I just started taking Chantix today,(hopefully I wont kill anyone..haha)...My actual stop smoking date is the 17th.  I also joined the gym again and weight watchers...So hopefully 2008 will be my year...I will be totally thin and smoke free!!  Woohoo  Wish me luck!

What is Chantix? And I too started weight Watchers last monday. But I must say you are a brave soul for dieting and quiting smoking all at once. I think I would really want to kill someone. LOL Hey we should keep each posted on our weight loss and encourage each other.

And good luck!!!!

Hey that sounds like a great idea!  I decided to quit smoking first and the idea of gaining more weight really scares me so I just decided to go back to my old stand by...weight watchers...I am a lifer anyway so what the heck!  I need all the support I can get...Chantix by the way, is a drug that supposedly tells your brain it doesnt need nicotine...now I just need a drug that tells my brain not to be a b**** and not to eat!! haha

Chantix eh? Hmm must speak to my doctor about that. Is it prescription? I have a good 65 lbs to loose, so I'll be looking for your encouragment. LOL

Good luck!!!  I have been off the heaters for 3 months (nicorette heled me).  I have been using some form of Tobacco since I was 12 (39 now)and it was time to hopefully stop once and for all.

Oh!  Me too!  I joined LA Wieght Loss on Saturday, and have about 50 lbs to lose.  Not gonna quit smoking though just yet, I'll start with food and work my way up to smoking.    Good for you though Lorim2, you've got way more brass then I have right now.    I'm gonna talk to my Docter about that drug though.  What is it Chantix?  Keep me updated on your progress with that, 'cause I really do want to quit, just not right now.

I've got a few friends that have used Chantix and they all have good things to say about it!!! They've been non-smokers now for almost a year.

I don't smoke so I've only got my friends to go by.

Good luck!!!

Good luck to you all!!! 
Loosing weight is really hard but once you done it is pretty easy to maintain it coz you know how much work you put into it 
I was one chubby girl getting out of high school but then lost 35 lbs and now I have been at 110 for almost 10 years  I am not sure what will happen when I get pregnant though 
Keep us posted
