Still here....

Hi Everyone, still here. Wish I could say strong at it, but life isn't always so well laid out now is it..?

The stresssssss!!!!!

The bad news, my fave Uncle has been diagnosed with Prostate Cancer. Another friend with MS and is having issues.

And I read here, Eric, mate... What can I say? Fight and be strong, make the most of what you can and strive for better, I really don't know where that leaves you but I have been told you can fight for improvement. I've been told their is some great benefit in swimming and cycling?

Bebo, be strong. Keep coming back at it with a fight. Non of us here have been out and out succesful first time. It's not the slip ups that count it's always giving Quitting another go.

The good news, 51 days today, I haven't given in, but mood and stress reminds me that I could sometimes.

Tiger, I'm still here, and Rocky AWESOME, kathyrose hi and fantastic keep up the great work!

It's funny how I seem to know some of you and think of what you might be up to, the quit experience I guess gives us a very easily understood and recognisable common ground to stand on.

I feel a bit guilty that I have done so well and feel so good, especially when I see others with health issues and other problems. Pretty much seems nuts that I can run, jump and bounce like a kid, when I have done my fair share of self demolition, especially with food and smokes in the past.

I suppose some of the things I have learnt is it's never too late to grab what you got and make the most of it. Also that we need to learn from others. There are words of wisdom, here on this site, and from life in general that we really ought to be lending our ears to at times.

Keeping me on track at the moment is work. Lots of it. Acknowledging others and their advice. And hoping to help others where and if I can.

If I have the energy I guess I will do something with it. BTW, I have contacted the ICANQUIT people and am looking forward to a response on growing the website. Still reckon an IM feature or one to one messaging service would be great for some fellow quitter support.

Have fun and fight strong everyone.
