FORE!

Have a good one Jimmy. It's your day, kick the tires and light the fires...

NOPE!

I wore this album out back in the day. Literally. Anybody else remember using a pencil to rewind the tape back on the spool of a cassette?

I haven't had a cough since I quit. Really didn't cough much when I was smoking, with the exception of those first few drags of the day that inevitably set off a hacking spell. I did however "clear my throat" many times throughout the day. And when I would lay down, I started to notice weird little whistling and clicking noises with each deep breath. I make fewer weird noises now, and I count that as a win.

NOPE!

There is a zen quality to quitting. I would encourage every new quitter and those just getting ready to take the plunge to embrace the process. The challenge of quitting is one of the rewards of quitting. You will become stronger physically and mentally. There is an inherent sense of pride and satisfaction that comes with accomplishing a goal once deemed impossible. You will learn some valuable lessons about yourself during the process. Comfort zones quickly become ruts. Those moments when you break from the monotonous, predictable, and all too often soul crushing routine...those are the moments when you feel alive. Quitting is awesome. Embrace it.

Good work Quitter. Weeks one and two are done and dusted. Full speed ahead.

NOPE!

Good call Doreen. Kings of Leon did one of my favorite songs of the last decade.

When that moment happens, there's no going back. Congratulations I can, you are a non-smoker now.

Great job Petra. Congratulations. Now I have to figure out which 80s song to dedicate to you on your anniversary. Let's see...nicotine addiction came along and you whipped it. Whipped it good!

Thank you all for the kind words. Four months...in the grand scheme of things that's a blip in time. Yet this last four-months has been one of the most transformative times in my life. This process started as a means of quitting smoking, but has led to many other positive changes. And, along the way I met some really awesome people riding the train. Thanks again for everything.

NOPE!

-3 Doreen...I'm no math-a-magician, but I see what you did there.

One month already. You've got this Mini.

Good work Quitter.
