina,
I have struggled with my weight all my life, I have never felt comfortable with the way I look, I would do anything to be thin. From your pictures, you look pretty tall, hun, 135 for a tall woman is NOTHING! You need to really think twice before you go lighting back up. You know when someone who smokes comes near me, I about gag, they stink so bad, and there breath is aweful! Now I know you dont want to stink and have bad breath! Please please please dont start smoking again!
Do you drink plenty of water or do you drink pop? I have dropped 15 pounds by just quitting pop, I even drank diet, but the diet is worse then the regular pop, so maybe if you do drink pop, you could drink more water!
