Yanno, that control pissed me off!! I also was scared of what the hell they were adding to my brand of smokes. The flavor would change, and I am not talking about the freshness or being stale. Given the price, (3 years ago now) and WTF were those bastids' were putting in there to keep me addicted pissed me off enough to say cluck you blother! Cold turkey, and they never got another dime, and my lungs are better because of it. I don't miss it at all. kinda sick to my stomach when I am near peeps who do smoke.......I totally understand the mind fuck that happens when you want to quit. Self mutany at its best .........I totally get it and say to those of you who are quitting and /or desire to quit: YOU ARE SO WORTH IT, EVERY SINGLE ONE OF YOU!! I admire you for the work and ongoing efforts in your successes!! If you feel you have let yourself down, get over it and continue your efforts. No one of us is perfect. GO! GO! GO! {waving pom pom's}

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!!

Day two down !!!!!! Doing a bit better today.....feeling a bit more like myself and not so much of the inner turmoil. 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
