Eyja thanks so much for the Encouraging post!!! I was needing that!! Yes I am doing Great and I will continue to do so; because I See myself as a Winner, a Non-Smoking, Thin Winner :) As long as I Believe that I can accomplish it!!!
Doing better today, at least mentally. Eating under control and I'm a non-smoker!!!! LOL I just figured out that I'm spending almost as much on SF candy and gum as I was cigs :)
I absolutely Refuse to allow myself to gain an amount of weight that will force me to buy a new size (wardrobe). At the same time I have acknowledged that I needed to buy a couple of pants with elastic waists, and a couple of tops to wear over, not tucked in. I did this yesterday. It is a compromise I can live with. Cheap clothes I won't feel badly disposing of when they are no longer needed.
My house contains only healthy food, I do not buy or consume junk. If I have guests they take the crap I brought in for them home with them. So if I engage in some over eating it will at least be food that is nutritious and low in calories.
The sun is out, I had a 1 mile easy walk without thigh pain. Used wet heat and massage before and after walk, so far so good! Not being able to exercise will be my biggest obstacle as I get depressed when I can't use it to release energy. Will have to work on a solution to occupy myself adequately if I can't exercise. Whatever it is it needs to be Energy consuming, not just keeping my mind & hands busy..... Any Ideas??
Keep the Quit everyone!!!! We Can be healthy, joyous non-smokers :)
