Asparagus looks great- I have tried to get a garden going the area is to wet.. I will have to try raised beds maybe start small.

I am wondering if I still need to count the days- I have to say I am doing this well. I am wondering if I should post my SOS for myself. At this point I am thinking there will be no SOS but one day there might be.. If I were going to smoke it would have been yesterday. Planning dinner with neighbor coming over and planned on pork loin on the smoker outside. I had to go to the store for the pork loin so I pick the closest store (Stop N Shop) they have only very small pork loins. I discovered this after all of my other shopping was in the cart. So now I have to go to another store a little bit farther away (Shoprite) to get my pork loin. Boy was I aggravated. The thought was in my head I want a cigarette- but then there was the next though I don't smoke. It was as easy as that. I am loving this. It is not always comfortable. Thoughts do pop into my head I could use a cigarette. Then I breath in deep and discover I can actually breathe way better - still a little wheeze in time I am hoping this will heal. I have to hope my body heals because I poisoned it. At the age of 58 my risk of lung cancer will be that of a non smoker. This is something to look forward to in the healing process. I don't really exercise but it seems that I am constantly busy with house work and outside maintenance. Maybe I will try to take up walking to further my lung capacity. My second pledge for today NOPE Not One Puff EVER.

Thanks Nancy!

Congrats Juan- you did it! Very proud for you. :)

Hi Tiffany, Sorry I hope your day gets better- you got this.

17

I just ordered lunch leaving in about 10 minutes to go pick up.

Yes- it is funny you don't realize the things that you shouldn't do until the day after. Fell better soon.

Too cute

Congratulation on 3 months! :)

Yes

I messaged him didn't get anything back- hope he is good

I haven't seen you on the board and I am wondering how you are doing. You are my quit buddy.

Thanks for sharing- I am there

Hi Jimmy, I am Amy new here 1 week nice to meet you.

Never mind really dumb question.. Dottie Enjoy your new addition

Welcome new kitty- what is her name?

Congratulations Andrew - Happy for you 8 months is awesome!

Happy Monday Morning to everyone! I know this is only my 6th day- but I am still on top of the world. I can feel that my breathing is a little bit easier and my morning smokers cough doesn't last as long as it was. My other half just told me he can tell I sleep better at night not as much snoring(LOL) he said my lungs must be opening up. I already am less fatigued. Must be the extra oxygen I am getting. This is all I need. I am not going back no matter what. NOPE for the second time today. I know have already said this and probably sound like a broken record but this time around is easy. I have seen on the board Easy Peasy... it is the truth. I hope everyone is well.

Congratulations on your quit day April!

Holy cow I am still counting the days and today is day 6 NOPE for me

El Bandito, I am so happy you didn't smoke- this tough time will pass- you have this.

Amazing weekend- no issues. Maybe 4 pieces of Nicorette for each day not bad. I can't believe it is Sunday night already and I haven't smoked in 5 days. There is the occasional thought but it disappears as quick as it comes. I am happy. Very short 5th day entry sorry I still have to put dinner away and clean up before bed.

I am not sure how to answer the question What made you decide to quit. I have always wanted to quit I have always known that smoking is not good for you. I have always known that my second hand smoke was not good for other people. I have tried to quit many times without success. I have always known that I should quit. This time there was really no choice I did not have to decide to quit .. I had to quit for me. Okay I am going to say I did not make this choice until I joined the quit train. I would not have done it otherwise. :)

HI Soozie= better late than never Sweet Dreams!
