Day 10, another milestone! I can't say it's been easy but it has been doable. I'm taking everyone's advice and get on here a couple times/day. It's time to start concentrating on what I'm eating. I started this journey being 25# overweight and I'm sure I have gained another 5-10#. I don't eat carrots but I can certainly get some grapes and other healthier foods besides chips and cupcakes. I will say I've had some obstacles. Whenever I try to do something positive for myself, I swear the devil tests me, but this time I am winning and it's giving me more confidence that I can really do this. I am getting through that fear of failure that I've always had whenever I tried to quit smoking. I also have a huge amount of gratitude to this site and all the elders that stick around to help us newbies. You are a Godsend. I hope each and everyone of you have a blessed and smokefree day!

I'm 59 with severe COPD. I've decided I really want to live and I won't if I smoke. I have 4 grown boys, a grandson and granddaughter due on 9/10. Lots of reasons to live.
