I did gain when I quit but I was able through exercise and a few cranky months able to get the issue with eating under control I think it will be rough but its just another challenge in keeping the pounds down and keeping yourself together through this bump.Your going to be fine!I have moments when I get annoyed with myself for falling into the same trappings over and over again but its easy to say "oh its fine" then it becomes a huge big deal.It's always step up and deal with it but I understand it can be so exhausting to go through the same steps, down the same road that you already have seen really is unpleasant.It does become "oh this yet again".It's like buying a pair of ugly shoe's and thinking why did I buy that.. You know you will be fine once you get past this its another challenge in how much do you really want it.That miracle is still yours,just remember its for you.Your worth it! Best to you, Danny Hi Genie,

Be easy on yourself. I used to be a smoker and it was the hardest thing I ever gaveup. I am just starting Medifast. I was always very thin until I quit smoking, and had 2 children. I am determined to get 30lbs off. I should be receiving my products any day. Also I watched General hospital for about 20 yrs. I am a big fan of yours. I live in Portland Maine. I was told you also live in Maine. Anyway wish me luck!!! Best wishes Mairi Hi Genie, I am wondering if you will get this. Be easy on yourself.
