Juan :) Many congrats. You are on your way. I can tell how driven you are!

Glad to hear it Amy :) It's not a cakewalk right off the bat for all of us by any means, but it's certainly not the big baddie we all had been conditioned to believe. If you haven't read Allen Carr, his book/audible was sooo comforting to me at first. I had the Easy Way on audible and Easy Way for women on kindle. (My hb read the easy way for women, haha. But he still took a lot from it, I've seen this man read like 5 books in the last 14 years and this was one of them.) Whenever I had nagging feeling I was missing something, I'd pick it up and start reading, or turn on the audible. Didn't matter where I was in it, it calmed me down.

Welcome! Wonderful to meet you. Very good job on an awesome quit. :D

Welcome and congrats on the great decision to quit smoking! Use whatever tools necessary to help your success! My hb quit smoking using an e cig, he didn't end up using it for long, but he's almost a year smoke free now.

Do you...by chance...take smiley requests?

I haven't been on long today, but I was keeping an eye out for an Amy and IamDoingit check in. I may just not have found it yet. Thinking of you guys, We have all been there! Doing ok?

I am totally not kidding - I just got the chills. So much better to be healthy and not have to deal with all the stress smoking causes.

Soon I hope, soon!! You just lemme know when you are ready for the next rec's :D

Keep up the great work! Nothing but good things for you from here on out :)

Keep the smileys coming!

Thinking of you Trish! I hope everything is ok. Sending all my good thoughts your way. Please keep us posted.

Please! No talking of ice cream until Saturday...I'm on the wagon...

I agree with everyone! You do what works best, there is no quit that is better than another :)

And quality of life too. Ugh. I hate cigs!

Chicken breast, broccoli, and white rice. Boring! But I had a bunch of 'pop chips' after and they were quite good.

I have a order of 'sugar' lotion, wash and body spray on the way. I have not smelled it before so I am hoping I will love it! 'Jet set' is kind of a zen spa scent I love too. You try that one? I have 'bananaberry' going in the warmer now. But I digress.....

I'm going to have to start sneaking some of these smileys for myself! ;-)

All my best friends still smoke. And they tell me that I give them hope. No one *wants* to be a smoker. When I am the odd man out not smoking, I just remind myself that there is no choice to debate over, because I took smoking off the table as an option a long time ago. Friend gave me a scarf as a belated birthday present a few weeks ago. I know we've all smelled like smoke before, but that scarf about knocked me over. I would not say a thing because I would not want to make her feel bad, but wow. It's not good. So glad we don't have to worry that we smell like that anymore

Cherry vanilla and candy apple are my faves scentsies!

Well done!! You are really doing it :)

I remember my first day was quite...surreal....I wasn't 100% sure I could do it (I got educated as I went along) but I was just so SHOCKED I could make it through the first day without completely falling apart at the seams. I thought, at the time, that it certainly wasn't the best day of my life. When I look back on it now, it kinda was one of the best days of my life. So very, very happy for you guys! Read, write, do whatever you need to. Every day is easier than the last. Every day of your life from here on out will be better than the day before. ^_^

Well said, me too! Welcome Suz. Love the smiley! Here's another kinda cute one

Glad to hear it went ok!!

Omigosh stop you guys!! :lol: :lol: :lol:

What about coffee, candy crush, and 90's tunes? ;)
