Reciprocity

You're up Jo!! I can trip over a doorstep let alone trying to get over something way up in the air (-10 in spelling in grade 8 They started at 100 and took marks off for mistakes made. Clearly I was not a good speller! In my own defense, there was one person worse than me at -40 )

That first week is critical to get through so a huge congrats is in order! You will not face greater challenges than in that first week. Feel proud in the knowledge that you have done that first week so nothing can stop you now!

I couldn't wait for bedtime in my early quit. Not only was I exhausted from battling all the strong urges to light up again but when I was asleep, I had NO cravings so .... going to sleep was a win-win!! As I'm sure you've heard before, these quit symptoms are temporary and will pass in time. I know right now, a day must seem like a week to you. Time almost seems to stop in the early days of quitting but it isn't so just push through all challenges one at a time. Things will get easier

Nope!

For as long as you need it to. Your mind is slowly building a new normal that doesn't include lighting up a smoke after almost everything you do or every emotion you feel. That takes a while so in the meantime, replace those lost moments with some other activity. Keeps your mind off listening to that voice in your head that's trying to talk you into lighting up again. That's your junkie voice and we all had it when quitting!

Hope your birthday was a Great one! Thanks for keep us safe from all those hardened criminals!

Congratulations on reaching 12 weeks quit Angeleek! Even more benefits coming your way as time goes by. Enjoy your day!

Nope!

This is what the early days of quitting are all about. Fighting the cravings one at a time and by doing that, the cravings become weaker and your resolve to stay quit becomes stronger. Sure, it's not easy but it's a very small price to pay for your life long freedom from slavery to nicotine! Stay strong and remember the reasons you're quitting for!

This is how we all became smoke free Guttie, 1 battle at a time! Each battle you win, YOU become stronger and better able to fight the next one. One battle at a time is how it's done!

OK; here we go then .......................... 1. I received a negative mark on a report card once in elementary grade school. 2. I won a gold medal in high jump at a regional track meet in high school. 3. I have never discharged a firearm.

That's a GREAT way to start Igamoo and actually, that's all you have to do in order to quit for life (NOPE)!
