Positive Affirmations and Support

Don't feel bad Ali. I guess I could be guilty of the same thing. My morning was he** and I was talking to a friend who was smoking and although I didn't ask for a drag I really wanted too. Did inhale some of the smoke off it though. Didn't help the stress level. Got a lozenge in my mouth right now. They work pretty good at taking the edge off.

It's so refreshing to read all your guy's supporting words on here. All I have to do is come on here, and my cravings vanish. It's such a relief. You all are awesome!

  I'm a little scared today.....it's my first official week. I feel great, and am not having too many cravings. But it's kinda the point of no return for me. I'm way more scared of relapsing now. Plus, (I know this sounds weird) I think I'm in mourning over losing the smokes. It's kinda like I lost a friend. Any-who, just felt like I needed to vent a little. Take care all!

It took me almost 2 months, and I never could decide a "quit date". But then, it came. Just talking to others, reading their stories, and relating to successes and failures, gave me the strength to keep dreaming about quitting. I'm only on my second day, but it's a start. It hasn't been too bad but I know the worse is to come. I know I can be so very weak, but I force myself to look at how strong I am in so very many other areas in my life. I have to catch myself because I don't like to lose, and if I do, I beat myself up pretty bad. I'm scared to death but have made it two days. Small baby steps I guess.

  Have a WONDERFUL week!

I would love to plan a trip to Ireland....I think that in a few years (to give the kids a little more time to grow up) I would have more than enough to have a great trip!
