Ok, cool. It's been about 6 weeks since I quit smoking, and I gained some
weight but it seems to have stabilized. I went from 149-151 pounds to
156-158, and it's been holding steady for about 2 weeks now. I increased
aerobic exercise for a few days but I hated it so I went back to just doing
the weight training and walking. I've quit binge eating, but other than
that I haven't been consciously restricting how much I eat. I've had a few
carby splurges, like a 20g carbs chocolate bar once or twice a week, (I
wasn't low-carb at all at Dragoncon this past weekend, but I was also far
more active than usual, so I don't think it hurt me.) Never went
completely off low-carb, just less strict than when I was actively trying
to lose weight. Seems my body has stabilized at this weight for now, and I
feel mentally and emotionally stable, so it's time to nudge up the exercise
and nudge down the eating, and get back into the losing game. )




Sounds like a great plan.
