I have always been a good weight for most of my life. At times I would have
been considered underweight. But, 8 years ago I quit smoking, yeah for me,
and last year I turned 50. Both of those things combined have caused me to
gain extra pounds. About 30 extra pounds. Two years ago I lost 20 lbs
rather easily then quit working out and eating right and it came back with
some extra pounds.

I have always been a good weight for most of my life. At times I would have
been considered underweight. But, 8 years ago I quit smoking, yeah for me,
and last year I turned 50. Both of those things combined have caused me to
gain extra pounds. About 30 extra pounds. Two years ago I lost 20 lbs
rather easily then quit working out and eating right and it came back with
some extra pounds. I attribute my quiting the workout because I began to
experience lots of body pain which was diagnosed as fibromyalgia. I don't
know if I buy the diagnosis. But I do know that I sometimes have pain, but
exercising actually makes me feel better as long as I don't over do. So now
I'm having a bit more trouble getting the pounds off as quickly, but maybe
that means they won't come back so fast either.

BTW I would never ever never ever start smoking again. Even if I gained 100s
of pounds. I feel so much better and I am soooo much stronger and I am
very proud of myself for quitting. I wouldn't trade being 50 either. The view
from here is wonderful.
