Woo-hoo @QuittingGirl, you old pharte! Congratulations!!! You had some real struggles in the beginning and you held on and now you're free. You should be so proud of yourself.  I hope you celebrate this huge accomplishment today ☺

It's always a joy and an honor to welcome a 1 Year quitter to the Lido Deck Club! 

 

Today is a MAJOR milestone for you but quitting is a lifelong job so I hope you soak it all in today as you relax by the pool sipping some chilled Chardonnay. Remaining smoke free for life is pretty easy from here on providing you remain vigilant :) 

 

Congrats @QuittingGirl!!

Thanks so much folks!  I can't believe it's been a year already.  It seems like yesterday when I came on this site talking about how I was struggling with the weaning method smoking two cigs a day.  I think back to those early days and how horrible I felt, climbing the walls,  being such a beyatch.  Ohh it was a horrible time for sure and I was such a mess.  😬 Thank you for all your help and friendship, I appreciate it so much. 😊 I am definitely going to remain vigilant, and the easiest way to remain quit, is to just not take that one cigarette!!  I think I am doing so well, considering my mom lives downstairs from me and she smokes, (we own a 2 family house), and I am down by her a lot.  I think me smelling her smoke keeps me in check and makes me stronger.  I certainly could have stolen a cig or two when she wasn't looking, but I won't.  Although I still do get the urge, but it's not nearly as bad as it was in the beginning. Being a part of The Train has helped me tremendously, getting advice from all of you, but also giving advice to newbies who have climbed aboard after me.  I consider myself a "regular" passenger on The Train now.  I'm not a newbie anymore, but I will always need The Train.  @Reciprocity, as you say, quitting smoking is a lifelong job, so that is why I am always gonna be around here! 😃

 

I am truly touched by your kindness and friendship towards me and I really consider you my friends even though it's online.  It's too bad we all live in different parts of the country and world, it would be so great to have a meetup!

 

Thanks so much again guys!! 

Love,

Sandi

Yup, I certainly am Doreen!!! 😄I am so proud of myself and not only because I quit, but, because now I can help others struggling.  I CAN give advice!!! 😁  And, thank you again for your help this past year!  You and everyone else here helped me get through those horrible early days of quitting.  I think back to that time and I really can't believe how far I have come.  I was having meltdowns in the early days.  I was telling one member in another post how I was doing so terribly and I got through it and she will too!!

 

Here we go, take a look at this!! LOL!!   I never need an excuse....hahahah!!!

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.
