Quitting smoking is definitely difficult to say the least but it's absolutely Doable and so very worth it all to be able to go anywhere, anytime, whenever , wherever and however without wondering where to sneak off to suck on a disgusting cancer stick so chin up and grab onto the best gift that any of us will ever give ourselves which is the gift of LIFE, I remember only too well the withdrawals, mood swings, blatting like a baby one minute and the next minute if someone looked at me the wrong way I'd wanted to literally rip their face off or tear my hair out but I was kind of lucky because most people knew that I was quitting so they stayed away including my kids and no one thought I'd stick with my quit anyway but I proved them wrong. The only ones that I wanted around me were the grandchildren because they were my huge incentive to keep my quit and they kept me grounded, don't throw your quit away instead embrace it, nurture it and protect it and never ever take it for granted because there's definitely life after cigarettes and it's yours for the taking but you must stick with your quit and keep stacking up those precious Days WON! N.O.P.E and vigilance is key to a successful smokefree life,it's going to take some time to relearn different ways of dealing with life's issues without the crutch of smoking but it's up to each individual to make the choice to take back their lives and go through a few weeks of horrendous discomfort knowing that it's going to get easier 08ff4571a142f277156346b5ae3aac69.jpgwith time under the belt but a person must believe it and be willing, determined and totally committed to succeed then they can and will be successful, is it easy? HELL NO but is it worth it? HELL YES! Reach out and grab Freedom while you still are vertical!

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....
