July 2019: Welcome new members!

[CommunityAdmin]

The July Quitters‌ have arrived!

There are always new members joining the community. A portion of those new members haven't set or haven't synced their quit date to the community so we can help celebrate your milestones.  

I'll be welcoming our new members and encourage you to get your quit date set and synced to the community so we can help you celebrate when you hit those milestones.

Set and Sync Quit Date

To get started you'll need to do the following:

1. Set your quit date on your Set Your Quit Date | Guides & Tools | BecomeAnEX  (or make sure it's set if you aren't sure.)
2. Log out of the community by clicking this link.
3. Then log back into the community.

When you log back in it will sync it over so it appears on your community profile. If your quit date is synced and you've indicated how many cigarettes you used to consume before you quit(update it in your community profile, otherwise we assume 20/day), your Quit Stats* will calculate how many days you've been quit and how many cigarettes you've avoided.

Be sure to check out our Getting Started Guide to learn about how to do other things on the site.

Welcome to the best support group ever. Look forward to hearing from you and cheering you on as you begin this incredible journey. 

I celebrate with you and hope you reach out if you need to.

Hugs

 Thank you.  

I will need all the help I can get.  Been smoking for 40 years. 

I am taking Chanix.  The mornings and evenings are the worst.

You got this! A new favorite site of mine (besides the ex community) is whyquit.com. information is power and quitting can be enlightening. When I crave, I start to take in information, understand my addiction, and, because I become entranced in the reading, the urges are past by the time I'm done. A strategy, 1 strategy, but your strategy may differ. It only gets easier with each urge you resist! I'm Jon, I'm an addict, I'm 12 days into recovery and my key to a successful recovery is not one puff ever (nope), getting through one urge at a time, and one day at a time. What are your keys?

I have set a quit date as Friday but in the meantime I am cutting back as much as I can so maybe I will be quite before hand. Can't hurt. I just started Chantix this morning. This time I need it to be the last. Thank you for all the detailed information. It really helps.
