Gained weight in the process, but I had to get away from those nasty things because I was getting to a point where I just couldn't ever picture myself without a smoke. I'm glad I proved myself wrong.

CONGRATULATIONS.

My secret for losing weight: (from the Rhonda Johnson International Association of Chocolate Addicts Anonymous) if you don't buy it, you can't eat it.
The god who allows children to be raped out of respect for the free will choice of the rapist, but punishes gay men for engaging in mutually consensual sex couldn't possibly be responsible for an intelligently designed universe.

In the majority of cases effort has to be expended. Will, won't, can't, shouldn't, etc., all are required. If you can't or won't, you will not succeed. But that shouldn't stop you from trying again.

Well of course. If you're ready and you want to quit, you will find the way to get around barriers that stand in front of you.
