Hello, just joined up and introducing myself...
At any rate I decided to start exercising to help my cardio recovery when I
quit
smoking
. One thing led to another and I find myself having just completed week 3.

Quit Smoking & Weight Gain?
Still
smoking
- So far, so good :) HAVE to
quit
this nasty habit for health reasons, my biggest fear is weight gain... I am currently pretty active (gym twice a day) and eat clean and within macros. With a drop in metabolism and an increase in hunger when you quit, will I gain weight?

I
quit
smoking
all but three cigs a day...so far. (57 yr. old female). Strange how I tried for yrs. to stop, and a diagnosis like this made me just lay them down, and not miss them much at all. I plan to be off them completely in a few more days. I can now say smoking makes me sick....literally.

Newly diagnosed with COPD and emphysema
I
quit
smoking
almost 7 years ago but that obviously was not soon enough. I was recently admitted to the hospital due to chronic bronchitis and because I could barely breath at all. I am feeling 100% better now, however, both of my hands have been having severe spasms that are almost unbearable!!

The God Syndrome
Personally I am what you might say or call a non believer and my strength to
quit
smoking
is about me and not GOD giving me the strength to do so. I know this can be interpreted in different ways by different people but GOD does give not me the power, I give me the power.

6 Days Smoke Free.
I have been
smoking
for the last 11 years and I just
quit
cold turkey. Man, this has been one of the hardest things I have ever had to do. The withdrawals are not easy. I have constant chest pains on the left side along with back/arm pain on the left side.

Tiny heart attack
I
quit
5 years ago after
smoking
for 25 years. The cardiologist said that I had a tiny heart attack and I am on medication for treatment. I have now arrived home and questions and anxiety has started to kick in. What is meant by tiny heart attack and mild cardio vascular desease?

45!!! And, I'm sorry I don't have a light, I don't smoke!!! (Woop!)
Last August I decided I wanted to
quit
smoking
after decades of indulging and believing I was a 'rebel' and putting two fingers up to the world... what a blinding idiot!! I dropped a cigarette at a time and allowed myself to mourn each one before dropping another.

A good little update
Smoking
caused my copd and I've been battling to
quit
ever since. Since my little scare with my spirometer results a few months ago (I had a false reading of 37 percent, but more recently confirmed actually 60 percent ) I've not smoked and had some hypnotherapy to help.
