Letting Go
My desire to smoke again is leaving me completely. I feel so happy with this and I am using the money saved towards a gym membership, travel and some new clothes. Whenever I feel a bit of a slight craving I take a few really deep breaths relishing that fresh air instead of toxic fumes. Exercising now is quite easy for me. I am finally letting go of the feeling of a need to smoke. Once you commit to it and remain like that with a strong resolve it becomes totally possible and real.
When you think you can , you can. The mind is a value tool in this endeavor. Continue with the positive attitude and other wonderful changes in your life and you will not miss smoking.
Hi Cuba,
Great to read your progress.
Exercise is a great one to iuse your money saved and you have some other fun ways to spend your hard earned money. I have been using my money saved from quitting to pay for a long weekend way, baby sitting and dinners out.
So far I have saved $2,500.00
Thanks Happiness and Liz87, it is really good to have some extra money especially for the exercise. I wouldn’t be able to be going to the gym if I hadn’t quit smoking just from a physical ( and mental) point of view. I feel very motivated now which wasnt there before. And I hope you are going well Liz with your aim to stay smoke free and enjoying your weekends and dinners .
You are all so motivating and positive hopefully I can get there as well some day it’s only day 14 but so monumental for me I’ve never gone more than a day just the emotional want and absence I feel is the hard part hope it goes away soon.
