Trophy This is wonderful the smoking cessation working!

Everyone seems to gain some weight. But that can be dealt with when you have the energy to do so. Saving your lungs, so you can live and breathe is so much more a priority now.

Just take it one day at a time. One thing you can do is reduce your portion sizes by 10% each week until you get to about 70% of what you ate before. That way you are not really dieting, or missing favorite things. Drink more water, to fill you up etc.
Then it won't seem so difficult.
