I used to get all the exercise I needed from work, but no longer work there. I quit smoking and have gained 15 lbs in 74 days. This can't go on. I hope this site is the answer I need to keep myself on track and lose these lbs without starting smoking again

You need to get exercising and that will definately help fill the gap, try walking for starters, some like to walk in the country, some in the city, just find somewhere that you can start. Find something you enjoy in exercise first, that will help you from quitting after a week :) Do you like to hike, swim, walk, run, lift weights, etc., find that something and then add to it. Good luck to you - and remember, the food going in is the problem, not the cigarettes :) Don't start smoking to lose weight, find something to replace them, exercise, carrots, chew on beef jerky anything healthy :) ============ Quoting from robin61: Hi everyone, I am new to this site.
