It has been a while

But I am still a non-smoker.  It has been 463 days 10 hours, etc since I smoked.  I so enjoy saying I am a non-smoker.  It took a long time to be able to say that instead of I am trying to quit.  Do I feel better... in some ways I do, however I have gained weight and that is miserable, and I hurt my leg last year and have had been limited in my physical activity.  So now that my leg is better, I don't have the energy to get up and move .. this for me is going to be like smoking.  I will have to make me get up and move, just walk... just walk.

I work hard all day, but it is at a desk, mentally drained by the end of the day.  When I get home, I want to just veg out, and that is not goo.

Over the next the few weeks, I am going to have to make a plan, and get the old woman back in gear.  If I don't I will be headed to a walker, or worse.. just because I gained weight, and stopped moving. 

Any helpful suggestions will be much appreciated.  As I climb another mountain.

(((Hugs)))

I am retired from accounting, a grandmother to 13, mother to 4. I quit smoking 3 years ago for 1 1/2 years but started again. I have now quit. I love to play on my laptop, work in my garden, visit friends, and have church activities. I am relatively healthy for an old woman and hope I have many years left to aggravate my children.
