Celebrating a milestone

In my humble opinion, today is a milestone—it’s day 100 of my forever quit! I’m super proud of myself, but staying humble. Previous quits weren’t successful, but I’ve learned so much here and this group, even though I’m not on every single day, is still my accountability group! I need accountability and I love the stats here! My excitement mounted each day I got closer to 100. I am in direct sales and was at an event yesterday. A lady set up fairly close to me is a smoker. I smelled her every time she walked by and I noticed her cough a few times during the day as well. Early in my quit, when a smoker walked by, I had a craving. Yesterday, I was like, oh my goodness, I smelled so very bad!! I know I’m still going to have craves, but I’m happy to witness that my mindset seems to be changing.  100 DOF and living by NOPE NMW!!

ONE HUNDRED DAYS IS a milestone!  I myself lost many a quit during the third month but made it through this time--my FOREVER quit-with the help of my wonderful EX friends.  You are so right, we DiD stink and it is one of the main reasons I will NEVER smoke again!  Keep up the good work!

Congratulations on your 100 days.  That is definitely a great milestone.  So glad you made it.  It just keeps getting better.  It's great that you're noticing your mindset change.  That was one of my first realizations too.  My goodness the smoke smells bad and I was thankful I didn't smell anymore.  Keep going   NMW.

Hey, "Need!"

It looks like you have set your quit date for New Year's Day?  If so, I hope you are using the time leading up to it by reading, planning and preparing ?  Have you decided what quit aid, if any, you are going to use?

Stay in touch!  We can help you get ready!

Hi Nancy,

Thanks for reaching out to me.   I am SO worried about this.   I HAVE TO QUIT for surgery & I need the surgery soon.  I have a Dr appt this Saturday.   Going to ask the doc to up the Wellbutrin to 300 mgs.(which is the standard dosage for smoking cessation)    She started me slowly on 100, then 200 which I am on now.   I hate all of these Meds.   Wish I could just do it cold turkey as quite a few have.

I know the "slippery places" to stay away from..  And I know all of the triggers.   Here's to hoping that I can do this!

I need reassurance.     40 yr.- pack a day (or less) smoker.

I got ya' beat - I smoked a bit more than a pack for 40 years, and I quit - on my very first (and only attempt).  My advice comes from reading here for the past 7 years...I promise you that once you do the reading and the homework I have recommended, you won't be "hoping" you can quit - you will be DOING it!.

Mindset has a huge amount to do with your success or failure at this, and following the steps outlined  and reading all you can here on the site will help you get yours in the right place.

Let us know if you have any questions.  We will stay with you as you get ready, and as you take this quit journey!

Oh my Gosh, Nancy!!!!   You came to me at the perfect time.   You will be my inspiration as I take this journey.  I'm still new to this web community so I don't know all the abbreviations yet, but I'm learning!   I've read a ton on here today & have ordered the book that others mentioned by Allen Carr.

How do I follow you & your posts?
