G’day NOPE .....Not One Puff Ever.... (replace Ever with Min,Hour, Day as required)

NOPE!!!!!!

Aw thanks, Jillar! I am feeling tons better today. Doctor said I had exacerbated COPD. Gave me a shot in the butt and 5 days of prednisone and an antibiotic. Breathing much better and less wheeze and cough. Looking forward to that improving over the next few days. I'm still a non smoker! Day 7!! Still getting regular cravings but shifting thought process and tasks and moving thru them.

NOPE...

NOPE!

NOPE!!!

Having a glass of white and a slice of Christmas cake ....might come back for seconds lol... I'm worth it !!!!

Nope

NOPE!!!!!!

Hi @ItsDeb, we were just thinking about you and hope you're feeling better today

Hi everyone! I'm looking forward to a very successful NOPE commitment. I'm currently on day 3 after 40+years of smoking. I have COPD, asthma, bronchitis and am just done taking meds so I can breathe enough to smoke. How ridiculous is that? But I've been doing it for years. Hubby still smokes but not in the house. Today is the hardest day so far. The coughing is annoying as hell and starting to give me a headache. I can and will do this. One day at a time. Congrats to all the success stories on here!

Good thing my butt has plenty of cushion I'm definitely looking forward to less COPD issues. I just hate it's taken me this long to get to this point. But NOPE it is!

Great job Debs....and JH..... Upwards and Onwards !!!

Welcome Patricia. Congratulations on your 9 months! Hopefully the no-nicotine-blues have subsided for you if that was an issue. 9 months lady you have it licked! Pat yourself on the back and enjoy the forum!

NOPE

NOPE!!!

Yay Jeff!! I'm glad you're still on board with me! We've so got this!!

That's Great News! I'm glad to hear you are feeling better! I somewhat understand what you are going through. My wife has had chronic bronchitis for about eight years (OPD). She uses an inhaler daily. When she gets really sick, she also has to take antibiotics and prednisone. Several times she has been given so much prednisone that she gets real puffed up and it can take months for her to get back to normal. She has never smoked, the doctors tell her that her attacks are triggered by allergies. Mostly certain types of mold. It's rough at times. Well, it's day seven for us. We can do this! Jeff

Quitting will stop the acceleration of C.O.P.D.... Best thing you can do for your health Deb's .... Jab in the butt.......Ouch !!!!!

Hi Deb, I'm glad you're feeling better already. Congratulations on a week quit, you too @JH63, you guys got this!

Great job JH! Quit as many times as you have to until your quit really sticks! Watch the Joel Spitzer videos for motivation and good counsel. Kinda like your own personal therapist. This is a great place to educate yourself and get support. Just keep quitting til the quit sticks!

NOPE...

NOPE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

NOPE!

I hope you get some help with your coughing issues when you go to the clinic. If it doesn't feel right to you, you should get it checked out. Especially with everything that is going around right now. Day 5 is behind me also. It was a little better day for me too. I pray that tomorrow is as good. I'm spending a lot of time using distractions to get past the urges and cravings. An air cigarette made out of a straw, hard candy, etc.. Sometimes all I need to do is just change what I'm doing, or where I'm at in the house for a little while. For as severe as they can be at times, they really don't last that long. Take Care! Jeff

Way to go and congratulations, Martian! All that money saved and life earned back! Woohoo!
