I know many of us planned to become healthier weight wise and physical activity wise this year!  I was at the doctor's this morning for a mini-physical, and I'm happy to announce that since Jan 4 I've lost 30 lbs.  My overall cholesterol has dropped 56 points and my bad cholesterol has dropped 54 points!  My blood pressure is back to a normal range (123/72).  I'm half way to my goal weight wise, and all of the other numbers can only get better!  I'm eating healthy, drinking 8-10 glasses of water a day, and exercising 5 days a week.  Lots of fiber and protein, minimal white foods (white flour, sugar, potatoes, etc.)
 
So for anybody who is concerned about gaining weight while quitting smoking, focus on one battle at a time.  Don't worry about gaining a few pounds as they will eventually come off!  As somebody once said, you can always lose weight.  You cannot lose C.O.P.D. or other lung diseases!
