Whether you're thinking about quitting smoking and beginning your Days WON  or you're on Day 10 starting your Double Digits which is awesome being in the DDC, or you hit 100 Days WON and entering the Triple Digit Club - TDC or the Quad Squad at the 1,000  day mark and everything in between, I love all these sayings and I learned them here on this site in this community of awesome Exers who care and want all of us to succeed, I also learned these mantras here N. O. P. E.  - Not One Puff Ever - S.I.N.A.O  - Smoking Is Not An Option  - N. E. F.  - Never Ever Forget  - H. A. L. T.  - Hunger, Anger, Lonely, Tired.  - And I'm sure there's many more great mantras which help keep you motivated and great milestones to look forward to, another which I used a lot during horrid craves was giving my head several shakes and saying that I don't do that anymore and then I'd continue on with whatever I was doing and I like this one too because it'll also keep you from relapsing  ( Keep them away from your face ) and I like to say (sit on your hands) if you hit a bad crave because you can't smoke if you keep them away from your face or if you're sitting on your hands.  there really is Life after cigarettes and it's yours for the taking but you must first decide to quit smoking and then you must stick with it!

I'm a proud Gram of 2 grandsons and a granddaughter and I consider myself a jack of all trades and a master of none, plus I enjoy reading and being outside and since quitting smoking breathing is so much easier because I'm not coughing half of my time sucking on a cancer stick....
