  1. OK. Who's taking #1? Let's go peeps!
  2. #2's the lie or else your hubby never reveals what his middle name is - it's one or the other!

  4. It's a huge sport in Quebec here (backwoods Quebec that is). There's no more timber harvesting now, which is what employed most people, so there's NO work in the backwoods areas of Quebec which is probably 95% or the total area. They live off Snowmobiling for 6 months of the year and ATV 4 Wheeler's for the rest. Of course weather dictates how well they do in those seasons and in recent years ..... not so great due to wildly changing weather patterns.
  5. OK - we call 'em 4-wheeler's here The old style ones Used to be 3 wheeler's or trikes.
  6. Where's the pitcher of Beer? There needs to be beer to wash that sweet Momma down

  11. Yes! You KNOW that smoking is bad for you but that junkie thinking creeps in and it can be strong in the early days. Our worst enemy in quitting is ourselves. Controlling your thoughts is what's need and you CAN do that. When that junkie thinking starts creeping in - push it out with thoughts of the benefits of quitting. Those good things you are already noticing. You don't smell of stale smoke all the time (and that really is brutal to others). You're spending less $$ daily. Your food tastes better already your breathing in only fresh air. There's a ton of good stuff to focus your thoughts on. And, best of all, self pride in KNOWING you can beat this SOB addiction at it's own game
  12. Here's a classic: Just one would help relieve the stress I'm having in my life at the moment!

  14. Huge congrats Doreen! 6 years is pretty cool and I know you worked hard to get here so be sure to celebrate and treat yourself to something real special. You my friend deserve nothing but the best!
  15. 1. Is True - ate a bunch of great food and heard some pretty different music (Polka anyone lol). Monday was a Holiday here were I live so that's why it was on the Monday. Good deductive reasoning tho Linda 2. Is true although I had to break down and wear actual shoes tonight for a fancy-pants dinner with friends. Even wore the Flips for mowing the lawn and amazingly, still have 5 toes on each foot. 3. Is the lie! Boring brown until late 20's when grey started coming. White by mid 40's but ..... still have a full head of it so I guess that's something? (Never heard of Toe (Tow) Head before lol). Appears you're up Saz
  16. #1 Yesterday I went to a Polish street festival. #2 I have not worn any footwear other than flip-flops on my feet in the past 6 weeks. #3 When I was younger I had black hair.
  17. It always passes given enough time. All you need is an unwavering commitment to take back your life. We here have all walked in your shoes along the path you're on right now. We know there are challenges - lots of them but .... we also know you can get through them. It can get ugly at times but that's what builds your pride of accomplishment down the road. You know you have given all you have in exchange for your freedom! It's worth it - you deserve better than a smokey future
  18. That's great NoNic! That's the way it's done in the early days, 1 min. & 1 crave at a time. Every craving your beat strengthens you and weakens that Nicodemon who is working against your better interests. Keep breathing through those craves

  20. Good job Diane! You seem to be right on track in this quitting thing. As others have said, time will work it's magic on getting you settled in and comfortable with your new, nonsmoking lifestyle. We all wish it was a quicker process but considering how long we conditioned ourselves as smokers, it shouldn't come as any surprise that it takes awhile to reprogram our brains. Just keep doing what you're doing and you'll be fine
  21. #1 is the Lie!
  22. Great decision NNC! Quitting is the best think you will ever do for yourself! Read all you can here and watch as many Joel videos as you can. Educating yourself about this addiction is one of the greatest tools you will have to lead you to freedom. Take it 1 minuet, one hour and one day at a time initially. Just pledge your NOPE every day (Not One Puff Ever). It s that simple (not easy but simple). You will have a legion of people here to support you and answer any questions you might have along the way. Let's get this done for good!
  23. LOL - Having some supper - sorry. (Pig pallets and dinner scraps from the human's table). You're Up Jillar!! #1 (LIE) - No fear pf heights. Have sky dived twice in the days when you went on your own, not strapped to a seasoned jumper. Would have gone again but my chute was packed backwards on my second jump and I landed in a cow field a few miles away from the drop zone (Lots of cows in the field too!!) Cut my loses then and there. No more tempting fate by jumping out of a plane for me #2 - Yes, moved back into the parents house twice. Both time as I was making the transition from working in the USA and Canada. Not sure who it pissed of more ..... me or them? I expect them #3 - I managed the campaign for a candidate running in a municipal election for city councilor years ago and he did win! Turns out, he was not only a real A-hole but a heavy cocaine user to boot so we parted ways. He went on to even greater heights in Provincial politics later on.
  24. 1. I have extreme acrophobia (fear of heights). 2. I moved back home to my parents house twice for brief periods after leaving home originally. 3 I once managed a successful political campaign.

About us

QuitTrain®, a quit smoking support community, was created by former smokers who have a deep desire to help people quit smoking and to help keep those quits intact.  This place should be a safe haven to escape the daily grind and focus on protecting our quits.  We don't believe that there is a "one size fits all" approach when it comes to quitting smoking.  Each of us has our own unique set of circumstances which contributes to how we go about quitting and more importantly, how we keep our quits.
