I Am A Non-Smoker...

I finished the 3-months of taking Chantix a couple weeks ago.  Since then, I have had the urge to smoke and have gained weight.  I know I have been eating more and more because I want a cigarette.  I finally shaved my chin, yet  it made no difference, I just found another one! 

It gets harder and harder to lose weight the older I get.  Most often it happens when I'm sick.  That's usually in winter and I'm usually really miserable.  Not a good diet, in all.  Gaining, on the other hand, seems to happen easily anytime, but especially now.  The most I have ever weighed happened the last time I quit smoking (for 5 months, about 2 years ago).  That was just a half stone more than I weigh now.  I do miss smoking, but not enough to start again just to lose weight.  I can breathe deeper, cough deeper and laugh deeper than I could in a long time.  Mornings I still have some clearing out to do, but it is getting easier.  My sense of smell hasn't really improved much, maybe that comes later.

Sigh.  Everything I enjoy is bad for me.  Moderation, I guess.  FML
