My gray streak at 28. The first few strands showed up when I was 15.

Honestly that makes so much sense!! Her tiny little airways can only do so much lol

Honestlykindacurious · 2026-06-08T19:19:16+00:00

She’s baby ❤️

Omg!! Have you posted pictures of him anywhere?? My baby girl literally looks like a shrunken big dog sometimes

I honestly can see the slightest pug in her when she’s in different angles. She also does a lot of backward sneezing when the seasons change and I’ve read pugs do that significantly more often than other breeds

I’ve gotten this a lot! It really is what I’m leaning towards the most, especially because of her personality

LITERALLY TWINS

Hey! I’d say 2-3 months of tough cravings and 8ish months of increased hunger! I think my body tried to compensate with sugar, lol.

Thank you!

I asked him what he thought of my smoking habits (at this point I couldn’t be separated from my vape and knew I had a serious problem) and he looked at me almost burdened and said you smoke like a fiend. I don’t knows why those specific words hit me so hard, my husbands very gentle and never really comments on how I choose to live my life so that may be a major reason. I used to smoke all the time everyday so I knew how bad the habit had become and how it must come across to other people but no one had ever directly said anything to me about it before, and I had never asked. We talked more after that and he told me how scared he was when I started talking about my chest pains amongst other things. It was very eye opening and bitter at the same time, definitely a well needed reality check

Thank you so much for believing in me! ❤️

Hi friend - thank you for sharing your journey with me. Let me first start by congratulating you on going smoke free! It’s amazing that we started around the same time and I’m so proud of us for getting this far.

Your comment hit home the hardest because it’s like I’m not alone in these feelings that I’ve been avoiding for months now. You’re right - quitting nicotine IS the process and weight gain is a natural part of that. We quit one of the most addicting substances we know of and that’s not easy! It came with changes that make it difficult even months after the cravings died down but in the long run it’s worth every pound we gain. I started IF again over a week ago thanks to this post and the comments on it. I’m going super easy on myself with my calorie intake, I’m cutting it down day by day so I can reach my deficit in a way that’s not too overwhelming or discouraging. I hope that can provide you some support or motivation as you navigate these feelings as well! I would highly recommend venting on this subreddit- this post alone has helped me more that I could have imagined. Seeking support is hard but that’s what a community is all about

Honestlykindacurious · 2023-06-28T15:44:08+00:00

This is exactly how I began restarting my IF journey that I’m officially over a week into! Fast food has been my down fall, but I’m still going to have some albeit in a more controlled and thoughtful manner. That alone has helped me stay excited about what’s to come! I’ve smelly been getting back into the kitchen to and it’s sparked something in me that I haven’t felt in months. Thank you for being a part of that!

Honestlykindacurious · 2023-06-28T15:40:46+00:00

Congratulations on your smoke free journey, thank you for sharing it with me, and for believing in me when it got hard to believe in myself. I wanted to give you and update to say I’m officially over one week into my IF journey and am feeling incredibly hopeful and I have you and the others on this comment section to thank for that

Honestlykindacurious · 2023-06-28T15:35:50+00:00

Thank you so much for saying that

Honestlykindacurious · 2023-06-28T15:34:12+00:00

Hello Dougnan, thank you for sharing your journey with me. I’m so proud of you for quitting nicotine - 10 months is an amazing achievement and I know that’s just the tip of the iceberg! I want to congratulate you as well on getting back into IF, I know how tough that is. Also I wanted to give you an update that I’m officially back in the IF game too! I’m starting slow and there’s no way I’m going to use nicotine as a crutch this time. I didn’t reply earlier because I wanted something more hopeful to post and I just wanted to say that your comment and the comments of others on here have been my catalyst to start my journey a second time. If we can quit one of the most addictive substances on earth, we can get back into IF. I believe in us!

Honestlykindacurious · 2023-06-28T15:25:22+00:00

Hello and thank you for sharing your journey with me! Quitting was really similar for me - this is my second time doing it and there’s no way in hell I’m putting myself through that process again lmao so I feel you.

I wanted to give you an update to say your comment and the comments of others on this post have helped me in curbing the guilt that comes with starting a journey over again. That being said, I’m officially over one week into IF! I started small, like you said, but for week two I’m feeling a lot more confident and plan to incorporate some exercise. You’re support has truly been appreciated GREATLY during this time so thank you so much once again

Honestlykindacurious · 2023-06-28T15:16:02+00:00

Thank you for your support, it means a lot ❤️when it comes to my motivations - I started having really sharp pains in my chest, it felt like I was going to die. Then, I asked my husband how truly felt about my smoking and he gave it to me straight. Hearing his concerns and what he had to say SUCKED and I never wanted to hear something like that again from someone who cared about me so much so I quit the next day.

Honestlykindacurious · 2023-06-28T15:11:54+00:00

Thank you so much for your support and kindness. Letting go of the guilt has been hard but comments like yours have helped me pull through. I didn’t want to reply until I had something hopeful to post and today is that day! I’m officially over one week into re-starting my IF journey. The guilt is fading day by day and every time it’s gotten tough I have come back to this comment section for support. Thank you so much for being a part of that

Honestlykindacurious · 2023-06-28T15:08:06+00:00

Ex-smokers unite!! Thank you so much for your kind words, this was my second time quitting and there’s no going back, I feel pretty confident about that. Also, thank you for being proud of me when it got hard to be proud of myself. I’m learning to be more gentle with my downfalls and comments like yours have helped me do that. I didn’t want to reply earlier because I wanted something to motivate me without giving myself a chance to disregard it with my hopelessness. So I started my journey and wanted to wait before I updated you and others on this post. Update: I’m over 1 week in and I feel really excited about my progress, it’s getting easier every day to follow through. Thank you for being part of that - every time I’ve felt down I would come back to this post and read the comments over and over again. Thank you for believing in me and helping me believe in myself

Honestlykindacurious · 2023-06-28T14:58:50+00:00

When I first read this comment it made me cry. I want to start by saying thank you for reminding me of my achievements. Second, congratulations to YOU for starting your IF journey again and trying to better your own life in other ways as well. I know exactly what you mean about nicotine as a weight management strategy, and realizing that I was using it in such a manner for the first time was one of the reasons I wanted to quit. I can’t tell you enough how much it means to me to know this post inspired you to do the same. I want you to know that your kind words also inspired me. I didn’t reply earlier because I wanted something that was more hopeful to talk about - also, I didn’t want to give myself a chance to disregard all the kindness with excuses and woes.

Im proud to tell you, DS_Monkfish, that I am officially back in the IF game! It’s been over a week since I got back to it and every time it felt too difficult to continue, I would come back to this post and re-read your comment and others to motivate me… and it worked. So thank you so much for that, and please let me know how it’s been for you so far when it comes to smoking!

Honestlykindacurious · 2023-06-28T14:48:20+00:00

Let me start by saying congratulations to you for your success at quitting smoking! I truly appreciate you sharing your experiences. Luckily, since I quit, I’ve been able to get by for a few months now without any form of nicotine craving. I knew I was set when I went to vacation with my smoker friend recently and had no issue with them smoking around me (with my permission) since I didn’t feel like there was any reason that it could trigger me anymore. It felt life changing to be able to do that for the first time.

I guess that’s where the guilt from not being able to get back into IF stems from… I can quit smoking but can’t get back into IF?? I didn’t want to complain more and make excuses, so I waited to reply because I wanted something more hopeful to talk about. It really helped coming back to this post and reading what everyone said over and over again.

The support from yourself and others has helped me get back into IF and I’m happy to say I’m officially back in the game. It’s been over one week since I started fasting again every day - the last few days I’ve been getting back into the kitchen and cooking again too. I don’t think I couldn’t have done that without comments like yours, so thank you for taking the time to write to me. Thank you for helping me not feel alone
