Life is pretty rough lately, and OMG the cravings are sooo bad!
So I'm eating CRAP!
Which is so not helping my weight issue!
Which is making me want to smoke!

Been there, Barb. Don't give in. The food is temporary and when the rough spot is over you can get back to the weight stuff, but if you go back to cigarettes you might NEVER be able to quit again. Hang in there, girl. This too shall pass.

I have been eating really badly since March, but I have been walking 5 miles every day, so I haven't gained any weight. If only I could eat right too, I'd be smokin' hot!

Thanks you guys. It helps just getting it out there and having people understand.
I didn't give in, well not to the cigarettes. I have GOT to get back on track with my food though. Even with working out every day, I can't get this weight back off!
I'm going to hit the sack with some sleep aid tonight and get a good nights sleep and hopefully be in a much better frame of mind tomorrow.
Thank you all, again. I'm glad I have you guys on my side

just checking in, still smoke free - 4 months and counting. I am waiting for my metabolism to return to normal - I am walking 2 miles a day for the past 3 weeks and my weight is going up. I am trying to hang in - I do not want to smoke but the weight thing is getting to me!

It is very hard and frustrating to be sure. Keep hangin in. I'm just now starting to feel like my metabolism may be trying to come back. And it's been a year!
