Absolutely fantastic job MissDixie!!!

Great work Berk --- and the good news is it only gets better.

NOPE!!!!!!

Still moving forward each day realizing the benefits and using that to keep my quit going.

Trying to wrap my head around it but not working. Maybe it is my ear infection more like probably my age.

NOPE!!!!!!

Re-visiting childhood illness's like ear infections.

Kind of, have an ear infection of all things so I did not come online at all yesterday and just now came back on for a bit to catch up. Thanks for asking.

Give me my Cheerios or Shredded Wheat for breakfast and I am happy as a clam.

Welcome Bonnie, Good for you for taking that first step. Read and do research on this forum it will be of great help. Also remember the NOPE pledge, it really does get you through the day to make that commitment for 1 day to yourself. And remember we are all here to help you along the way, everyone here has given me that help.

NOPE!!!!!!

NOPE!!!!!

Big, welcome. You can do this just remember the NOPE pledge each day. Lots of people here to help and a lot of information on this forum that will help you, take time to read and it will help you greatly. I smoked for over 40 years and like Octain I am now 1 month in and getting stronger each day.

Outstanding Octain, as I have seen from your post's, you have seen the benefits. Now we are on are way to number 2 and it has been a great help with you along the way, keep strong.

NOPE --- And to Octain Happy 1 Month of quit -- way to keep to the NOPE pledge

Bakon is right --- NOPE --- it does work. Take some deep breaths, a glass of cold water and remember why you are quitting. It is doable, I am only 1 month in on my quit and I smoked for over 40 years over a pack a day. You can get through this.

^^^Loved it -- like I said before go Eagles (it's the team and how they play not how the fans behave)

Thank you all, in all the years I never thought I would be here, who would have thunk. The journey is just beginning but the light along the way is much brighter now.

NOPE!!!!!

Good going JKPK, I will join you tomorrow

NOPE!!!!!

With everything the Eagles went through this year I believe they should take it.

I hear what you say. I believe that making the quit you have to be honest with your self for the hard work to quit really sticks. If you do have other "chemical" addictions sometimes nicotine is the last one you give up. Also you have to look at how many cigarettes you had each day to the amount or use of other "chemicals" that were used. In my recent quit I have gone cold turkey, and not using any other substances (NRT, alcohol, weed, even coffee) in fact most of those items would have been a strong trigger for me. As I said I get what you say that "I quit smoking" may not be the entire story but if you are true to yourself then that is the important thing and will make you stronger in your quit.

NOPE!!!!!
