He is getting in shape so he can keep up with those grand babies he is waiting for.

That actually is heartwarming. To have a special relationship with your sister. I always wanted a sister. I had three brothers.

I'm still here.

You must have had an angel on your shoulder. Good maneuverability Boo!

If this is an example of what my party will be, bring it on........

Nope

Welcome hesteralumni23. I am very impressed that you realize the need to quit at your age. You sound like a girl who is confident in who you are and what is best for you. I think quitting should be easier for you. Know that we are here to support you along the way. Stay close to the forum and read as much as you can about the addiction. Read what other quitters have posted about their quitting journeys. You can do this sweetie.

Thanks for sharing your secrets.

I'm drooling. I'll take the recipe. That looks like one for my husband. Other men watch sports, mine watches the cooking channel!

Looks like that little girl has her mommies character. To funny. Dinner with a smile!

Nope because...

Beautiful and colorful.

I am so amazed at the education I get on this forum.

Nope

So glad to see you back Michelle. We would never give up on a quitter no matter how many quits it takes. Just stay close to the forum, pledge nope everyday and reach out for support. I hope this is your final quit. The power and freedom are amazing.

331 days seems so much more impressive than 10 mos. and 26 days!

I agree with jillar @notsmokinjo. Life is too short to live this way. You are so smart and talented. There has to be a better job out there.

Not One Puff Ever!!!!

Now I know you are superwoman. You work, iron and hang your wash on the line. Please don't tell me you use a rock to wash the clothes on. I could not imagine working and doing all you do. They keep talking about going to those type of school schedules here. I would not have made it driving school bus if we didn't have the 3 months off in the summer.

I hear ya jillar. There aren't too many decent programs anymore and I can't stand the reality tv

Okay, I am pretty proud of my pots this year. I plant them all myself. I'll even give you a full frontal view because I perfectly coiffure the bushes, just finished mulching and straightening my bricks. It is amazing how much more time you have when you don't have to keep stopping for a smoke!

I planned many times to quit. I planned and made an appointment with a hypnotist and that plan failed. I planned and made an appointment at the Cleveland Clinic for their smoking cessation and went to one appointment - that plan failed. I planned to quit this day and planned to quit that day. I would buy the patches and would use half before returning to smoking. I even tried the gum. When I found the forum, I started reading and decided that I wanted to be a part of this group. I just stopped. My only plan now is to continue smoke free. I do not know what the magic formula of this forum is. I did start to have a high regard for the people fighting to save lives. I wanted to give them success. I could not let them down.

You would think the uniforms come in wrinkle free. She is still in school. All the kids are on summer break here in the US I try to stand next to the dryer and hang them as they are still tumbling. I also have a steam setting on my dryer that helps.

Plain and simple I had no plan. I was fortunate enough to find the forum and do it with support. I think the biggest part of quitting is realizing that it is possible and everyone has the power within to do it. I would advise your friend to do the homework and read all the information available here. Hopefully it will help ease her into the process needed to quit.
