Rob129 Posted November 17, 2015 Report Share Posted November 17, 2015 Welcome and good luck. Since I've been running, I have lost 17 lbs in 9 weeks by watching what I eat; the running has improved cardio vascular health immensely - I'm running 5K in 30 minutes, before I started I could maybe run 1 to 2 K w/o having to walk.

Haven77947 Posted November 17, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 17, 2015 Nice. I could barely run to the end of the driveway without wheezing today is my second day running and 5 days no smoking. I feel great so far. Keep up the good work Ruthie, Azatol and Alexa Martinez 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ruthie Posted November 18, 2015 Report Share Posted November 18, 2015 @ All longstanding and new ex-smokers - this is the absolutely best thing you can do for yourself, even though at times it might seem like the hardest. I have lost count as to how many years I have been smoke free (probably 13 or maybe 14) after smoking 1-2 packs a day for 15 years or so. When you smoke, you forget how wonderful it is to fill you lungs with air - 'cause you just can't. Here's to more oxygen and less crap in your lungs :-) Wendell 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anne Lang Posted November 18, 2015 Report Share Posted November 18, 2015 i never smoked but my mom did the happiest day of my life was when she quit and i could start to breath real air at home so thank you all for quitting glad the running is going so well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
