Happy Mothers Day Doreen! NOPE.

At any rate I 'm tootin my own horn on this one! I'm sooooo doing this! Thanks for all your support! :girl_dance:

NOPE, not gonna happen today!

EXCELLENT post Babs! I could relate so much to this, especially about making a promise to dad that you'd quit...so did I.

I've all of a sudden started to cough in the last few days...well this morning on my way to work I coughed up some bloody sputum. Maybe I didn't quit in time? I'll keep a close eye on this and see my dr asap if it continues over the weekend. I'm not at all scared, what will be will be. Just concerned.

NOPE. Not today. No way.

:dance4: Congrats Morgan on your 2 weeks quit! On to better days now, right?!

Not One Puff Ever.

YAY! Thanks Leanna, I'm Karen :D

I have read in so many places since I quit smoking that I would have increased energy, and I really wish this was true. Every day I'm dragged down and tired. Not fun at all. Any suggestions?

I'm happy for you Indigo! Congratulations! :yahoo:

NOPE. 500 cigs NOT smoked already! WOW!!!

Hi and welcome to the quit train! Awesome place, great people!

What length of time am I not a newbie anymore? I just want to say you guys that have stuck around are SO VERY MUCH APPRECIATED by all of us newbies! :heart:

CONGRATULATIONS! That is so cool that you two met right here!!! :D

is Leanna the one that posted all those yummy pics of food she was cooking kind of a few years ago?

Not One Puff Ever!

I don't want to forget I smoked.....EVER! I don't even think something that was such a big part of my life for so many years is possible to forget. And another thing that's bugging me is I'm gaining weight. If I'm hardly eating how in the heck am I gaining weight?! I guess I just feel like complaining today! Sorry about that. :(

Seriously Karen? How many times do you want to have to start over, anyway? You don't even know if you'll ever find the strength to quit again! Last time you screwed up you went on and smoked for about 3 more years ! In the heat of the moment you just THOUGHT you didn't give a shit anymore and you lit up a smoke and WHAT THE HELL DID THAT SOLVE???? Nothing, absolutely nothing. You made a promise to dad on his death bed that you'd quit smoking and this has taken you 19 YEARS to make good on it. For Gods sake, you even quit on his birthday! Don't throw it all away, we know it's not worth the price we pay. So GET OVER IT ALREADY. Stay on the quitrain.

I'm tired of thinking about smoking and not smoking. I don''t want this to be the main focus of my every day existence. I just want to feel or think "normal". Whatever that may be. Does anyone understand what I'm trying to convey here?

oh, i see he's in Nevada so now i think he works in casinos? Smoking is allowed in casinos, at least it was when I was there and at the time I smoked and remember how happy i was to find that out!

that would be a colorful NOPE for me :P

Um, where do you work? I'm new here :)

Happy Birthday Jenny! I am wishing for you much happiness on your special day!
