my 43 day experience

Posted in Staying quit
schedule 6 Aug 2013

Well Im here i survived 43 days smoke free and loving it. My breathing is on the improve So far I have had one craving and just took it out on my husband i felt bad and just cried. but im staying positive i have lost almost 4 kilos. The first few weeks were the hardest but i made it through. I keep telling my self its worth it for my children and my family and my one true love my husband. I start my day by going to church every morning some how it calms me and the walk is good for me. i have found that now if i lose my breath or am short of breath it quickly comes back quickly. You know what I think im going to be ok and for those people out there who want to quit do it Life is too short.

Did you use NRT - or cold turkey? Either way 43 days is great - well done - keep going!

Wonderful stuff bellabear. Even losing weight in the process is great. Good luck for the rest as I am sure you will do it no worries.

i had no nrt just cold turkey the first 3 weeks I would say were the worst for me. I just kept saying to myself its worth it in the end and it is. I feel a whole lot better now. some days are good some are bad. but just take each day at a time. each day has a new beginning and a new end. one day at a time.
