Glad to hear you got through the day with no casualties. the table looks amazing! Re-training the brain... Dont dread these events, instead embrace them and look forward to them as a non-smoker...it's something you need o be proud of...your family and friends are proud of you for it. Well done!!

Coffee drank, wife off to work, so out to the garage I go... Rummage through the attic to find all of my outside Christmas lights, and start putting them up. They say we are having a heat wave today... All the snow is gone, and It might even reach 50* F... .... But...it IS Northern Ohio and approaching winter, so that means no sunshine for about 5-6 months...nothing but grey!

Thanks everyone!!!! I'm sorry that I am just acknowledging this, I seen this earlier, but didn't have time to respond. What was I thinking when I quit right at the holiday?... My God! It's been so hectic here this year, I can't imagine what it was like for m 5 years ago when I was going through the peak of my withdrawals !! BUT...that's a little something for you newbies.... It had to have been a living hell, but apparently no all that consuming...not only was I able to do it, I don't really have any vivid memories of how "bad" it was! ... And for that I have all the great people of the train to thank! This is the most diverse bunch of characters I have ever come across. But, by taking a little from each one, I was able to piece together a game plan that I was able to follow to the end! I was never one to post on the "N.O.P.E. thread, but that phrase went through my head a million times a day...and I still tell that to myself knowing the addiction isn't gone, but lying in wait! I have no craves, or any desire to smoke, but, a guy has to stay vigilant !! There was a time I was on this board all day, everyday..... I may have had this site set as my homepage on my computer! My advise to any of you who are early into your quit, is to visit here often, and BECOME INVOLVED!,, even if it's just to post how you are feeling that day... By becoming involved here, it's easier to connect with others that are going through the Sam thing you are... We have all been at day one... My goal is to never quit counting...as long as my number goes up, I'm headed the right direction!... I know I should drop in more often and post, but so how life doesn't seem to want to slow down just yet.... I DO pop in , and still try to reach out and offer words of encouragement , but it is usually in the form of a PM... Again, thanks to everyone who sent congratulations, your all th best!... And to all you ladies who are having trouble sending those naked selfies, keep trying... I am very patient ...lol..

Next week (11/20) will mark 5 years! I quit cold turkey because “ it was time” i have had 4 grandchildren since I quit! I retired from my real job, gained 25lbs and decided I was getting to fat and went back to work.... I’m still too fat., maybe i need different job. All 4 daughters, 8 granddaughters, lone grandson and various son-in-laws all doing good. I’m not saving any money since I quit smoking... I’m spending it!! Since I quit I have been to Pompano Beach, twice... Marco Island, Sanibel Island, and Fort Myers Fl.... on top of that we take at least 1 trip a year to the Outer Banks N.C... our 2019 house is reserved for May... talking about a second trip in October. There will be no inheritance for the kids! in 2016 my wife suggested we buy a new Mustang Gt... I really like that woman! ? i need to buy a Harley so I can ride to California with Bakon... maybe the wife will read this.. ?
