February 2019: Welcome new members!

[CommunityAdmin]

The February 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.

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 in to 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.

Thanks! I'm happy to be here and thrilled to start enjoying life free of tobacco!

[CommunityAdmin]

We're glad you're here too!

[Dezholliday]

Thank you I'm glad, excited, happy, nervous, and scared to be here honestly. One of the biggest decisions I've made smoking has been my go to my bff so thank you for the support. 

[CommunityAdmin]

You made the right decision.  Is your BFF willing to stop by to learn how they can support you better? Were they a smoke previously?

No my friends don't really smoke only 1 and shes very supportive and I've been sharing things I've learned on the site with my cousin who i live with an she hates smoking so shes very very supportive. I'm glad I'm here too it took a long time to get to the place in life where I dont want to smoke anymore. 

[Giulia]

You're not alone.  It took most of us here a long time to get to the place in life where we don't want to smoke any more.  And it takes a while to get to the point where we actually ENJOY not smoking.  That comes in time.  Time is the cure.  Hang in.
