There's life after cigarettes!

[MarilynH]

I never thought in a million years that I ever could quit smoking but when I found out that I have mild copd, well let me tell you that it scared the crap out of me because I always thought everyone else got cancer and other smoking related illnesses but I finally realized that I wasn't invincible so I found this site and read everything that I could find on quitting smoking and Remaining Quit and picked a quit date but when it came i wasn't ready so I reset for a wk later July 14/14 and I told myself that no matter what I would never pick up another cigarette as long as I live. I was into my third wk and had totally forgot about this site and hadn't been back on since before quitting and I was ready to scream and head straight to the grocery store and buy a carton of cigarettes, screw the pk but thankfully I remembered this site and got on and I remember commenting on something and by the way up until this point I'd only been lurking and hiding in the shadows but by my commenting then someone said that I should write a blog and tell them a little bit about myself and my quit so they could help so I did and here I am 928 splendiforous smoke Free days later, I just felt like sharing that!
