May 2022: Welcome new members!

[CommunityAdmin]

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. Come back to the community.
3. Look at your profile (round avatar image in upper right then choose My Profile) and confirm your correct date is showing**.

** If your quit date appears on your EX Plan but not on your Community Profile, don't worry. We're aware that this is happening to some members on the community and it's being actively looked into. Hopefully in the near future all members who have set a quit date will be able to see it on the community as well.

Thanks for the shout out, I actually quit at 11:10 am May 7th CST so I'm a little over 2 days in, today is definitely going better than the first 24 hours, I'm finding it tough to stay busy, I'm pacing alot and fidgety, but I am going strong, the advice that I read about facing the crave rather than ignore it is helping immensely, I decided to go the cold turkey route
