Dusting myself off

So its the first 24 hrs after my slip and I'm having some withdraws but not so bad and I know I deserve the torture because I did it to myself!  So I've been spending all morning cleaning and looking into getting healthy all around.  I've looked into clean eating and yoga (been great keeping my mind off smoking).  I saw some adds for meds that claim to completely cleanse the body off all nicotine in just 2 days, anyone tried any herbal remedies such as licorice root??  Anyone else excitied to get healthy in more ways than just stopping smoking?  One thing I thought about this morning was my slip.  I need a better plan in place for my husbands smoking the next time he comes in so I dont fall back into the same trap.  I know I will be blogging more (sorry in advance lol) because doing so and interacting with you guys really helps me 🙂  I almost forgot in my ramble that last week while at my drs and not smoking for several days my blood pressure was down from 140 to 128 and I was so pleased.  Sorry all this is so jumbled I just feel a great charge of energy today.

I'm 43 and started smoking at age 16. A smoker of 27 years! Wow, that's a long time :( I've stopped multiple times in the past but ended up going back within a few months. This time I stopped cold turkey with lots of prayer. A spiritual quit. God is good!
