I hope you're all ready for the weekend, I know I am.  Tonight, my significant other, (not sure what to call him)  are going to check out a gym that I may want to join.  I am gaining weight so fast, and as much as I want to blame it all on eating, 

I also think that the Wellbutrin that I have been taking for a month to aid in my quit has also contributed to the weight gain.  

I know that antidepressants can do that to a person.  But I am optimistic about being able to join a gym and perhaps tone up what I have gained.  I have a small frame, and last year I weighed a whopping 117, that was pre baby weight

times 5 babies!   I was way too thin at that time, because everyone said I didn't look healthy.

But I'm up almost 20 lbs now.  Working it into muscle would be awesome.  Not sure how well that will go with my ACL partially torn, but I'm about to find out! 

Anyways, I am usually not around here much on the weekends, but I will try to check in, especially if I find myself struggling now that I am in NML!   You are all, always in my thoughts! 

Breath Easy, Breath Deep !  There is no reason to do anything else but breath clean fresh air!  

Peace all!

I'm an active 55 year old woman, who loves hanging with my family. I have 5 children 2 of them married, and 4 grand children. They are all my whole world. UPDATE 8/21/23 Now 61 years and have 2 more grandsons to add to the crew! My hobbies are bike riding, golfing, bowling, kayaking, painting (canvas or rocks) and gardening (getting the hang of it finally) I have smoked since I was 13 yrs old, and quit one time within the last ten years for a total of 9 months. Stress took me back to smoking. My life has been stress free for the last couple of years. Divorced for 2 years now, but back together with my Ex (husband) for a year now. It's time, I'm ready, and I quit! So far it's been pretty easy, so I'm very optimistic about this being my final quit! Thanks in advance for all the support! 2023 - Update: I now have 2 more grandbabies for a total of 6 and still smoke free! They will never get to know me as a smoker!!!!!!
