Sunday smoke free

Well I've accomplished another smoke free day and attended a wedding yesterday. There were plenty of smokers around and I feel urges but did not succumb. I'm finding that I don't feel the urge to smoke when I'm surrounded by smokers, it's the usual times for me, after eating, boredom, something to do. 

I think I did a good job at the wedding where I didn't know many people and seems like everyone is staring..I danced drank and ate and smiled.

Still to this day it does not bother me being around smokers. In my mind I am saying "there by the grace of God go I"

You actually see how utterly ridiculous it is, I am over the shame part of it as that is how I felt in the beginning "oh my gosh is that how I looked dragging on a cigarette"

Fabulous You for another Day Won

A great day starting another week as a non smoker.

Have a great day

That's great.  We learn new associations every time we do something without smoking.  Being around smokers doesn't bother me much either.  I was around my sister the first week and I was OK.

CONGRATULATIONS...AND you LOOKED amazing, I am guessing that is you?  I have issues being around smokers NOT because it triggers me at all but because I have done so much damage to my lungs by smoking myself that I don't want to have second hand smoke introduced into them.  

GREAT JOB!

Jkl410‌ You are so welcome.  The smell of smoke really is disgusting and to think I smelled like that for so long makes me cringe.  You are doing GREAT!
