BTDT! In 2003, I went on Atkins to lose weight before I quit smoking. So I lost 55 lbs. in 10 months! Then I quit smoking -- which was horrible.

I gained back the 55 lbs. in 4 months then continued to pack on another 30 lbs. without any problem.

So now -- It's 3 years later and I'm going to lose the weight. I do feel healthier since I quit smoking, but it did take almost an entire year to feel better.

Good luck to you. I highly recommend the patch. It wasn't easy, but it was easier with the nic patch.
