Pat - super, fabulous so proud of you..how are you getting along? I quit while on Atkins and with this support forum in May 2002, I had a buddy -Darkginger who has just disapeared off the face of the earth while we were into the 3rd week, dont as me what happened to her she' s from Ireland. I smoked for many years from English Boys bording school days aged 16 to 43 yrs old ...yikes. But I always exercised and ran the Singapore marathon aged 40. I am 45 in March on the 9th.

Anbyway i am so happy for you , describe your pains, frustrations, I'll be your buddy and help you along its the best thing I EVER did other than quitting alcohol on the 21 August 2000

You will have so much more stamina, do you exercise much ? what's your schedule like?
