I don't post much, I find I do better fighting my battles quietly. I do want to say I have been mostly quit with the exception of a couple slips for a month now. I have learned to forgive myself for those, and keep on quitting. My habits are changing, I am now addicted to Wheat Thins, cucumbers, kiwi fruit and peppermints. The real up side is when I visited my 4 year old Granddaughter this past weekend, she told me I smelled good! Apparently the smoke smell has been purged out! Happy holidays to you all, may it be filled with good company, good food, and good smells!!

Keep at it. Success is yours. That's a real motivator that your granddaughter noticed you smell good.

Good for you, keep walking the walk, remember that we are here if you need us. Try coming here BEFORE lighting up and try to see your quit as a one day at a time journey, not a battle. It HELPS not to feel like you need to fight all of the time, at least it helps ME. I found, in the past, that nicotine was stronger than I was.
