  1. I watched the same with my Grandfather. Indeed it is cruel, very cruel.
  2. Awesome! Glad to see you're still checking in and guarding your quit. :)
  3. Welcome, DeeDee! How is day 3?
  4. A lot of people don't make the commitment because they think they're actually giving something up, something they think they enjoy. I believed the same hook line and sinker! Look at what all you're giving up!
  5. That stale cigarette smoke is horrid. When I smoked, I even noticed it but it wasn't as repulsive as it is now. There is this tavern that I ate at a few times last summer. It had been non-smoking for a long time, probably 10 years or more. The first time I walked in I could smell it. This place had probably been smoked in for well over 100 hundred years. The smoke must have just marinated the walls and large ceiling beams. Glad that you had a plan and know that YOU CAN do all of the same things that you did when you were a smoker. Alcohol is probably the biggest reason, or better yet scenario for relapse. Second only to complacence. Great Job! :) Complacency Video discussing the importance of not allowing yourself to become complacent after longer term success not smoking. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MZSktbwotI4&index=30&list=PL4F05C03D0F9B86DB
  6. How did it go?
  7. Welcome aboard, John! The only way a quit is going to be forever is if you do it for yourself so good choice. :)
  8. Welcome back, Ramona! Let's make this quit stick for good! What says you? :)
  9. Congrats on 25 days!!
  10. Spend more time here? Perhaps we can create something new for members??
  11. It's amazing all of the smells we notice after we quit. Once of things we never knew we were missing!
  12. Why of course, Evelyn! As you know, this train runs 24/7 and we pick up everybody. Glad to see you back. :)
  13. I cannot condone advising anybody to quit drinking coffee unless a doctor told them to do so. I start drinking it at 3 AM and continue until early evening...every. single. day. even on weekends I get up well before 5 AM to drink coffee. I go to bed excited because I know as soon as I get to sleep the sooner that morning coffee comes. My doctor was in shock when I told her how much coffee I drink. She said at some point, I may want to consider cutting back but back the science that shows it staves off aging and has many health benefits. However, science and I part paths when it talks about "moderation". The scientists and I don't see eye-to-eye on this issue. :)
  14. Don't minimize your own involvement because it's you doing this, not us. :)
  15. NOPE, not today.
  16. Your plan looks pretty solid! Tuck your chin and keep going! Post like a madman and keep yourself accountable to us, but especially to yourself. :)

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.
