bold You are one of my favorite people here, simply because I hear how tightly your emotional states are tied to nicotine. I understand. Believe me I truly understand...However, and this will sound trite and common, but it is true "SMOKING NEVER SOLVED A PROBLEM"...What it does is allows us to sink deeper inside of ourselves so that we don't have to feel the rage, hurt, anger, sadness or whatever emotion is being raised by external stimuli...It numbs us, creates a void between the uncomfortable feelings and us...But I tell you as true as I am able, that you have the capacity to weather any emotional upheaval sans the nicotine. When hard times come around, don't reach for the nicotine to shield you from the rain. Have faith in yourself, and recognize that what you are feeling is just that which you are feeling. It is no more than a passing emotional shower. It will end. If you use nicotine as an umbrella against the down pour you will end your existance on the planet earlier than need be. And you know what, the rain will stop just the same... nonic [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B]12/25/2006 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 229 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 6,870 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $1,603.00 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 41 [B]Hrs:[/B] 21 [B]Mins:[/B] 34 [B]Seconds:[/B] 7

excellent Bold, I am thrilled you hung tough. Get your weapons and coping skills ready. I notice you have movies and water, those are great weapons. I like diet cranraspberry (OceanSpray) juice with diet mt dew and sour jelly bellies. I adore Nascar, so I watch a ton of that. (Go Tony!!!) and I read alot. We have lots of low cal snacky things around here. So prepare yourself, and post here first if you have a hard time - then wait. Some one will come along. Just don't smoke!!

sounds like a great plan, bold. Want me to bump up some of those Junkie Thinking threads for you? Oh! And have you thought of a reward for those awesome 2 weeks??? Is your meter right? You used to smoke 3-4 cigs a day? And yes, a little cooler here..but hot for us...upper 80s. Of course we have the ocean :8|: One of my sons lives there, the other is going back there in about a month. I've always lucked out when visiting...hottest was only 105...lol [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B]3/22/2007 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 140 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 5,600 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $952.00 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 19 [B]Hrs:[/B] 14 [B]Mins:[/B] 41 [B]Seconds:[/B] 19
