Thank-you for your reply Daywalker. I hope you get into quit-mode again. Modifying your eating behaviour is a really good preparation. I'm almost afraid to ask what a Ding Dong is but I'll ask anyway...what is it? The things I like to snack on aren't healthy options either so along with that slowed down nicotine free metabolism, that probably accounts for my extra 25lbs. I need to start a healthier food regimen too and cycle more miles.
I can understand the 'self destruct' thang. I'm at the start of one of those times myself. I just lost my (very prt time) job and then my home of the last 13yrs all within the space of a couple of weeks ![]() ![]() |

Good morning Incubus, gaea, Daywalker and those trying or even thinking about it.
Happy Smoke-free Monday...It has be a whole month for me! Today is a test, going to play golf for the 1st time without smoking.....big big triggers, in between tees. I can do this, new experiences. Have a great day everyone!

Good evening! I can't believe I have made it 5 weeks.
How is everyone else doing? Yesterday was really hard. I sure was thinking that I was done with hard times. I suppose they will keep popping up every now and then. I hope everyone had a great smokeless weekend.

Gaea, OSB...You two are doing brilliantly. Building on your successes is the name of the game now.
*huggles gaea* I hope you feel better soon. The tonsils extraction will be a breeze, there's so much less chance of the site becoming infected immediately after the op now that you don't smoke too. Result!! |

today 3 whole months....the 11th...imagine that wow.
I read something here then decided enough was enough and boom here i am 3 whole months later...i made the decision no one else, me,,,, i need to grab a hold of the good stuff.... being sick has made me crabby, irritable, sad and and probably not good company.... this makes me smile... ![]() yesterday i put a smoke out for Day....I looked at it rolled it around probably had that intense "i want to smoke" look on my face, as a comment was made...i really didn't want to smoke i just wanted to do what i did with it, roll it around and look at it....

Woo hoo! That is grand, gaea. I don't think I could do that with a cigarette. Putting in my hands.....I don't think I could resist at this time....That " just one" would get me, thinking I could just have one more and not another...Kinda like Lay's potato chips.
I am really glad you have made it, gives me hope that I can too. Tomorrow is my 6 week mark. Doing those things that I normally smoke while doing is still hard. It is getting a little. Keep it up gaea, to all those thinking about it and those that have succeeded for years! I love reading the successes! OSB Quote:

Just wanted to offer up my support for all of you trying to quit!
![]() I quit smoking 3 years ago and it was the single best thing I have ever done for my health. I no longer wheeze or cough all the time and I definitely sleep better. (Plus, I've saved a WHOOOOOLE lot of money!) You can DO IT!
