It would be like a counter starting the day I quit and turns over each day so I can mark my success

Hi, Ki: I, too, was underweight when I quit in 2003. The bad news is that the weight gain continued over a couple of years. The good news is that, for me, it wasn't horrific. My metabolism slowed (and yours may not) and that's the worst of it. And, yes, it slowed over a long period of time. So I jumped a size, big deal. Am I happy with my new shape? No, but I am happy that the pulmonary disease I'm stuck with for the rest of my life won't be getting worse. I really rejoice when I see someone quit, especially before they do permanent damage. God bless your efforts to keep the weight off. Walk, walk, walk. The treadmill is your best friend! Love and best of luck, cmw EDIT: I was reading some of the answers and some misinformation. You need to know that smoking actually burns calories, so even if you did not eat more food, you'd gain weight. And that's other than the metabolism slowing part. Only 10% of people gain over as long as 5 years, so your odds are good. It does not have to be a nightmare. Stay positive.

CONGRATULATIONS for quitting smoking....
hi i quit smoking after 12 years i feel excellent about and i can now call myself a non-smoker. It has been 5 months now and I don't feel like one or need one. Bascially what I did was let me best friend know and everyone else and on my calendar I actually marked the date that I quit and now everyday that a certain day comes up I can actually say I have quit x amount of days.
After a couple of days it becomes weeks then months. I am looking towards my first year. So maybe you shouldn't count by days but count by your goals and expectations.

Congratulations!!! Quiting smoking is very hard, but worth it in so many ways. Its been 8 mo. for me now. It has gotten easier every day. I don't really miss it anymore. I use to mark each day off on a calendar, but after 6 mo. I stopped. Good Luck & stick with it. You can do it!!!

Make a word doc with the date you stopped as the title and choose an icon.
