Hi you!! I haven't smoked in a week =)!! It hasn't been easy but it has been a whole week! Yay me!! I am using the patch and that has certainly made it easier. I quit once in my 30's using the patch. I picked up smoking two years later, though, and continued to smoke another seven years. Oh, don't ever think just one won't hurt when you are a smoker who has quit. It DOES!! I tried Chantix (a smoking-cessation drug) a couple of months ago and I got so darn sick on it I couldn't continue. Wish me well and if you are a praying person, I would appreciate your prayers!
What I really came on here for is to let you all know is that the deadline for the Weekly Sentence Game is in about four hours. If you would like to still play the letters are JDATRP. The deadline is 4PM EDT. If you want to play click on the link below:

Wishing you luck Val and praying you will make it. I have never managed to kick the habit and I have tried patches and hypnotherapy.

I wish you well with the no-smoking. And you're so right, 'just one' will almost always end in tears. I know this from experience.
ReplyDeleteBe strong.

I quit in January and used chantix and had wonderful results. But..... after 4 months, I just started the nasty habit again. I'm going back on chantix and I think staying on it longer than I did before. Good luck and best wishes to the both of us!
