I'm here, smoke free, still smelling like coconut. It'll be three years in June, I think. Nice to see so many familiar "faces" here, you guys rock!

That's awesome, Tracey! I think the stronger your core is, the less problems you'll have with your back. :) I'm still hanging in there, too. Haven't missed a day, I almost WANT it. I know I don't do much compared to you ladies, but for me, it's pretty big. First of all I get terribly bored with exercising, and secondly I've got a lot of health problems, most of all in my arms and legs. Swollen, painful lumps in all my joints, and a really messed up foot that won't allow me to do much of anything.... a few months ago I could barely walk, so I consider myself lucky that I get around at all. Hence the very slight approach to exercising.... :rolleyes:

2 sets of 100 today... plus 50 arm raises side to side, 50 overhead, and 50 up and down... then stretches. Tomorrow, the stars! LOLOLOL :D
-
I did my set this morning, maybe I'll do some more later in the day? Could be... LOL
-
I ALMOST feel like I'm doing sit ups... because when I'm pedaling away with my legs up, my stomach muscles are screaming... LOLOLOL

Today I increased my "workout". Went from two sets of 50 bicycles to 100/50, then did some arm exercises and stretches. Actually felt good. :)

Inspired by this challenge, I started my exercise program a couple of days ago, as well. I lay on my back, raise my legs, and bicycle. 50 times. Rest. Raise legs, bicycle, another 50 times. Done. Then I read this entire thread, and now I'm completely exhausted and sore. I'm going to bed. That said, I kudos to all of you who have the will and the strength to do this!

Awesome. Kudos to all of you who are still encouraging and aiding new members of this board. To my shame, I can't count myself among them... I have no excuse, really. Just lost my ambition, I suppose... got really busy, and never got back into the groove. But I'm still not smoking. :D- 8 replies

I'm still here.. though not very often, I'm ashamed to say... just enjoying the (smoke free) summer.... :-) -
When I first quit smoking, I had just found a new "favorite" song... it was https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uTxythHY09k. Just a cute little ditty... Since I happen to use my cell phone as my alarm clock, I used that song to wake me up every morning. I remember the feeling so well... in the early days of my quit, the feeling of overwhelming happiness... I DID IT, I DON'T NEED TO SMOKE ANY MORE, I QUIT, I'M FREE !!! I'd lay there, listen to Norah Jones, and glory in knowing that I won my freedom. To this day... over a year later... whenever I hear that song, I instantly get the same, wonderful feeling... I think I will ALWAYS love that song. :-)
