I have no selfies. I am swimming and walking 2 mi 3/4 days a week. Losing the 30lbs @bakon added to my last photo. Getting strong, feeling well. Painting. Sewing. Writing. Fighting Rats in my courtyard. Listening to a lot of great tunes and making various playlists on a streaming site. Cooking really well and looking forward to visit from Daughter/Spouse/Father-In-Law and also Jazz Fest guests for whom I will make my Legendary Gumbo and have the sit down feast for 12. V. inspired by all my darling smoke free creatures here. Wishing I could help my two smoking friends in real life, they struggle so. Cold Turkey on A Whim Quit Six Years and Three Months The Best Decision I Ever Made Oh ! Quit Caffeine over a year ago and kind of accidentally, starting my third month alcohol free, thinking of staying sober for a year as a challenge and see how I like it. Quitting smoking has made it easier to honestly examine my life and be willing and able to change patterns that no longer serve me.

Your two purple twenty pound notes ! I used money as one of my prime motivators and added a day's smoke money in a big glass jar every day where I could see the progress. Think of new things to keep you busy. A new hobby, a new interest. These will keep you distracted from smokes and benefit you in many other ways. Some have used physical exercise and have really changed their lives from sedentary to happily active. It gets endorphins filling us with happy hormones. Tai Chi and Qi Gong are low impact practices easily done at home and really help with breathing. Meditation is v. helpful in keeping our brains fit. and don't forget to have fun with this !
