Missed your big day but I hope it's not too late to send my heartfelt congratulations your way. You're da 💣.

Just got back from a 6 day backpacking trip on the John Muir Trail in Kings Canyon National Park. Probably the most challenging hike I've ever done, but the most beautiful too. Would not have been possible 4 years ago. This pic is at Middle Rae Lake.

Congratulations Jack. Glad you made the best decision possible 2 years ago.

2 years ain't just a bunch of fluff. Congratulations on another year of freedom Wee Fluffy Me!

Congratulations Linda and welcome to the Lido Deck! From someone who started out with so much doubt and fear (and let's face it, high drama) you really evolved into a solid quitter who's primary concern is supporting others through this process. You deserve a party to end all parties!

I am so excited for you Linda. What a great accomplishment!

I gave myself frequent rewards like a dinner at a nice restaurant or new sneakers. After some time and significant savings I'd go for bigger stuff like a new sofa or new truck. But, by far, the best reward came from my body itself. I went from a tired couch potato to an extremely active hiker and backpacker. Here's a picture of the reward I'm giving myself very soon. Two weeks of backpacking the John Muir Trail.

Congratulations Andy 🏆🏆🏆

Could we please have a little decorum at this party?!? Well that answers that question.

Q. What did Cinderella say when she got to the ball? A. Slurp, Gag, Cough!

Sure sounds like a great reason to celebrate to me. Freedom is surely worth the effort. Thanks for sharing your journey with us Reci.

Great job Diane. I used another app that gave me badges and told me the health improvements I was achieving. I too found it motivating. Keep up the good work. You’re doing this!

"...no more Michelle Bashing, for that will not help" And the support and encouragement has worked really great, right? You are in deep denial my friend. You don't even come out and say "I smoked". Instead you talk in some abstract terms about your junkie thinking telling you to have one. I had to read your post twice to figure out that you actually relapsed. Again. I, for one, am going to put you on "ignore" because I think that's exactly what you are doing with the advice you are getting here. Hope you figure this all out. You don't know what you're missing.

Here's a video of my wife during her morning grooming routine. She does this after she bleaches her mustache.

Michelle I find it worrisome that you keep saying you can't smoke because you don't have the money or transportation to get cigarettes. Sometime soon you will have the opportunity to get some. That's when it's going to come down to your commitment not to smoke. Please work on strengthening your resolution. That, not money or a ride to the store, is what will prevent you from lighting up. You can do this. It just comes down to getting your mind in the right place.

Not for the fainthearted. It seemed like the annual high school talent show was going to be another boring array of off-key clarinet solos and out-of-step dance routines. That is, until they called up Jimmy Pudtugger. Principle Smith asked , "What talent are you going to perform this evening Jimmy?" "I'm going to fart the alphabet" Jimmy replied. Principle Smith looked taken aback, but after a moment decided that at least this was an unusual deviation from the dreary acts that had been performed so far. "Very well. Proceed". Jimmy lowered the microphone stand to butt level, dropped his trousers, and settled his ass cheeks inches from the mic. To ensure he was on key, he pulled out a harmonica, let out a note, and sang "ME, me me" in C Minor. He then let forth a melodious chorus of triumphant farts: Phttt-A Phttt-B Phttt-C Phttt-D Phttt-E Pfttt-F Suddenly, out of nowhere, a blast of putrid diarrhea shot out his ass, drenching the microphone and soiling half the stage. Principle Smith jumped from his chair and ran to Jimmy. "Oh my goodness! Are you alright? What happened?" "No big deal" replied Jimmy. "I just had to clear my throat".

Let the countdown begin. Moving from months to days. Congratulations MLMR!

It takes absolutely no effort now to remain smoke free. I have zero desire to smoke. Ever. After 39 years as a smoker I didn't think it would ever be possible to get to that point, but it is. You'll get there Diane. Just keep going.

Smearing one's thighs with Pop Tart jam (if that's what it really is) prevents chaffing from unicorns. However, it does cause constipation to the animal. I found that my sleep began to normalize after a month or so.

OMG.....I rarely look at mine, but apparently I hit $20K today.

Stay strong and focused Edy. Just get through today for now.
