Hi,

I quit at the end of December and have gained 20lbs. I can't say I've stalled, cuz I havent started losing yet. They say that stopping smoking reduces the metabolism by 10% so I guess that would explain you're stall and my not losing yet. I'm not going to restart, then I would have gained those pounds for nothing and might never again be able to quit.

What I am doing is everything possible to boost my metablolism. Thing that will do that are cardio for at least 30 minutes a day, building muscle, some say caffeine, green tea and some other supplements that are available at nutrition shops.


Good for you for quitting, its sure one of the tougher things to do.
