Warrioringthrough

But honestly earlier I felt like chain smoking a pack... It's crazy how it comes out of the blue.

Omg! Fancy yesssss! Army!!! Catfish!!! Thank you all I needed that so so much!! I was really weak. That made me cry, sunny about the Christmas. Very deep. You guys gave me a gift that's priceless another day smoke free thank you all so much!! Incredible people!! Sending the biggest hug ever sent to all of you. And besides everything else I never want to go through those first few days again!! Insanity!!! Love you all !

Ugh it's my 4 month anniversary and I just want to smoke so bad!! I gained a ton of weight, I feel gross and miss smoking more then ever why!!!! Ugh

It's so hard but we can all do it together, I just made a month smoke free, and this week I've wanted to smoke more then ever but I'm fighting it with my everything, it's unbelievable but two of my closest nonsmoking friends started smoking just when I quit, and say too bad we can't have one together you tortured me to sit out in the cold for years with your cigarettes, I have to say it's not a bonding prop! And why the hell did you start! Truth is, if something has us this by the balls why give in to it so the hold stays strong, we have to keep cutting the lifeline until there are no more left, cause it's sad to be so controlled by a lousy cigarette, I mean through this quit I've cried over these damn things and felt mental. Don't give in!! And have to start the withdrawal all over again, you don't want that... Have a lollipop !!! Stay strong we are all here for you!!

Thanks for all the support really helps

All of You guys rock !!! All my love... Thanks so much... I'll keep warrioring through :) nothing worth it is easy...

Thanks so much, your all right! I had a weak moment. i asked my friend to give me one to hold, that's why I had it. It smelled gross, even felt gross in my hand, unnatural, that's how I know I'm no longer a smoker. It's true I'm being reborn as a nonsmoker retraining my habits after 20 years of the motion of smoking. its a process. I feel better today. Yesterday was my dads birthday I think that played a roll.

I held one in my hand, but I said nope! Ugh I hate this addiction.

I want one so bad, but I know I don't, and it will be gross and I'll be mad I broke my progress of a whole month!!

Hey guys, I made it through, but it's still lingering. I feel so ravenous today and nothing is forfilling. It's been a ruff crave day. Thanks for all your support.

I just want to smoke so bad for some reason, nothing is for filling this anxious feeling I have all of a sudden. It's been a month now, it's the strongest crave yet.... Ughhhh ... I'm even having a hot flash... It's killing me ... Help!!

I love the encouragement thank you so much it helps more then I thought because I know you all know exactly how I feel! I really feel amazingly accomplished and powerful to go off and accomplish anything... It's amazing the glimpse into how life changing this really is... As a smoker we think it's just a cigarette, but Its really life and death even in a metaphysical way I feel more alive inside... I can't wait til a year goes by... It's nice not being afraid of no smoking establishments and wondering where I can sneak and smoke if I can leave a venue during to go smoke...doing my best ... Committed to lighting up the world, not another cigarette :)

Today was the first day I didn't crave anything all day at work and didn't feel anxious to want to go out for the motion of smoking, I worked out was so excited now I'm in a baddddd crave... ughhhhh the ups and downs are crazy, it's insane how by the balls smoking had me and is trying to still have me but I'm saying nope but I'm craving ughhhh

Thank you all so much, means so much to me! Celebrating all of you as well! High five to all !!! We're doing it!!

Evelyn!! You have 8 months!! Your fabulous! One of the greatest triumphs one can have is taking their life into their own hands and running the show, not a box of glorified wicks of cancer we think are our friends and will comfort us they are not our friend they only bring us down!! Stay strong, sending good vibes and love out to you darling!

Lila, Baby you can do this!!! You've always looked up to shamans, Kung fu masters and Mystics for the reason of their wisdom and peace, there is no peace in smoking, it's always an anxiety. It's time to be reborn and see what my body is capable of as a non smoker, you know the life of a smoker, time for the beautiful unknown. All the time And extra money we will enjoy, using it positively to contribute to the greater good. Cigarettes hold us back from our full potential greatness. What a fool you were to think it was a part of an artists image to smoke and start to begin with, there is no glamour like the 1940s glorifies smoking to look like, it steals your shine, your worthy of shining bright like a comet!!! Stop romancing the idea of that stupid cigarette, it's gonna be hard but nothing worth it is easy! Now go shoot off into the sky and never look back! When the craving comes dismiss it off like its a creepy drunk guy overly trying to hit on you at a concert haha!! We got this! Love you! Wu Wei .... Warrior through...you choose don't be chosen... Light up the world not a cigarette :) xo -me

NOPE!!!!

Doesn't seem like much, but for me such a feat!!! Thanks for the support! I had a week from hell and still didn't have one!!

Thanks everyone! It's been 10 days now, I wanted to crack a few times but I'm slowly forgetting cigarettes were ever part of my every move, I feel really good, I can breath better, my mouth looks healthier, smell, skin, obviously the right decision, still a rebirth, and major life change but I feel really proud of myself, everyone is doubting me because of how much of a smoker I was, but it's not bringing me down this decision is for me not anyone else...

I'm craving the worst I have yet, I wanted one so bad!!! It's driving me a little crazy after all this time, it feels like it's getting worst the craves ugh

How is everybody feeling? Thank you all so much, the site is really helping me feel apart of a amazing community that can relate to each other's struggle, I love it! Lifting each other up to conquer the evil.. I'm very grateful!!

My aunt who I mentioned earlier on the ventilator had to now get a trach put in, very scary thought... I'm so glad I quit, I have a chance to heal before it's too late, in sure I did damage already but better late then never ...

It's day 8! I feel really good, with the exception of some withdrawal that my body is going through, and the severe craves that come about, I had a horrible one yesterday but sat with it and it passed, it's gonna take time to train my body to not look for a cigarette in its routine of actions it's been so many years I get that, I see why it's important to engage in a lot of healthy distractions ha!

Thank so much !!! I was just on the phone I forgot how many cigs I used to smoke while on the phone , felt a little anxious, but made it through.... I wrote a letter to cigarettes haha

I can't stress enough how much more free time is available that I use to sit around smoking ...
