Cigarettes Not Smoked
I'm recovering, still taking Pamalor for neuropathic pain & Mobic for inflammation. Currently I’m working to strengthen my core to better support the spine, and losing weight trying to get pressure off the joints. I was on Prednisone for a bit and just blew up. I’m monitoring my exercise and my calorie intake, so far so good. I’m limited to low impact work outs and I have to be especially careful with my back.
I was able to stay strong, by avoiding situations when I could, and when I couldn’t just sheer stubborn will power. I feel better, my kids & my other half are proud of me, I can now smell cigarettes (that actually took a bit) and I don’t want to smell like that. My sister was married in Vegas in June, my first time in Vegas as a non-smoker hanging out with my smoker friends, it was tough but I made it. I kept reminding myself, yes it sucks, yes I’m craving, but it will get better and the more I just don’t do it I the better it will be. I have dreamed of smoking (especially with the Pamalor), I wake up in a cold sweat, but I refuse to go back to it.
I'd like to join you this morning Duffis with my 26 smoke free days.
