We were just told at work that in order to be able to afford next years health plan, those of us who smoke, are overweight, etc. have to 'clean house' or else. I smoke, I have put on a lot of weight since I stopped drinking. I'm on day 57 and I feel I'm being punished for doing well. Actually I'm freaking out a bit - I still do enjoy my cigarettes and I'm not ready to give those up too. I know it's just another addiction and the enjoyment is pretence. I know it's not good for me, blah blah blah. Same as alcohol wasn't and isn't. Sorry, no offense to non-smokers, I'm just angry right now and overreacting
.
Am I wrong in thinking one step, one day, one addiction at a time? Anybody else out there dealing with both and if so how? I need the health plan, so I don't really have a choice. So once I get the kicking and screaming out of the way, any advise would be appreciated. Thanks.
