Gus

Hello @Lawrence! One of my sisters drives me insane telling me all about this show she watches about this hidden treasure on Oak Island. lol It is intriguing, but she is beyond obsessed. Anyway, it’s nice to have you join our forum. If you would accept any advice I would like for you to know that this will all be so much easier if you learn what to expect when you finally quit beforehand and no matter how bad it gets, push through it; it gets better. It really does!

Congratulations @IQ4me! I this!!

Hello! I’m glad that you joined us here! It is a trial @Anita! I will say it’s hell! Just don’t quit your quit! 11 days is a long time! You’ve come so far! It gets better, I promise it does. And the way you feel will be so good. Being nicotine free is so worth the anguish. I hope that you will stay close to us and you can post as much as you need to. Good luck on sticking your quit!

I love Brussel Sprouts!

Life long, small rural town, Georgia girl here! Peaches, dirt roads, and sweet iced tea. Farm country, peace, and quiet. The closest city would be Augusta,—Home of the Masters! I quit smoking because I was so tired of the stench. I was tired of blowing all of that money into thin air. I was tired of ostracizing myself from life. I am a bit of a social misfit. Oh and I. Love. Shrimp.

Congratulations @Katgirl! WooHoo!! Time sure has flown by since you’ve joined us here! A month already!

Happy Birthday To You

Just Do It and Git ‘r Done @Abby!

Friends and family aren’t going to get it. They aren’t going through it, so they have no clue. Here; we get it. Here; we can help you through the roughest times. Reach out. Save your quit at all cost.

Congrats on 5 months quit!! Thanks for your Thought For Today! Sometimes they just ‘fit’ exactly.

Congrats to you!!! Thanks for all the encouragement you give us to get out there and enjoy life, nicotine free and as well as we are physically able!!!

This is awesome @Katgirl! I’m happy that you are going to be enjoying this trip!!! Cross country trip of a lifetime!

Sorry, no offense meant. Frickin’ nicotine fries all of our emotional sensibilities sometimes. I truly hope you find peace concerning your friend and her family. I’m truly sorry that she and anyone that has to go through this with her—you know what? I watched my husband die a miserable death from cancer and their was no peace or understanding while that was happening, it didn’t come until afterwards. So, just keep on dealing with it as you are. You got through the initial two bad spots. Evidently, being a rage machine is your way of dealing with the worst life throws at you. So go for it!!! Rage at the machine!!! And seriously, I meant no offense above. I apologize.

Keep your quit Linda. Let it out. Keep speaking until you’ve said it all. You’ve developed a following. We are here for you. Newbies and old school alike. It’s time to prove to us that you stand by your words. That you believe what you say. Those words that have given so much encouragement to others. You don’t give a sh*t?! You are going to use your pain ridden, dying friend as an excuse to go back to your master? Those of us that you helped with your words? Your empty words that mean nothing to you? I know that you are angry, but you would do just as well to use your love of words and your ability to write to shoot off a round of letters to some tobacco companies or even to some of your government representatives asking for accountability to said tobacco companies. You don’t have to send them, but I can guarantee that you will not be wanting to give Nicodemon control over your life again by the time you are finished. Direct your anger and pain to the rightful party not upon yourself.

Happy 2nd month of your quit @Robbie!!!

Thanks @Abby! I’m feeling tons better. On my guard and forging forward. You always give the greatest encouragement! I’m so thankful that I found QuitTrain.

Really? Ketchup? I’ll take your word for it. HaHa I would have just topped it off with shredded cheese. Ohhh. Some spinach and mushroom too! Ohhh man! I don’t know how I’m supposed to get to sleep now.

@Boo!

OMG! You need to start doing this for us at least every other weekend. My stomach is growling and my mouth is watering! I just finished my own pathetic meal too. HaHa Your photography is excellent by the way. You’re so talented. I’m just going to sit over here and drool for awhile. also, I overcook everything. I ruin everything I cook. I’m pathetic at cooking. I don’t know how my children survived me. LOL Thank you for your attention to detail and I do love those plates.

Soooo? Was it as delicious as it sounded it was going to be? Were you full to bursting and needing a nap afterward? Do tell!

Hello @Meow! I hope that all is well with you? We’d love to hear from you!

Excellent. So true. Thank you. It’s hard. It’s so hard. And it hurts. Thank you for your honesty and for the pep talk!!!

WooHoo! Five years?! Congratulations @G67!
