I will enter a better bio when im not trying to do this on a cell phone!! Long story short, I started at about 300 lbs some years ago and through some extremely unhealthy methods went down to about 206. At 161 with about 30 lbs to go I now eat right, exercise 6 out of 7 days a week, and will begin using the other tools and trackers on this site once our move is complete and we have the internet working :-)

Quit smoking
Frozen seedless grapes and celery sticks worked for me when the urge to snack was strong. Congrats on making the decision to quit and good luck!!!

Menopause and weight gain
I am only 36 but was told 2 years ago that I am already in premenopause !! Weight has been a constant struggle for me my entire life. I've battled eating disorders, depression, 2 divorces, 4 pregnancies ... The list goes on and on. Fortunately I happened to go to a physician who also happens to be a personal trainer... And i have hit a jackpot lol. He told me that as strange as it sounds there is such a thing as too much exercise and too little calories (yay!) He cut me back to cardio 3 times a week, toning and strength training the other 3, Sundays rest, and between 1225-1500 calories a day and suggested Gilad's quick fit schedule that increases your workouts and calorie intake over a course of 12 weeks so that your body has a chance to build up to the exercise. The weight drops steadily but slowly, however the changes in my body have been dramatic. I am smaller and leaner and have more energy than before, and the workouts leave me sore enough to feel like I've accomplished something, but not so sore i want to quit lol. I'm planning to try the p90x or insanity programs eventually because as this condition (AFFLICTION!!) continues i know women have to try ten times as hard as before to drop the weight! Remember when 10 lbs fell off in a week.... *sigh*.... Sometimes I miss highschool.... I started at over 300 lbs and the last time i weighed i was 161. I have since boycotted the scale but if i can do it you can too! Good luck to you!!! And please, find a New doctor. Your current one sounds like a quack.
