I was thinking about how thankful I am for finding this community and how so many of you showed me that quitting smoking is sooooooo doable and I paid attention and am reaping the benefits of an Ex smoker . Smoking Is definitely horrifically addictive but if we are serious about taking back our lives from the dreaded cancer sticks , then we can , it's not easy by any stretch of the imagination but I can guarantee you that if you are willing , determined and totally committed to succeed then you can and will be successful . I was shown here on this site that after 3 days the nicotine poison is out of our system which I did know but it's the habit that I struggled with and probably most of you do too because for decades upon decades upon decades everything we did included cigarettes , I smoked for 40 yrs , so once I realized that I needed to relearn different ways of handling lifes stressers and any and every situation without the crutch which was hair pulling to say the least but I did it and so can you even if you don't think you can that's when you hang tough, chin up and say oh yes I can and  keep moving forward and stacking up those precious smoke free days, there's life after cigarettes and it's yours for the taking, hold on tight and don't let go and this evening smile because it's another day WON!

I'm a proud Gram of 2 grandsons and a granddaughter and I consider myself a jack of all trades and a master of none, plus I enjoy reading and being outside and since quitting smoking breathing is so much easier because I'm not coughing half of my time sucking on a cancer stick....
