Yes Evelyn...cold turkey is hard...but, in my opinion, its no harder than any other way...you have to stand strong, and just get through to yourself that you ARE NOT going to smoke...it is a choice, and you know the right one...I just passed 5 months (today)..and I can say I was in your shoes a few months ago, but now I can crush any urge I get pretty quickly, before it gets ahold of me......none of it comes easy and without some effort on your part, but it is SOOO do-able!... We all have our reasons why we quit..those reasons didnt change for you just because the addiction started to speak a bit louder ;) stand your ground and get through this urge, you will get stronger with each one..and it will get weaker....gotta trust me on that one.

Thanks guys../...gals ;) ...it IS great to be racking up the quit months :) ! ..and yep Bacon...its a rare time I think about it these days, and when it does hit me, its easier to remind myself why I am no longer a smoker ...Thanks Amy.....Ive read your progress...(I read alot, but seldom post)...you have a good quit going, keep it going, and remember, there is nothing to gain by giving into an urge... . again, thanks everyone, and many of you on here is to "blame" for me getting to this point.. :)

I am nosey...so you should ask everything on a thread...lol..j/k...seriously, I would assume anything too personal should be done via PM...just general questions, start a thread..you never know who will contribute ;)

Both of these pics are a few years old...they are the only ones I have on photo bucket.. The Bichon is my wifes...his name is "Baxter" . The beagle is my youngest daughters.....well, it was until she went off to college 6 years ago...since then "Bayleigh" adopted me ;)
