Is it just me, or is it lighter in here?

Since I quit I have lost 9 pounds. I was wondering why until I looked back on my smoking days.

I used to eat. Constantly. Everything HAD to have sugar. I skipped lunches so I could use that time as smoke breaks. Man was I stupid! I also sat on my butt all day. Oh, I moved around, took "walks" to the fridge and back, or to the computer...

Well now I'm eating only when I'm hungry. I'm eating better things too. I started running. I can't believe I can run now, before the thought of running would make me break out in a sweat. I'm sleeping better since I can breathe. I can take a deep breath and not cough my lungs out.

Life is grand.

So glad to see you doing so well but I have found the pounds you lost...I eat more now than before. I used to skip breakfast and lunch and ate a small supper. I like the fact that you are running and breathing better. I plan to increase my exercising...I walk but have not tried running...but then my great dane may flatten me if I tried.
