Well I am positively thrilled to report that I am a non smoker of 38 days. After 20 years of smoking a pack a day and after 20 years of convincing myself why I should quit smnoking, I have let go of this addiction and I could not be happier with my decision. I will certainly say that I have had some difficult moments. Adjusting to life without a drug i've so heavily relied on has been challenging but I continue to recognize and appreciate the benefits of a smoke-free lifestyle, and the more I do, the easier gets. Thank you all for your support and kind words. It has been incredibly helpful.
