I guess I'm really into *****ing today. I mentioned weight gain in one of my posts and I think it was Melanie suggested I go to the weight problem forum. Whine -- it is unavoidable that one gains weight when you stop smoking or so it seems. Normal to gain 10 - 15 Lbs - I gained already 26... and that despite the fact that when I last quit I started jogging, went regularly to the gym, got my heartrate down to almost marathon status - yes to well below 60 beats. (I must say I enjoyed telling all my healthy - never-smoked friends that I had a very healthy heart- although most of them did not agree that I had one at all) And still I put on weight. However, what really makes it an issue is that I can no longer fit into all those reward clothes I bought myself whilst in the throes of successfully quitting. Now that I am quitting again I guess I'll just have to stop wearing any until the weight gain levels out.
But hell if this keeps up it will certainly be easier to jump over me than walk around. But you know I have two cartons of cigarettes stashed away so I could also go back to smoking - which is worse on the heart being a smoker or being overweight? Joke - Joke �� :)
Of course it is being overweight :eg:
Smoking is just minor cancer-causing, disgusting, expensive, foul-smelling, idiot behaviour to be encouraged in those wishing to age before their time so that at least when they die young they will look the part.
Today is just day 3 - wait until I really start to go crazy.
