A Challenge!

 I remember my doctor saying to me, "There are currently more people in the U.S. who have quit smoking than are still smoking.  Do you think they are ALL better than you?"  

Of course, my answer was, "H*ll no!"  And, thus, I began my journey to freedom - in part to prove I was NOT a lesser being than all those who had been successful before me. 

So - I challenge all the newly quit here to PROVE they are the better people, to get through each day of the quit smoking journey, one day at a time, sometimes an hour at a time...but forward nonetheless.  

You CAN do it.  If I made it, there is absolutely NO reason you can't!!!!  Just DO it!

I smoked until a vascular surgeon informed me of the damage I had done to myself by doing so. I quit 11 years ago, and I can swim laps virtually FOREVER now, walk most other days 40 minutes to an hour and a half. What a difference quitting has made in my life! I strive to help others find this wonderful freedom from addiction, too.
