in THE MAIN WALL
The Nutra Sweet (generic name Aspartame) breaks down into fermaldehyde (lab frog pickling solution) when you digest it. Not good. Besides, it tastes nasty.

    First I quit smoking and that was hard enough. Then the weight came. Now with the 'Wall biggest loser' thing I am down 3-4 lbs and cut out morning & afternoon sodas. Just one with lunch and one with dinner. Now the craving for a smoke is REALLY back, and it is really hard to not have a pepsi. Really hard, but all worth it.

    Please tell your ladies happy mother's day if it applies.

    Chantix

    Tim, ask your doctor for a perscription for Chantix. I had very good results with it. I was on it about a month before I finally tossed the cigarettes in the trash. Stayed on it for about 6 months, then finally quit using it as a crutch. Smoke free for close to a year, and feeling a bit proud. I smoked for 46 years.

    been 19 years puff-free

    Best thing & hardest thing I ever did. In the past few months, I've lost more than half the weight I'd gained & kept.

    You can do it!

    Hang in there Tim. Quiting the soda is probably as hard as the cigs. From what I have heard, diet pop is just as bad if not worse. I never smoked and no longer drink soda and I still gained the weight. I do like to eat. Not sure I have the where with all to stick to a diet.

    Stay strong....

    I smoked two packs a day in my youth. I quit cold turkey before all the aids we have today. (patches, pills etc.)

    It Was Not Easy! I Was A Miserable SOB for weeks! (Got friends who will remind me)

    But I got through it!

    You Will Too!

    Best decision of my Life (literally) Been almost 30 years!

    You CAN Do This!

    Good Luck!

    Thanks guys. Being married, I am beginning to think the weight I am gaining is not from food or soda, but from swallowing pride...

    You will get to the point where the smell will turn your stomach and you will wonder how you ever smoked in the first place. Yippie for you...

    keep it up Tim!

    Way to go Tim! Quitting is one of the hardest and best things you can do for yourself and your family.

    I haden't considered the weight gain with swallowing pride but having been married for the last 16 years that would explain my extra 25 lbs as of late....
