I am so, so, fed up with the weight gain and the accompanying bloated feeling - my waist has expanded by 3-4". I have been the same weight for the last 21 years (since I gave up the booze), and since I am an enthusiastic cook my diet has always been balanced. I feel sluggish and lethargic, definitely unattractive and looking longingly at elastic waists. And I know I don't want to smoke, nothing would induce me to put a stinking white stick in my mouth again. Added to the low level depression (because of the weight gain I suspect) I want a fix or the promise of a fix soon in the same way that when I was a drinker often just the purchase of a bottle would do the trick, the knowledge that relief was imminent.
So, I've been reading the posts and the SOS section and I know that I have to wait, be patient. Forty-five years will not wash away in two months, but I tell you what: I could manage a lot better if I got my waist back......

Cigarette free for 58 days, I have not smoked 1,624 of them! And saved £406 towards my Hong Kong trip.
