Monday, Nov 8 2010 - Quite smoking
View MIDDLEROAD's food & exercise for this day
Well, I quit smoking on Saturday. I went and had acupuncture, which really does it for me. I had quit 5 years ago and then took it up again this summer. I was suffering with a lot of asthma from it, so hopefully I will feel better now. Hopefully this nips it in the bud for another 5 years at least. It is just like trying to lose weight. You have to never give up trying.
I am not giving up on losing weight, but I have had a lot of problems sticking to it lately. Mostly from not feeling well. Besides the asthma, I have been having mouth pain from tooth whitening, clogged sinuses, and an ongoing headache. If I could just take a few months off and sit in the sun on a warm beach, I think I would be okay. LOL.
The weekend was so busy that I did not have time to get healthy food in the house. I did manage to make my own salad for today, but .......... I stopped and got a big calorie laden bagel on the way to work this morning, along with lots of coffee.....
Hope the rest of the week is better.

Diane - Smoking takes priority for now! Make the best choices possible on the weight loss front. But don't be too hard on yourself! Huge step to stop smoking! I have and still do struggle with it on and off. I can't be around others that smoke or I crave and then bum one. Best of luck.

Have a good week and don't give up. The cigs are a really, really, really big deal.
