Dominque‌ Congrats to you and your husband on quitting. Is he on here too or you're passing your wisdom to him from the site?

You're doing your own daily pledge? Not interested in Take the Daily Pledge‌?

I am so happy you found our site.  Congratulations to you and your husband on 8 days quit.  You want one, but you choose not to smoke.  We have a daily pledge you can go to daily Take the Daily Pledge along with many of us at Ex’s.  Might I suggest you read at My EX Plan | BecomeAnEX to help in your journey quit.  When you want a cigarette and choose not to have it...make a list of healthy things you can do in place of smoking.  Here is a list to get you started...

Hi Cristal!

today is day 3 for me! I was using Juul just sometimes and over the past year... it became all day long!!! I had a sort of lung spasm or something three days ago and it freaked me out. 
my body clearly saying... it’s time girl.
we can do this! I quit smoking cigs 20 years ago so I know I can do this. It’s already hard this morning... but I’m determined to persevere. 
It truly is a mindset... this group of encouraging people will help you. Stay engaged. Celebrate one day at a time! I’m here for you!
