Share your quitting journey

I don't know why it feels like Sunday but I'm not smoking over it!

Oh Yeah! because yesterday felt like Saturday.

Dam colds. They sure feel like the first few weeks of quitting smoking!

 

Shredded Turkey Tacos (These taste amazing. The oil and vinegar is the secret)

(I use corn oil because it imparts the least strong flavor IMO)

Shred or chop 1 C lettuce to about twice the size of coleslaw and put in a bowl.

Add 1/4 C unseasoned rice vinegar and 1/4 cup of corn oil. Toss and let lettuce pick up the vinegar and oil taste.

Fry up corn tortillas to make your taco shells in 1/4 inch of corn oil (or whatever oil you use) Fold in half before they get too crisp and then finish frying to before they turn brown then drain and salt lightly.

Shred up some of your cooked turkey breast meat and and lay in taco shell.

Put some of the oil and vinegar lettuce on the turkey

Add some shredded cheese.

ENJOY

Did you know ceramic knives won't turn your cut lettuce or cut apples brown?

Hello, My name is Dale. I was quit 18 months before joining this site and had participated on another site during that time. I learned a lot there and brought it with me. I joined this site the first week of August 2008. I didn't pressure myself to quit. HOW I QUIT I didn't count, I didn't deny myself to get started. When I considered quitting (at a friends request to influence his brother to quit), I simply told myself to wait a little longer. No denial, nothing painful. After 4 weeks I was down to 5 cigarettes from a pack a day. The strength came from proving to myself, I didn't need to smoke because I normally would have smoked. Simple yes? I bought the patch. I forgot to put one on on the 4th day. I needed it the next day but the following week I forgot two days in a row I put one in my wallet with a promise to myself that I would slap it on and wait an hour rather than smoke. It rode in my wallet my first year.There's nothing keeping any of you from doing this. It doesn't cost a dime. This is about unlearning something you've done for a long time. The nicotine isn't the hard part. Disconnecting from the psychological pull, the memories and connected emotions is. :-) Time is the healer.
