Congratulations @Christa326 for being 5 months smoke free. Well done Christa for building such a solid base for your quit and a life time smoke free. Its great to have you still on the train. Make sure you do something special to reward yourself and celebrate this milestone. We would love to here how you rewarded yourself.

Congratulations @Kate18 for being 1 month smoke free!!! Well done on being a whole month smoke free Kate. This is the hardest month of being smoke free and you have got through with your determination and your amazing baked goodies. Its great to see you NOPE each day and the determination and self commitment in those NOPEs you can do this sweetie, this is just the first of many anni posts coming your way. So rewards are really important during your quit, they are a major part of the whole process... so every day is a day to celebrate but your anniversaries are magical... let this day shine, just like you do.

G,day The girls went nuts over both the Beetles and Elvis and lets face it, I was still throwing rocks at girls.... My vote goes to Dylan

Not sure if it's the angle, but it looks perfectly fine now.

Good for you Christine, and you're almost done with hell week! A question: can you change your quit date to your new one and maybe put your old date in your signature or vise versus? I go by the quit date to give you the replies for where you are in your quit. I would hate to tell you, well at 7 months quit yadda yadda yadda......

Love this post C... You sound so positive !!!.....high five !!!

Nope going on 7 years - celebrate every single nope - they add up quickly!!

Heading out for a row at 10am. Dreary in Glasgow today...

It's not unusual. I still remember cravings hitting me periodically, but in waves, after a year. At airports of all places. The big picture is that the cravings will continue to grow weaker and less frequent. However this might be a good time to review the reasons you quit to begin with. Write the reasons down on a piece of paper and keep the list with you at all times. Revisit the Newbie Package and Joel's pages, and read and remember. Revisit any practices that helped you early on. Your resolve will become even stronger and the cravings will continue to weaken and become less frequent. Hang in there!! You've beat this thing and all you need to do is remain vigilant!

Have been feeling the same. We have worked so hard to get to this point and once we hit the milestone our old addiction tells us how we rewarded ourselves in the past. Proves that we need to still guard ourselves from relap at all times. As you know it will pass - set your next milestone - 2 years. Ps. I was talking to a fella just recently who relapsed after 24 years - can you believe that - 9 years later he is still smoking and is fighting the battle to try and quit again.

I knew you would keep that great quit you have Positive thoughts that everything at work ends up well

Wansit, you are not going to stumble because you are strong. No matter what circumstances life throws at us, it will not have to change our quit. Life has many bumps in the road but we always navigate through them, and I have found that I always come out stronger on the other side. Hang tough. Don't let the uncertainty wobble your quit. Shout out if you need us.

She into the wacky backy

Can I get a backie

I've seen em too and was worrying that there was a big Anni I was missing...then I thought maybe someone birthday.....but maybe they just wanna hang and pay it forward.

Yes, I remember when I was a newbie it felt so special for a long time quitter to take the time to reply and offer their advice

Did someone say Sausages ???? Best thread ever ...

NOPE

I feel for you, Wantsit. I hope things work out for the best but, having been in that situation myself, I know it is stressful. Please read the link that Sazerac posted by Cristobal (Your Quit and Your Life). I often went to that thread when things were really stressing me and it helped keep my quit in the right perspective. I hope all works out for the best but a cigarette will not make any situation better...only worse.

I had/have those too farmgirl, I think that just because we have a year, or almost three in my case, quit it still is nothing to the amount of years we smoked. So for a lot of us it's totally normal. The beauty is that these craves are nothing like the bad craves we had in the beginning of our quits right? On New Year's eve I told my husband that I kinda felt like having a cigarette. Of course I didn't but it was a thought that popped in my head. I figure that I smoked for 35 years so it may take years to get over all the craves
