I am quite late getting on site this morning, I never thought to mention yesterday that I had a 12 hr fast to get blood work this morning. I was out of the house at 6 : 40 am with a thermos of coffee and my Tim Hortons cup ready to pour myself a coffee afterwards and then I stopped into my Dad's on my way home. I found for me that around the 6 month mark of quitting that I could function after a few sips of coffee and take a drive or do whatever in 15 minutes of waking up instead of 5 or 6 cigarettes and three coffees later finally dragging myself coughing and gagging to go and do whatever. There's so many positives to quitting smoking but each one of us must get to the point that we know that we're not invincible and that it's time to quit playing Russian Roulette with our lives, I quit for health reasons after 40 yrs of smoking, cold turkey was my preference and thankfully I had all of you here on this site to help me through the roller coaster ups and downs but yay when I finally reached that good place in my quit because there's no going back because relapsing is definitely not an option.
