NOPE
@CbDave, your photos bring back fond memories of my brief months in Australia, and a longing to go back. These photos are so beautiful.

Every NOPE in the pledge counts. I look forward each day to seeing @cbDave's photos and the people who are once again, making the pledge.

In the last few days, I have gone hours at a time not thinking about smoking or about not smoking. I can't wait until it is days at a time!
It was amazing, the first time I realized I'd gone a couple of days without thinking of a cigarette. I was also regularly forgetting to come online and pledge NOPE in Quittrain because I wasn't thinking of smoking. I finally added it to my morning checklist of things to do while I'm having morning coffee.
Passing someone outside who is smoking no longer gives me a wistful feeling. When I see someone standing alone, on the side of a commercial building or at an uncovered bus stop, huddling under an umbrella in the drizzling rain in Seattle, I feel a moment of amusement mixed with compassion--I used to be that person.
Halleluiah, not any more!

I don't know about other successful quitters, but the passing of time has made it easier and easier to deal with a desire for a cigarette.
The feeling of wanting one is less frequent, it's milder and fleeting.
It's a reinforcement that I see ticker racking up the days I've not smoked, the thousands of cigarettes not smoked, and money saved.
Ah, just remembered, there is also the amount of time I've not wasted smoking. If I count each cigarette as a use of 15 minutes (to get to a smoking place, smoking, and returning to where ever I needed to get back to), I've saved 3,217 hours.
