Yes, it gets easier and this definitely temporary.

Happy Birthday, Marti! Thanks for being here. :)

Her and I wouldn't be. She said she wouldn't even let me have coffee with her and her HB. She said she'd shut the lights off and act like nobody was home. She ain't no kin of mine. :)

Happy Birthday, Rachael! I sure hope you're okay!

She loves death and gore. The more the better. She doesn't like people so when the rest of us are in shock, she'll be pumping her fist to the Heavens shouting off with the heads!

Not you bag? What is this, 1972? Nothing romantic about TWD. Watch it or getting warning points.

Yeah well why aren't you watching The Walking Dead and catching up on all the seasons before the new season starts next month? If I'm not mistaken, you haven't seen anything beyond one or two episodes of Season 1, correct? Don't come in there and tell me how bad the acting is on some c rated zombie show when you could be catching up on TWD. Just saying. You can report me You can court me But you can't thwart me You can bait me You can hate me But you can't rate me You may be well read But you best turn on The Dead Don't go to bed and instead feel the dread

Thanks everybody!! I hadn't even realized that today was the 7th because I've been so focused on October 7th rolling around. Usually I don't care too much to celebrate how long I've been quit, but this one year coming up is very, very special to me. I've been through more since I've quit than I have in any other single year in my life and haven't wanted to smoke. Next month, I don't know what I'm going to do, but I'm going to celebrate. Maybe I'll finally get those 25 fence post holes dug or do something fun like that. :) I live life on the wild side. Burning candles at both ends, if you will. lol

Great job, Natalie! I'm impressed by your dedication to keep your quit. You're not going to jinx anything by saying that you feel better because you're a non-smoker now and nothing can make you take another puff. Enjoy your new non-smoking life and all of the benefits and freedom that come along with it. The longer you stay quit the better things get. That says quite a bit because you're feeling pretty good right now.

Holy cow, Babs!! That's awesome! If you're wondering if your son will recognize you, the results must be pretty darn good. :)

As you read the entire article, you'll probably be even more disgusted with big tobacco and how they targeted us and now our children. Patrick Reynolds was the first tobacco industry figure to turn his back on the cigarette makers. He's a grandson of the tobacco company founder R.J. Reynolds, but the family's cigarette brands, Camel and Winston, killed his father and eldest brother. Since first speaking out in Congress in 1986, Patrick has been a well respected champion for a tobacco free society. In hundreds of live talks before universities, middle schools and high schools, and with over 6,000 copies of his educational video purchased by schools and health departments, Mr. Reynolds has reached well over a million youth in school with his powerful talk about the dangers of tobacco. http://www.anti-smoking.org/children.htm

lol I would buy one if it didn't have the useless box written on it and give them out as gifts. People would open them, hit the button and think it's broken or something and I'd be like "that doesn't seem right". :rofl:

For years my breakfast was coffee followed by 1 banana with peanut butter and 5-6 egg whites. Then I would put in a 3-5 mile run 4-5 days per week on that breakfast. Now since I start work anywhere between 0445 and 0500, I'm not hungry at all when I get up and drink coffee until I get to work. Usually around 0530-0600 I start to get hungry and eat some yogurt, drink a protein shake (w/ almond or coconut milk) or have a banana w/ peanut butter. For snacks I have carrots, a Nutri-Grain bar, Belvitta breakfast biscuits, protein bar or a banana w/ peanut if I didn't eat one earlier. For lunch I'll have grilled chicken with a huge handful of spinach, some carrots, broccoli and add some fat-free dressing. I grill a bunch of chicken on Sunday to last 3 days so I can quickly gather a good lunch for work. The chicken, carrots and broccoli are cheap. The grill was not. :) The key is to not eat carbs that quickly raise your blood sugar. You need carbs but choose them wisely. Whole grain carbs accomplish this and if you eat plenty of food with fiber (whole grain carbs are not refined thus they keep their fiber and other nutrients that are otherwise milled out), you'll feel "fuller" longer after you eat and besides, fiber will change your life. For example, right now, 45% of my calories come from carbs and I'll never, ever go below 40%. That's 900 calories from carbs per day for me. If I were to eat mostly processed and enriched carbs, I'd be freaking hungry all the time as my blood sugar would spike instead of gradually rise. Of course I eat enough crap that I shouldn't but I sure can tell a difference after I eat it.

The bread gloves take it it all.
