OK I know I am getting older I need help in exercise recovery I walk the shelter dogs 3 times a week and each day i can be walking/running or being pulled for 4 hours straight and whilst I am there I can keep going until the last dog is walked I never get out of breath so I dont think its fitness but boy I can hardly walk the next day! should I be strength training? should I take supplements? should I do stretching? when I was younger I could do this everyday but not now :( any help from the more mature endurance people would be great please, I rest on the in between days and at weekends I am usually doing some activity ie long walks what more can I do?

congrats jess sometimes the first week is the hardest remember you quit you did not give up anything good x

Wendy i chewed a piece of gum as the chewing actions still sent signals that you were eating but not actually eating, i used to smoke menthols so i chewed menthol gum it also helped with the cravings in the early days and changed the after meal habbit

I agree with petra it gives you a sense of confidence and achievement that you can change anything that before maybe fear was holding you back no matter how old you are you have the power to change things for the better a better job, partner hobby or fitness etc quitting smoking apart from the health and financial benefits opens up so many doors of possibilities you just got to go for it :)

I thought i was the one looking an ass and the others looked ok :)

11 months is awesome joe so glad to have shared this journey with you

Nope is a small word, easy to say but the meaning behind it is huge for me it was simple to hold onto until I understood the addiction better in the beginning I pledged everyday more for the contract that I said to myself " no matter what happens I will not smoke" some days that was hard to honour but the principle behind N O P E no matter what is what keeps your quit I grew to understand this.
