If you can kick smoking you can do anything! 😊😊 well done! Happy holidays 

My only tip is to not deny yourself the treat foods.. Pizza, burgers, Choccy etc. I found denying myself made me miserable then I'd cave and give up with the dieting. Just remember moderation of these things. Also sometimes a small meal can be less calories and more filling than a snack (ie soup over the chocolates/pork pies) Good luck. You will get to your goal, quitting smoking shows me that you have got this challenge in the bag! 

Thank you all for your support! I will take your tips into consideration. We've got this!! 

I found stopping smoking so much easier than losing weight! Same with coming off huge amounts of opioids (I was seriously ill). The thing with cigarettes and drugs is, you can just stop them, never buy them again, avoid them. But we HAVE to eat, HAVE to buy food, there's no avoiding it. Just take one day at a time, bad days happen, just start again the next day. 

That’s a very good point lasagne! I hadn’t thought about it that way. It might be hard Immy but we are all behind you 💪 💪 😊 

Small gradual changes that build new habits is my recommendation. 

Allen Carr easy way to stop smoking will change your life. A life long smoker - keep smoking while you read - and see what happens. I skipped the health chapter on how bad smoking is. We all know right? On diet, you don’t have to give anything up. Just count, count, count - although you don’t have to give anything up you will soon choose fruit over chocolate because of the amount of comparative food. If you want a glass or two of wine - just plan it in. Some weeks you go up and some weeks you go down. Some months you go up and some months you go down. I did exercise as well, but makes dieting harder as you need more food, and the cravings are harder. But. I am fit as well now 

just think of it this way... you can stop smoking so you can do anything! once your mind is set you'll be on your way and achieve your goals🙂 enjoy Christmas and everything in small doses ☃️ 

You can do it there's so much support on this site and lots of lovley meal ideas. Set yourself a goal, allow yourself a treat once A week its amazing how many things you can have with little calories. Giving up smoking is so hard but you did it which means once you get your mind to it you can do it. Good luck 😁💪x 

Thank you everyone for the support, my app didn't say I had anycomment past the first two so I feel rather rude not replying and I am sorry. I agree with you lasagna, that food is everywhere so it is harder to pick the right stuff but hopefully in time my body will tell me what to swap with certain foods. I'm getting the hang of snacking on fruit instead of chocolate but there's a lot of Christmas food left. Thank you again everyone
