Difficulty trying to quit but I set a date

I have been battling this addiction for too long. I set my date once again for May 2. I wonder why battling this addiction is difficult for me. I tried several times and I allowed it to get the best of me. It is time to take my life. Ack and get healthier. I am not a grandma yet but I would love to be around for that. I am going to do my best and seek the help of loved ones to give me strength. Of pray so that my lord can give me above all the strength to do it once and for all

Look at it differently.

The old way didn't work for you. Let us help you get the right attitude

It's not a matter of willpower or sacrifice -it's more about retraining your brain so you canchange your perspective. That's why the reading is so effective. Allow yourself to look at what you gain as an EX not what you lose - which is honestly just your FIX! That sickerette isn't helping at all and it IS killing you one puff at a time! So put on your QUITITUDE and READ and BLOG!

Look....prior to coming here I was the biggest quit failure ever. I tried at least 10 times. Never got past a month or so. Then I read the book Strudel is telling you about. To me, THAT is what changed my attitude. I saw things differently afterward. I knew what to expect. I wanted to get started. I quit before my date arrived and just blew past 90 days! Listen to the eXperts! They'll guide you through this. I'd tell you " good luck ", but I believe luck is for rabbit's! JUST DO IT!!! You're in the right place! You got this!!!

Thanks to all who commented on this difficult journey. I wanted to let you know that I have begun as of April 26th a few days before my actual date May 2nd. I needed to let it go I have been wanting to for a long time. My mind thought that it was difficult but I have begun my journey and I plan on going all the way. I have begun to exercise with my daughter and it feels great. Thanks again for all the support. God Bless
