A Month Today
Well here we are - 31 days later, post a cold turkey quit and I must say it has been a LONG month. But wow, what a ride. Still a long way to go, but am feeling extremely confident. Now I could not have said that earlier this month.
Yestreday was a friens birthday BBQ and people were smoking and I was drinking and so it was a bit of a tempting situation to be in, but I actually did not want one. At one point I thought, oh it would be nice and then it was gone. Took off as soon as it came.
Not truly sure if it's mind set, about feeling like I can do things without smoking, not sure if it's knowing I do not want to repeat those early days of stopping or what it is, but I am truly loving feeling in control.
I am a non smoker - woo hoo! And I will continue to say no and yay to me a month! I am so bloody proud of myself.
Busting a month is an awesome feeling. I still get 'cues' at social functions, but its great when you can recognise it and beat. Awesome stuff WW, it's great to have company with all the ICQ people and you keeping the path helps me. Brilliant work. I'm sure your lungs must be happy. :)
CONGRATULATIONS WINNER! I remember when you were struggling with day 1. How things change. You sound like you're loving the feeling of being a non smoker. And you're right - feeling of being in control is the best!!!! Life's great isn't it.
Well done WW, You have done amazingly!!!! One month today and you thought at the bigging you wouldnt make it! We all knew you could and here you are! It has been an honour to watch you be so strong through all your hard times!! Now is the time for living and enjoying your success!!!It gets easier but you always have to keep the voice at bay!!
keep up the great work!!
Congratulations Winnie............ keep doing what you're doing, I can't wait to hit day 4 let alone week 4!!! High five Winnie
Woohoo! Go you. It's funny being on the non-smoking side hey? I went out with some girlfriends last week and it was so strange telling them they were right to go outside without me to have a smoke! I used to spend half my nights out outside smoking! Hangover wasn't anywhere as bad either! JoC's right - what a turn around, you sound so confident :)
DUDE YOU ARE AMAZING!!!!!! Congratulations... you are doing so awesome and one month is great. I am 28 days to today and still getting there.
Take a moment today and realise what you have done and what a massive achievement it is. You have been through stressful situations and still achieved it/. Excellent effort.
I hope that your dad is going strong too. x
