Okay- I am a new non smoker. I am 48 years old started at 13 I was up to 1 pack and a half or more per day. Bad Smokers cough and pressure on my chest. I had no plans to quit but I came upon the board and picked a date. 5 days I am amazed. I new I had to quit but the frame of mind just wasn't there. All of the literature and all of the positive support has been a great. For the board you must know I would not have done this otherwise. :)

I have found it to be easy this time but it wasn't always I think support is very important- I wasn't planning on quitting at all until I came across this board. With the board I have to say it is easy

Way to go 7 days as a non smoker :) Congrats! :)

Good Sunday Morning- I do my NOPE pledge everyday- didn't need to be online all day was very busy with chores even got to give the dog a bath. Anyway I have to say this is easier than I ever thought it could be- I am sure that everyone knows the saying don't make a mountain out of a molehill...Well in the past I think that is what I did in my prior attempts to quit. It is really not that hard it is a clear choice that I do not smoke. TODAY IS DAY 5 FOR ME I am very happy- yesterday only 4 pieces of gum throughout the day. Thank you everyone for checking all is well. I hope you all are doing great as well. :)

No smoking for me on this beautiful spring day. I pledge NOPE

Hi Soozie, New- 3rd day :) Nice to meet you in this great place. Congratulations on your quit!

Good Morning Everyone Day 3 has arrived and I still feel on top of the world. I have a feeling of Euphoria. I have tried to quit before many times and it was never like this. For the first time my eyes are wide open and I am doing this no matter what. I am at work again and just ordered breakfast to get delivered (pork roll egg and cheese) not the healthiest but I am hungry oh orange juice to go with that. I already had two glasses of water and I am going for a third. There are times at home where I need to just take a few deep breathes and concentrate on breathing to get through a crave and then in the morning after I am done drying my hair (this is funny) I have to have a cigarette and then I am like I don't smoke. So basically I talk to myself. I am happy it is Friday. The work week is over and the weekend is mine. No plans to go anywhere this weekend just staying home and maintaining the homestead. I always have a ton of stuff that I want to get done on the weekends so I will be keeping busy. So I work in a small office and normally take out my 1 little bag of garbage every Friday before the end of the day. My normal smoking spot was next to the dumpster away from the door and out of view. I left my butt pile there by the dumpster until there are about 10 and then pick them up and throw them in the dumpster. This is my 3rd day not smoking and my butt pile was there next to the dumpster. The happy ending is I just picked up my last butt pile. I know I will be posting over the weekend- normally weekends I do not turn my computer on but this is different this is something I need to do.

I vow to love, honor, and cherish myself until I die. I will not poison myself with smoke because I care to much and I want to live. I want to say Thank You again to everyone on this board. I have more control over my actions than I ever thought I could. This is Awesome :) And yes- I am posting away

Awesome post- I love it - I no longer have the same friend that you had

Good Morning! 3rd day NOPE honestly this time I think it is for the rest of my life :)
