Good luck bro. Soda's were really hard for me. I don't know why. It was almost just as hard as giving up smoking. Weird. But it's been about 2 months now.
Professor Melon:
:) Glad to hear your dad's on the mend, Paul. As to the weight: avoid the killer combination--oil, sugar, and carbs. I cannot bring myself to forbidding beer. You've got to commit to the change--it's not just a diet for a month or two--now, because if you don't you'll be stuck with the weight for the duration, and that will lead to disabilities in middle age. Since I have never smoked (have had asthma since childhood), it is harder for me to appreciate a smoker's addiction. My grandfather, mother-in-law, best buddy's father, and two uncles all died of lung cancer, clutching cigarettes to the bitter end. I know reason is not sufficient. Have you seen those photos of a smoker's lungs? Perhaps the idea of getting entirely clean may help: clean head, clean lifestyle, clean lungs. I hope you succeed in quitting. Professor Melon
schro:
Hey Paul, hang in there. I was never a smoker (the occasional stogie on the golf course), so I can't offer any advice on breaking that habit. Though, I read somewhere that it takes three weeks to "develop" a habit. I have no idea if that's true, or if that logic applies to breaking a habit or the chemical effects of nicotine. Needless to say, good luck.
How's dad doing?
PBurke:
lipton makes a diet green tea w/ citrus that is pretty good. has helped alot. dad is doing ok.
