It makes the small meals that you can eat taste soooooo much better. I am a former smoker and I will NEVER go back. For one thing thay are $4.75 a pack here. And I like smelling nice, I sold some clothing on EBAY and one of my feedbacks was how nice the pants smelled. Smoke free forever, wanna join me? ~Mandy

I think that there may be something to quitting when the Farmer's Almanac says it's a good day to quit. I have attempted to quit many times without success. This time was so easy, I'm not grumpy & i'm not eating everything in sight! I don't know. It might be something to think about if you are wanting to quit. If anyone is interested, it is showing Sept. 29, Oct. 26 & Oct. 31, as the next best days to quit smoking. Good luck!

I'm so happy for you! I had to quit six years ago when my fiancee had a massive heart attack. Since he had to quit, I wanted to be there for him. I'm so glad that I don't stink anymore or have that terrible breath.

I quit smoking 2 years ago and I REALLY don't miss how much time they took out of my life. I am free! BUT, since I quit I have been sick with colds, flu, anything that's out there, I was NEVER sick when I was a smoker. Anybody else notice that?

The last time I quit, I quit for 4 years & I was sick a lot too. Not looking forward to it either. But I'm still not smoking! With all the tornadoes last night I wanted one though! Thanks for the support! & Babs, If I get weak I may just take you up on that! Thanks!

Hey Jessiebear,

Well done, you have started a wonderful new part of your life. I quit smoking last year and have experienced the benefits of not getting chest infections this year, and loving having so much money left over, I now have really nice shoes and clothing, instead of yucky smokey clothes. My b'f loves to snuggle in now and it doesn't affect his asthma.

Keep up the good work.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.
