@JustinHoot99, if you created the new one before you deleted the old one then it's going to revert back every time Using the one you created yesterday before deleing the old one won't work. Delete the old one FIRST, I deleted it for you

Congratulations @KEL on another awesome smoke free month!

Congratulations on two months and thank you for all the support you give to everyone

States the facts

Those pm's are fun @Boo, in my dirt bike club we called them pit bikes, the bikes we liked to ride once we started drinking around the campsite. Much safer

Congratulations @Sal and Anita, I'm really happy for you both @DenaliBlues, forgetting your patch at only 19 days is AWESOME, you're already seeing the light at the end of the tunnel @KEL, that would be Rodney Atkins, I love his songs

Glad to see you back @JustinHoot99, stay close and reach out to us when you need extra support. Lets get this done! As far as your ticker goes, you need to delete the old one first and then make your new one and put it in your signature

@Kris I don't think allowed is the right word coming from the @Boo clan. I imagine it'll more likely be a question of will boo2 want to ride. My first motorcycle was a Peugeot moped and I loved it. I went on to buy a few bikes, some street, some dirt and some Enduros aka duelsports. My twin brother however never got into riding lol

Glad to hear you're on the road to recovery opah. Take it slow and don't overdo!

@DenaliBlues, what you are feeling is completely normal. Most of us are either sad or irritable, or sometimes both, in the early stages of quitting. Smoking was such a huge part of your life that quitting is almost like a death in the family. Your perceived best friend is gone forever. Just hang in there and in no time you'll be past this stage

Welcome back nana, sounds like you've had quite a few lifestyle changes! Congratulations on the promotion. Glad you found your seat on the train, give us a shout if you need us

Welcome back @Nana20, I was JUST thinking about you a couple days ago when I ran across one of your posts! Glad you're ready to get your forever quit, stick close

Jenny Quit Date: 05/24/2012 Posted May 24, 2014 There are many side effects of quitting and some can be really uncomfortable. You may experience some or all of the symptoms below but rest assured it's temporary. These symptoms won't kill you, but continuing to smoke most certainly will. Headaches or a general heaviness. This is a classic smoking withdrawal symptom, often caused by your sinuses clearing out. Shaking, sweating or feeling very cold. Coughing, hacking, runny nose, wheezing and shortness of breath. Seems strange to get these when you've quit, but your body is ridding itself of years of tar and built-up residues. In other words, at last taking the opportunity of having a good clean-out. Insomnia is common. Well, it is stressful to quit and break your normal patterns. As with all stress — good or bad, sleep challenges can surface. Sour stomach or stomach pains. Your digestion might get out of whack for a little while. Pains, pains, pains. Some smokers get stomach cramps, sore gums, pains in chest... pains anywhere. Your mind and body are going through a healing crisis and they are going to remind you of what they are missing. Tiredness and a general zapped feeling. Mild depression or sadness. There goes your best friend that you turned to in need. Tobacco was always handy to blot out your worries and give you your fix. Anxiety. The jitters and fear of facing life without tobacco might try and overwhelm you. Boredom and loneliness. There are now a few gaps in your day to fill up. A smoker spends a lot of time hanging about either smoking, rolling or buying and preparing things for their habit. Anger or short-temper. Despite making a positive change in your life, this can still be stressful. All life changing events, good and bad are seen by the body as stress. It's not necessarily bad, but it can cause you to over re-act and be a bit on a knife-edge for a short time. Be kind to yourself during this time. Get extra rest and avoid stressful situations when at all possible. Exercise is a wonderful aid in helping the body and mind. Most of all believe in yourself because you are a warrior! You got this! --The list above are statements I have found and identified with from various articles .-- Author (s) unknown.
