Well done lillie! Thats fab - gadz i hate smoke, never even tried a puff! i canna bear the thought of even touching one! Pity I never felt like that about eating tho! lol!
Well done, not only are doing fab with diet but your proving you dont need to gain weight when you stop, as so many smokers use that as an excuse!X

" When you quit smoking, your body has to adjust itself with the changed situation. You will usually tend to have more food to maintain the balance of the dipping blood sugar level. It may eventually lead to weight gain".
This is fact not an excuse and it effects some more than others. I think you only really understand quitting when you have been an ex-smoker.

:happy096: Standing ovation and stuff to you Lil !!! Well done well done xx Its even more amazing you only used the patches for a few days thats great...you have some willpower girl x the patches would not have slowed your weight loss down tho...stopping smoking did...smokers have a slightly highter metabolism..so when you stop your metabolism slows down temporarily until the body readjusts ...what was in one patch was not as much as the nicotine in the cigs you had each day... so in theory maybe if you had put about 5 patches on your weight loss may have been your usual.. and you would also have had to go to hospital through overdose lol... just as well you got rid of the patches and done it yourself anyway xx now all the money you save can go towards all sorts of treats for yourself xx

That is absolutely true, but we are talking about stopping smoking, I am sure Lill wont mind me saying and I am assuming here, but I reckon she wasnt the type to eat carrot sticks, hence why she is on LT. As I said it may effect some more than others e.g. carrot munchers/ chip munchers. So on that reckoning Lill is hardly going to put weight on while on LT and stopping smoking but some may and I believe as a ex/non smoker and reading the medical facts it is NOT an excuse for putting on weight but a unfortunate bi-product of.
Ps Lill's not bad? x
