Hey, Everyone! Sorry I haven't been on here for a long time. Some of you might remember me. I've been so absent because spring came and I had so much to do outside. At some point thinking about smoking and anything to do with it just became an old memory. I just wanted to check in and let you know that it's been almost 2 years since I quit smoking. I want to show you newbies that it can be done. You can go to my page and read my story. This is the longest I've ever gone without giving in and starting again, so I'm pretty proud of myself. I hardly ever think about it anymore. You all can get where I am, too, with the help of this site and encouragement wherever you can get it. A big help to me was all the info on http://whyquit.com/ and of course all my friends on here. Hang in there, everyone! You can do it! I smoked for almost 50 years and if I could quit, anyone can. I always thought, "I don't know how to be an ex-smoker", but you know what? You gradually learn how to live like the other half. I have to admit it took at least a year before I quit thinking of smoking and could go days without the thought, but it did happen and it can happen for you!
