My quit date is december 7.i am really looking forward to it. im sure after the 7 i wont be LOL. i feel like i can do this because im beccoming edjucated. I always used to set these stupid magic dates " halloween will be my last day" my birthday" all this dumb crap. but i finally decided to become serious for my personal health and growth. i am trying to play with the idea that smokes ARE NOT my identity.and i dont need to feel obligated to join the herd of sheep to go smoke when im out with groups of friends. i believe that i can do this because i need to keep the montra in my head " THIS IS SOMTHING YOU WANT, DONT LET THE SMOKE WANT YOU"
Today is my Day One and I am going to make it a point to come here everyday. I am so tired of smoking but feel like I can't let it go. I am really going to stick to it this time!!!
Funny how once you don't have something you really want it. Here we go!!!!!
I really don't know what's it going to take to be ready. i feel ready i just keep on having a relapse then i start smoking again. i think i just need to not think about it and keep myself busy. And also be more diligent with taking my gum.

Hello everyone. My name is Angie and I took the pludge this morning. I have quit in the past for almost two years and gave it all up when I went out one night after my son was born. Here I am again and so far things are going ok. I am using the same patch I used in the past and it's working pretty well. I am sure I am going to be on this site a lot today looking for some encouragment : ) I hope everyone is doing ok today.
Hi everyone. Sorry I haven't been around lately getting through Turkey Day and now I am looking for a job, life has been kinda hectic and I totally got off track with tracking my smoking and identifying my triggers. Time to buckle down and do it because the 14th is coming quickly. I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving and thank you all for your support.
Hi all! I had put December 1 as my quit date but I lied...I went ahead and quit on T'giving day and haven't smoked since. Yesterday was tough but it's getting easier. Fortunately, the chantix is finally helping, too.
Hey fellow December quitters... my 1st day was yesterday and I'm on the patch... I feel like someone punched me in the arm but it feels like a friendly reminder that when there's no pain there's no gain lol... my "vivid dreams" were actually a fun side effect so looking forward to tonight haha.... well good luck all... we can do it!!!
