Congratulations on getting past that hardest month of your quit Jk!! You should be starting to enjoy many of the benefits of being smoke free. Be sure to celebrate this important milestone then get back to work strengthening that quit :)

Wow - you made it B57!!! 1 Month without smoking. How does that feel? You have been a silent but busy and focused quitter here on this board. Your daily nope pledges have been a constant and you have just been busy realizing your dream of being a non-smoker. You have taken on the nicomonster and beaten him back thus far. We are very proud of you as you should be too!! Here's part of what you said in your introduction: There are so many reasons why I no longer want to be a smoker. There are the obvious: My health, cost, disgusting smell, it takes up my time, it is no longer socially acceptable, it’s a bad example for my grandkids, and it controls my life. I want my car and home to smell good and fresh. I want my hair/body/breath to smell good. I want my clothes and purse to smell good. I am tired of wasting money. I don’t want to keep poisoning myself. I want to breath better and not get sick so often. I don’t want it interfering with where I go and who I hang around. I don’t want to stress out because I am running low on cigarettes. I don’t want it to be a barrier regarding how close I let people get to me because I am afraid they will smell it. I want to have more energy, stamina and ability to do the things I want to do. I want to control my own life and I want to say goodbye to my fake friend. You are well on your way to being smoke fee for life. Just protect what you have built so far and you'll be fine. Be sure to reward your hard work then push forward to enjoy even more time as a non smoker :)

So, where are you hford? Is the nicodemon having it's way with you? Come back to where people who care about your future well being are waiting to support you in your quit journey. Choose life - not death!

You're coming up on 1 month quit tomorrow B57 :) It would be really interesting to hear what things are like for you now compared to this blog post when you were 6 days in. I see you posting in the Nope thread every day which is GREAT! Are you finally starting to see the benefits of quitting rather than just the crappy stuff?

That's great that you have some medical advice on the symptoms that were bothering you. What about your acid reflux? Did she give you any particular instruction as to relieving that or is that a just wait it out thing? As I recall, that was once of your big concerns in terms of quit symptoms.

NOPE!

I need a pair of those!!

From the very first post in this thread and every one since then, I have no idea what is going on here ..........
