I have some good news and bad news.

GOOD:

I stopped smoking about a month ago. I'm doing pretty good with the attitude and all, but.............

BAD:

I've gained about 7-8 pounds in the month I quit smoking.

I've always heard that quitting smoking causes a lot of people to replace the cigs with food. It's the oral addiction. I need help in losing the weight and maintaining my sanity and fitness. Some suggestions and incuragement would be appreciated.

I'm 43yo, 5'10".
