Well I made it  through the first week! My badge from my app!

Congratulations, Diane on your First Week of Freedom !

This is a very big deal and you need to reward yourself.

It’s funny I love all the little badges that app gives me. The app is quit now in case anyone wants  to get it.

That is fantastic Diane, congratulations

 

Somedays I thought I might cave. But than I remembered all the  fatigue,  nausea, and moodiness I have had. And I thought better of it. I sure don’t want to go  backwards. Plus I hate that my life  revolved around cigarettes. Where am I going to have one. Do I have enough to last. When are they leaving so I can go smoke etc etc.

THIS is what will get you through! Thinking like this is your best tool for staving off those monster cravings. Never go back - it's too hard to get to where you are now. Moving forward is the only logical plan  

That’s an  understatement lol. My hubby is sick of me right now. I have been very grumpy. And everything gets on my nerves lol. But I have started enjoying the pool every afternoon. And a few white claws.  That’s hard seltzer in case anyone hasn’t heard of them before they are delicious and only 2 carbohydrates. It’s a win win for me!

Congratulations Diane!  I know that first week was really tough but keep up the great work!   You are doing great!

Thanks again everyone. This forum has been a huge help to me. It’s a great place to  educate. And also to vent and get good advise. I know without a  doubt  it would’ve been much harder if I didn’t have the forum  to go to.

You are on your way now Diane.  Once the tough week is over, you can conquer the craves.  

We love helping you achieve your freedom.  It is exciting for us, as it is for you. 

Keep that quit going!!!!!!! 

 

Here's another badge and yay you!

You did it!!!! Great Job!!!

You are awesome, Diane !!!

 

Nicely done @Diane R!!!

Ankush thank you 2 weeks now  yippee!

Love these badges lol

Congrats on 2 weeks, Diane. 💪

Thanks MLML. It feels wonderful to be smoke free 2 weeks. And I’m feeling a lot better too. Still having  insomnia and a little short of breath if I do a lot. But there are so many more  positives. 

Glad you feel so much better Diane. Mention and celebrated the positives as often as possible, it wil help you build a solid quit :). 

Look at those numbers @Diane R!! Keep up the fight!!!

Two weeks is splendid progress.

You are doing great, Diane.

Remember to reward yourself for every crave/trigger conquered.

Yay Diane, two weeks is awesome!

Halfway through your first month, Diane!  How fabulous it that?  Very. 

 

Glad to hear you're feeling better already.  Congratulations and keep up the great work.

 

Thanks everyone. Went to dinner last night as a reward. Hope everyone has a great Monday. I have my granddaughter coming over in a little while to spend the night. Her and I will be doing girly things this afternoon!
