October 2019: Welcome new members!

The October Quitters have arrived!

 

There are always new members joining the community. A portion of those new members haven't set or haven't synced their quit date to the community so we can help celebrate your milestones.  

 

I'll be welcoming our new members and encourage you to get your quit date set and synced to the community so we can help you celebrate when you hit those milestones.

 

Set and Sync Quit Date

To get started you'll need to do the following:

  1. Set your quit date on your Set Your Quit Date | Guides & Tools | BecomeAnEX  (or make sure it's set if you aren't sure.)
  2. Log out of the community by clicking this link.
  3. Then log back into the community to sync it.
  4. Look at your profile and confirm your correct date is showing.

 

When you log back in it will sync it over so it appears on your community profile. If your quit date is synced and you've indicated how many cigarettes you used to consume before you quit(update it in your community profile, otherwise we assume 20/day), your Quit Stats* will calculate how many days you've been quit and how many cigarettes you've avoided.

 

Be sure to check out our Getting Started Guide to learn about how to do other things on the site.

*To see your quit stats:  Hover over your username and then click the EX icon (my-quit-stats.png) in lower left of the pop-up hovercard OR go to your profile and then click the tab for My Quit Stats or check out the EX Quit Calculator.

Thank you.  This is a very different approach than I have tried before.  I want to know more about herbal therapy  ?

I've not seen anyone here mention use of herbal therapy.  This isn't to say no one has used it, I just haven't seen it discussed.

Thank you so much for that welcome.I was hoping you had a mobile App coming. I had trouble with trying to set up my profile through browser.

anitaboyd39‌ Welcome and thanks for the reply.  We don't have an app as our site is mobile responsive.  Thanks for your comment about your profile. Someone else mentioned that today and I'm looking into their comments too.  Could you send me an email to feedback@becomeanex.org with the experience you had editing your profile and I can look into it further.

Thanks Mark for the welcome.  Quit date was Oct 14th!  Three full days.  I almost slipped today while at work, but somehow held on.  Can’t wait till the hard days are over...

Keep holding on.  The best is yet to come.  Seriously.  For most of us it took a while before we felt "comfortable" in our new quit skin.  The hard days WILL end.  https://excommunity.becomeanex.org/groups/positive-affirmations-and-support/blog/2017/10/24/its-gonn...‌  Congrats on your three smoke-free days.  No meant feat!
