Such a pleasure to welcome you Mollie to the Lido Deck today! Congratulations for all the hard work you have done this past year in order to get here. Hope you have something special planned today in recognition of this great accomplishment. For now, take a well deserved seat on a lounge and relax while your friends, old and new, help you celebrate this special day

This one is a biggie Sparkzzz!! 1/2 year smoke fee is a huge accomplishment so make sure you celebrate this milestone in some special way. Congratulations Sparkzzz, you're halfway to that Lido Deck now

Welcome to Quit Train DV! As long as you are not repeating the same mistakes each time then .... that is considered progress I look forward to following your Life Long Quit here on the train !!

^^^^ Go for the shoes ................................ NOT the smokes BTW ..... Bakon loves shoes but NOT smokes

Meanwhile ...................... In Canada ............................. The Games continue

We DO like our BEER

I think the professional people (Dr. - Dentist and what ever) expect people to under-state the amount they smoke or drink therefore, if you are honest when asked by them, they figure you smoke or drink twice or three times what you are telling them so probably best to lie - by at least 1/2 ........ if not more Honest Doc .......I'm just a social drinker!

We are all still attempting to quit. There isn't really a point in time when any of us can say " That's it - I have now successfully quit for ever!" Perhaps if you could give us more specifics on what you want and what you are trying to accomplish, people might be able to determine if they can help you. For example: 1. People who have started their quit attempt within the past .... day, week, 2 weeks or whatever. 2. I want the 2 people to be no more than 1 day apart, 1 week apart (or whatever) in their quit dates. 3. I want to record messages from each person to the other to determine what quit smoking symptoms they are both experiencing. 4. I want to determine the differences in individual's reactions to what they are experiencing. 5. I want to determine what quit smoking products people are or are not using and how effective any products might be for the individual. Something like that maybe, although not necessarily those specific details. Then people could then decide whether they can help you or not. From my own experience, the first month of a person's quit is the most dramatic in terms of quit symptoms experienced and the effect those symptoms have on an individual's daily life. Also, this period (1st month) probably has the highest relapse rate overall at least from what I have observed.

Yeah, I was just going to comment on the porcine thing - lol We're always so undervalued

Yes - don't look too far out just yet. That's the way to handle this. Don't worry though, you will reach that point when you just KNOW you have the upper hand on this thing. For me it was 5 or 6 months. Others are shorter and some are longer but if you just keep moving ahead, it WILL happen. Keep the faith, especially through the threes (three days - three months). You're right on schedule
