Woooohooooo 27 days is awesome.
 Very well done for talking yourself over the hump of craving yesterday. After almost a month you'd be really disappointed in yourself if you caved. It's just not worth feeling like crap after all the hard work you've done. Congrats for planting yourself on the non smoking magic carpet and staying put.  ps. Day 31 |

It's finally time...I started the patch today! I've "quit" several times before...most notably a three-year smoke free stint starting when I got pregnant with my son...but I always fell back. This time...I gotta stick with it! I'm starting to seriously feel the effects of smoking, and I don't like the way it feels. So...wish me luck!

also read some of the great stuff in this thread. Stay honest to yourself..tell yourself often you don't need that. And make yourself accountable..here or elsewhere. It really does help. Welcome to the ride. Glad to have more company..smiles

Always2late.....good for you!! It is NEVER 2 LATE to quit smoking. Someday soon you will say you are a non-smoker and what a feeling that is to be able to do! I don't know where you go to get strength when you need it, but for those few minutes when you are fighting the nicotine demon to not buy a pack or bum one.....call that strength to the forefront. I support you from afar.......and know one day soon you will be an even stronger woman from your success!

Just checking in really quickly. I haven't fallen off the wagon since my last slip up. I have been so busy with work and school that I haven't had time to think about my old habit. When I do see people smoking the urge to smoke isn't as strong and I am so glad to be smoke free. I actually did go to the gym. My son went with me and her was my personal trainer and I can hardly move today, but I can say I have no desire to smoke, and it feels good to be experiencing the not wanting to smoke feelings :-) Keep up the great work everyone!

Just stoppin in to say hi. Check on everyone and say still going strong. Starting day 41...smiles
Hang in there everyone..Still going day by day..but the point is..I am still going. Someone asked me yesterday why I was still having issues..lol My thought was...you try going all but 14 years of your life smoking and breathing a certain way and then yank it away..see how well you adapt or breath..but I didn't..I just smiled and said...That is how it works for me..lol Keep it going strong. Have a great day. .

I say..... if you are having some struggles it is the battle you are winning!! Someday LP, you as well as others here will no longer count the days, but will be able to say years ago.
Although I am a reformed smoker.......I feel it is important once I stumbled on this thread, to stop in and support people who choose to quit. As corny as it may sound, it is admirable to see ya all more than just wanting to be successful, but having successes every day. Imperfections are human traits, I am human and l love me!! Keep up the good work......positive energy!!Quote:

I know each time I get a craving, that if I change my surroundings , say to myself this too shall pass  , and take a deep breath  ....it gets easier each time  . and I am now coming off of a smiley overload !!!!Looking forward to the rest of this week and weekend, a wonderful distraction has been started !!!! Thank you baby for all your support and you know you have mine, keep up the good work
