Almost there! 70 Days

After all the withdrawal symptoms I overcame quitting cold turkey I finally feel close to where I want to be.

I have minor foot tingling, Stomach cramps and headaches but my doctor informed me this is what I will have to deal with now that my circulation is improving.

My suggestions: Don't Give up on yourself.

1. Go to the Gym.. I set the treadmill on 14 elevation and walk my way up for 30 minutes and pretend i am climbing the mountain to freedom.

2. Good Probiotics will help stabilize your stomach.

3. Enjoy the little things. Blast some music, enjoy a hammock, go to a festival.

4. Talk about it... People are caring and will understand what your going through.

5. Believe in yourself and the process...

any withdrawal questions feel free to ask I had them all!!!

Retired RN, smoked most of my career...makes me crazy when I think about it.   This is a GREAT blog and I really wish there was a HELPFUL button for blogs because I would be clicking away at it.  

LOVE it...CONGRATULATIONS!
