  12. I hope that things are better for you Monday! . My smoking was masking some severe anxiety issues I didn’t even realize that I have. I’ve smoked since I was 15. I knew that I had issues, I just had no clue how bad they are until I quit smoking. Over time it’s lessened exponentially, but I still have triggers that will have me a heap of tearful uselessness in a heartbeat. I’m dreading the holiday season this year as I suffer from SAD, but I do have hope that there will be enough time between my quit and then that I will muddle through as always. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers. Please stay close to us. We are here for you.

  15. I used to train outdoors, on a course I mapped out on our property. I did 2 20 minute power walks each day, every day. I never take a day off. When it started getting really hot, I bought a treadmill. I just finished 2 miles in 35 minutes, up a 3% incline, the whole way. 3% doesn’t sound like much, but it was very strenuous. I kept up a consistent 3.5 mph speed. Calorie burn was about 300. So far today, I have eaten 1/2 steak sandwich and a small fruit salad, for lunch, with water to drink. I had a half donut and coffee for breakfast. I mainly drink spring water, throughout the day. I do allow myself an occasional soda, usually with pizza, which may be tonight’s choice for dinner. It is football Sunday, after all. Just watch Tom Brady get beat by the Rams. I love to see him lose…..

  22. Thinking of you, Kate, and hoping that you start to get some relief from the treatments tomorrow. Hang on and keep giving yourself every chance to turn things around and experience the peace of mind that you deserve. Amazing job on not giving in to cravings and realizing that smoking is the last thing you need and would not help in any way.

  25. @MLMR I like your attitude in that you put the ticker back to day 1. I see some want to call something like that a "slip" or something and think they can carry on with the count. The moment you smoke another, the quit is over. If you start again, you start at 0. Otherwise, I think the subconscious will use that as just one more excuse to have just one because "you can just call it a slip, it won't hurt your quit so you can just pretend it didn't happen".

  27. Jerry has been reported to both the Humane Society and McKamey Animal Center. He's not microchipped and no one has reported a cat missing that matches his description. Wade, a young fella that works as a driver for us, is going to take him home this weekend. He and his girlfriend don't have any other pets and they're gonna see how it works out this weekend. Assuming things go well over the next couple of days and no report is filed by the original owner, they're going to adopt him as their own. I think Jerry is going to like his new digs. Me and a couple of the guys tried to lure him into a carrier this morning. Jerry wouldn't budge. Then Wade's girlfriend came by, called his name, gave him a treat, and he strolled right into the carrier for her. Jerry was far more cooperative with a young lady than he was with me and the boys...Can't say I blame him.

  28. Reading up on how to take care of a cat. There is a cat that has been wandering around my work for a couple of weeks now. He's not a typical stray. Seems more like he was abandoned by previous owners. They declawed him and abandoned him, that seems like a terrible thing to do to a cat. He is still a little standoffish, but is warming up to us. Probably doesn't hurt that at least four of us have been feeding him at different times throughout the day. We're going to need to get some kind of feeding schedule worked out. We've unofficially named him Jerry in honor of a coworker we lost to cancer last year. The cat walks around the dock a lot and never turns down a meal...just like Jerry. So, I guess we have a cat now.

About us

QuitTrain®, a quit smoking support community, was created by former smokers who have a deep desire to help people quit smoking and to help keep those quits intact.  This place should be a safe haven to escape the daily grind and focus on protecting our quits.  We don't believe that there is a "one size fits all" approach when it comes to quitting smoking.  Each of us has our own unique set of circumstances which contributes to how we go about quitting and more importantly, how we keep our quits.
