  1. Last exam was today (ultrasound to rule out an abdominal aortic aneurysm) and I am cleared to exercise briskly and lift weights again. Huge sigh of relief. Too much drama. Even though I am not much overweight, for some reason I am pre-diabetic. Symptoms include sugar craving not relieved by eating sugar, dizziness, and fatigue. Sleep is improving with hormone replacement (something some of us older gals need it), giving me more resilience against sugar cravings. I didn't learn about it until today, but smoking can worsen insulin resistance. It helped enough in the short term to stop most cravings and reverse the weight gain. If I'd not been so chronically sleep deprived and brain-fogged, I might have had the presence of mind to figure out another solution to the problem than resuming smoking. I don't know what. I am moving forward now with confidence. Thank you all for your kind words of support. Have a great weekend!
  2. Just hit a challenge. Time to move forward.
  3. Thanks. Trying that.
  4. Thanks so much. I searched "ticker" on the QT site and read a copy of posts. What I see on the webpage doesn't have anything labeled EZ. I've attempted copy/pasting the BB and HTML, and parts beginning with www. No success yet. I'll keep trying different tactics. Thanks again
  5. NOPE Now I'm working on the tricky ticker situation
  6. Congratulations! That's wonderful, Nancy. You are an inspiration!
  7. NOPE. Again.
  8. Congratulations! The years are accumulating.

About us

QuitTrain®, a quit smoking support community, was created by former smokers who have a deep desire to help people quit smoking and to help keep those quits intact.  This place should be a safe haven to escape the daily grind and focus on protecting our quits.  We don't believe that there is a "one size fits all" approach when it comes to quitting smoking.  Each of us has our own unique set of circumstances which contributes to how we go about quitting and more importantly, how we keep our quits.
