  1. Lisa you’re doing so great. You’re such an inspiration! Boo, you’re a superhero. Me, I tried a 20-minute “Zumba Strong” intensive on YouTube. Pretty challenging and fun!
  2. Used to be trying Time now to live differently Just be- no effort
  3. PeaceTrain replied to BKP's topic in Socializing
    WooHoo! Thanks, MQ!!
  4. Sheesh, Boo. Your easy days would kill mere mortals! Keeping to the early to bed early to rise mantra. 30 minutes on the elliptical this morning. Instead of the usual 3 miles, I got to 3.22, which doesn't seem like a big difference but I was trying to go a little faster and it was definitely more effort than the .22 would reflect.
  5. I'm so sorry you had such a harrowing experience. You are right though... smoking is risky behavior. As addicts, we tune out of the risks so we can continue smoking. Thanks for your post- Such a wake-up call to everyone to be vigilant about our health even after quitting. Best wishes, PeaceTrain
  6. Beazel! This is fantastic! Great respect to you for your victorious year!
  7. WTG Max! What a fantastic accomplishment!
  8. Congratulations! What a solid quit you've got going!
  9. Fantastic job, BTR- Congratulations to you! KTQ!
  10. Glad to say I did get my workouts in yesterday morning and this morning too: 1/2 hour on the elliptical yesterday and 1/2 hour cardio kickboxing this morning. I have to get up earlier especially with my new commute but it makes a huge difference in how I feel both physically and emotionally so it’s definitely worth it. So my new bedtime now is 9pm. Alarm goes off at 5am. Oops already late. G’night all!
  11. WTG, Barry. You're racking up those months. KTQ!
  12. That sux, Doree. I'm sorry. Buy I must say when things like this happen, after the initial disappointment, the belief I hold that everything happens for a reason and even though you'll likely not ever know the reason since it won't happen on the original date, acceptance of reality brings peace. For me. Just thought I share that for whatever it's worth.
  13. Welcome Kev and congrats on your quit. Whatever works for you is the best thing you can do. Just steer clear of smoking and eventually you'll be steering your classic with your dog's head hanging out the window catching a good breeze. Looking forward to following your journey to freedom.
  14. Stzr500, all respect and admiration for your honesty and openness. As difficult as that sounded, I'd bet there's even more to it that couldn't be fully expressed in words because there probably aren't adequate word to describe what you went through. Quitting smoking was an epiphany to me also so I can relate to the part about having to face emotions that went up in smoke for so many years. I'm still dealing with that part of it and it's been really tough for me at times. At other times, I have these moments of pure joy that make me feel like, "Now THAT'S what being normal feels like. Yes, I CAN make my own dopamine and serotonin, thank you very much!" All of us here on this board can feel very proud of kicking the smoking addiction. It's hard core.
  15. Congratulations, JB! You’ve fought for your freedom. Hope you’re enjoying it!
  16. Congratulations Lin!!!!! Hope you’re feeling great. Celebrate and reward yourself big time. You’ve earned it!
  17. Great job, Lisa! Yesterday 1 hour dance aerobics. Today just a walk- less than 2 miles. Committing here to get up in time for my workout tomorrow.
  18. Latoya! 3 months is an important milestone. Hope you're feeling more secure and peaceful in your quit. Congratulations!!!
  19. Your best girl and sausages both in your near future! You will enjoy both very soon, dear Doreen.
  20. Brag away! You're earning the rights. I've been fighting a cold the last two weeks so I've backed off a bit. Been needing the extra sleep big time.
  21. Back on track with 20 minutes elliptical yesterday morning and a 3 hour routine at the gym this morning: 30 minutes Zumba; 45 minutes kickboxing; 44 minutes spinning; 60 minutes barre. This is my new Friday routine, but I missed last week 'cause the gym had a modified pared down schedule due to the storm. Boo got his workout in. How's it going for you, Lisa?
  22. You're my hero, Boo- in the gym and especially on the quit train! I look up to you as a mentor admiring your two year quit and appreciating all your helpful advice and insights given to me and other passengers on this train, cheering us on all through our quits. Congratulations on your special day and always. Your friend, PeaceTrain
