thanks noa for your feedback. YAY for you never being addicted to cigs. I grew up around my mom, dad, and grandmother smoking all the time. I so agree that I cannot take on too much and realize that I can't change these things overnight, I am asking too much of myself. I will chill lol
Many therapists have said to me that I just can't "fix" everything that I'm doing negatively to my body-at once. I need to remember this! I do have an addictive personality-thanks to dad LOL
Another poster just said maybe I should stop smoking, honestly, the weight thing is more important to me right now, I've only been smoking for 3 1/2 years, and even though I know it's only a short time, it is and will do damage. I really appreciate your feedback, as I agree that my mood and weight need to be brought under control(not that I'm huge, but I need to lose about 50)
Thanks again and all the best to you:-)
By the grace of God go I....one step at a time no?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Krissy,
Maybe you should delay dealing with the smoking thing. First stabilize your med situation. then when you are stable, make a plan for dealing wiht the smoking addiction.
I have never been addicted to cigarrettes, and I feel so lucky, because I've heard from friends how incredibly hard it is to kick it. You are craving nicotine, maybe because of long time addiction, but also maybe nicotine is doing something for your mood. Well, not best delivery system, granted, but trying to quit now maybe asking much too much of yourself.
One step at a time, no?
