weight loss - saggy tummy

I am big with the crunches too Lainey--i find them helpful. I recently added pilates to my work-out and this also seeems to tighten the mid area as well. I find exercise to be one of the most helpful in my bag of anti-smoking tricks. (It helps me with the anxiety & depression that seem to come with the quit)--also helps with occupying the mind for a bit of time..I have always exercised--but seems to help more than ever now. Still gaining some weight though; but I'm thinking it's a trade-off for the whiter teeth and better complexion....
