Mario,

Welcome to the forum. Regarding the treadmill. There's nothing wrong with walking why not leave off the jogging until your weight is down some? If you need to up the intensity there's always the incline. Are you concerned because you're deconditioned or did you actually have some chest pain or discomfort with exercise? If the former taking it a little easier at first should help. If the latter you should probably see your dr just to make sure.

Congrats on quitting smoking. That's a tough one.

Also want to say you might take a look at the Fat Loss Troubleshoot forum and information. Leigh has an awesome package for purchase but she also provides a lof of information on the forum. There's also a lot of info from other members.
