This is my first day on fatsecret. I am happy to have found it.
My 'journey' began 6 weeks ago when I quit smoking, cold turkey, after smoking for a cummulative of about 14 years!!!
Two weeks into the 'smoke-free' lifestyle I found myself gaining weight at a ridiculous pace, in addition, I was already near my peak weight to begin with. :(
For the last 4 weeks I have counted calories and implemented exercise through out the week, drinking more water and purchasing better foods. Four weeks ago when I weighed I was 161 - and a size 16 (my peak was size 18 in the past) ... I will weigh in two weeks to see my progress.
I don't know how long it will take to lose the weight I need to lose ... but I have put my best foot forward in doing so. I quit smoking to be a healthier, more energetic mother for my boys - yet couldn't be, because I was/am overweight!
I feel I've turned a new leaf ... and hope I stay on task!
