False I always loved to cook, I hate the grocery shopping! TNP has eaten frog legs

I am saying #3. I can't picture you in a convent.

Nope

Good for you Michelle. You are doing great.

Sweetie, only you can let them to do that. With my family, it was their way or the highway. If I tried to stand up for myself, they would cut me off. I spent my lifetime trying to prove what a wonderful person I was. That was a lot of wasted time because they were not going to change. If setting boundaries means the loss of them in your life, then that is best for you. You deserved to be loved and respected.

True only in my youth. Now I have saggy old lady ones and would not think of going without support. TNP has something pierced other than the ears.

Ankush, sounds like your mom most likely always does a number on your self esteem. She is definitely not a loving, supportive parent. You are not quitting smoking for her or any of these other people who are undermining you. You are quitting for you. I can tell you that, when I quit, I was taking care of two very unloving parents, who could do a real job on my self esteem. Due to their age and health, I was going out of my way to accommodate them. I allowed them to use me and emotionally abuse me. During my quit journey, I finally realized the strong person I was. I take care of me first and I do not let them control me anymore. What your are doing right now is outstanding. You are quitting an addiction, which is not an easy feat. Be proud of yourself and do not let anyone undermine that. Everyday you avoid those cigarettes you are gaining so much power and control over you life. You will find that those people will no longer be able to control your feelings.

False Would never where one inside out. TNP likes colored underwear.

I am a little new at this game I assumed you stared your words with the last 3 letters which would have been u(ber) Best ever reason would be that.

Nope for me!

try, try again

That was your best ever reason

i love you

I try not to get into politics in the US. Our country is so divided and full of hate!

You can do this Michelle. That family deserves a happy, healthier you. Keep looking ahead on the prize. A life free of nicotine. Have a wonderful day.

We all were young and stupid. Now we are old and smart!!!!!

Now about that felony? Not our jillar. lol

Nope for another day!

You are on your way now Diane. Once the tough week is over, you can conquer the craves. We love helping you achieve your freedom. It is exciting for us, as it is for you. Keep that quit going!!!!!!!

Don't you have Costco Wholesale in Canada? We buy a smaller leg there. My husband cuts it down and he makes shish ka bob with it on the grill. We also buy the rack of lamb and cut them into small chops for on the grill. Reci, you and my hubby would make great grilling partners. He is retiring soon and we will have to visit your neck of the woods when we start our RV travels. I definitely could not eat bear!

You are so awesome MLMR. It is so exciting to think we are almost one year quit. It truly is behind us and we are finally living life free. Your journey will help so many others.

I love your motivation also Michelle. Keep telling yourself all those things. The rewards in quitting are immense. I do think you should treat yourself a little though. There must be something you like to do that you don't always leave time for. Now is the time to pamper yourself.

OMG jillar. That is so fricken cute!

Michelle, every crave you push through, you become stronger. Bring that monster down in size. He is only as big as you allow him to be.
