Thanks for the welcome. I look forward to your receipes and your goals and accomplishments. I quiit smoking last Feb, I think, cold turkey, after many times, many programs, and I feel a lot better. Life is not fair all the time, but I did it. hey I put on a few pounds also the Thyroid went south but weight is in the high end of normal for age & hieght. I went from a 6 pack to a kegger but I'm happy. Life is good

Isn't 170 average for 5'9"? Anyways it's always more fun with a kegger :)

Congrats on the smoking! I have tried twice and it hasn't taken yet but they say it takes an average of 7 times soooo plenty of time LOL.

Yes 170 is normal but I used to be 140 before I quite smoking, it so happens at the same time my thyiode(sp) went south. I went from a 30" waist to a 34" waist in 4 months. I gained alot quick untill I found out I needed meds. so I am still 170 but feel good. I hope your doing good and stayiny on track. Life is good

I finaly Quite 1.5 years ago. I smoked sice I was 15. well I'm an AARP member. I tried every thing, all the magiacal(sp) cures, I found eventuly(SP) that make your mind up and Quite. It's hell but you have to get rid of the nicotine. My experice after 15 yrs of trying this works the best. No more gum or anything else. It is the toughest thing you will do in your life time.
