Humbled

And this thread officially took that bound to happen turn......

Please only share said requested pics in the ladies only forum - not sure the rest of us will be ready for you in lace - just saying

Jackie this is your time - I think Babs picked up a few royalties and rightfully so plugging in NIKE - just do It.. that is the only ,mindset to have- Self-Refection and Realization are also key - you identified your triggers - now you have to find a way to counteract them - you have the right mindset and I applaud you for owning up to your set backs - time for you to be a non-smoker for good.. You got this Jackie -just ask yourself what makes this quit different then the last time - your answer will get you through any "craves you think you are having"- keep focused and you shall prevail.

I spend just the right amount of time playing games on this board to keep me sane at work. TPBM has really bad OCD issues

-8 Hi All

Welcome to the train - this is the only place as far as I am concerned to achieve a successful quit - we are here to support in anyway we can but we can't force you to pledge NOPE everyday or to look past the short-term craves you think you are having (I say this because smoking is only a habit especially after a few days to a week when the dependency is already gone) it's not your body that craves it - it's your conditioned mindset you developed - I need a smoke after I eat or when I drive - I always light up with my morning coffee etc..- DEVELOPED HABITS - all of them not your body craving poison. I smoked at least a pack a day for 25 years and quit cold turkey -my mindset, NOPE and this board made it as easy as riding a bike - I wish I understood the psychology versus physical dependency years ago - it would have saved me a boat load of money and time. Focus on just a few simple things - Pledge NOPE everyday - take it minute by minute, hour by hour, day by day etc.. get involved on the site -play some games, get to know people here- practice saying I don't smoke (never say I quit -your subconscious does not adapt well to the word quit) - and most of all focus on the new you - exercise etc.. it's amazing what your body can do in such a short time after your last puff. You got this!
