Smoking

I was a smoker of 23 years and on Oct 10th at 12:01am I smoked my last one. I am about 30 minutes to day #5 without one and doing really good. Just wanted to share the news . Hope everyone is doing well. Hugzz

Great job Tonya. Best of luck on this journey because I know it will be hard. If you need support you know where to look.

Best of luck

Congratulations Tonya! That's great news. Keep at it, we know you can do it, okay?

That's great Tonya!!!
I quit over 10 years ago and found that having a cinnamon stick to hold in my mouth..helped with the cravings. I'm not talking about the candy ones but the ones you cook with. They are thinner than a cig. but the flavor and just the fact that I had something between my lips helped greatly.

Good luck.....and you CAN do it!!

Thanks

Well, on to Day 7. Thanks so much you guys. I'm doing pretty good so far. Nancy, I'm living on peppermints and Twizzlers, lol. I'm on the medicine Chantix to help me quit and ohhh it's working so well. If anyone wishes they could quit but "can't", try this med. It really REALLY does help.

As far as the crohn's..I'm hangin in there. Having some painful BM's lately and have a fissure that hurts like hell when I go. Other than that, I'm livin...smoke free. I miss you guys. I just try to stay busy lately and with a 3 yr old, it's not hard to do, lol. Hugzz!
