Today is the Great American Smokeout. I've been smoke free for several months now. I had started again when my Mom passed away last year. I was looking for any comfort I could find. I had actually been dreaming about smoking. Isn't that crazy? I then smoked through the stress of putting on my sister's wedding. I was smoking on and off -- rarely buying a pack, just bumming them or having my pack last about a week or so. It didn't matter that I wasn't smoking much, I was smoking again and it needed to stop. I am glad it smells horrible to me again. I'm glad that I never quit quitting.... if at first I fail, try and try again.
If you are quiting today I wish you the best! Life is too short -- it is worth the effort to quit smoking and stay here longer. That, and death by caner sucks.

That's fantastic!!! I never took up smoking, but many friends/loved ones have and I see how haaaaaaaaard it is to quit. Good for you!

good for you.
I wish I could stop eating.
(well stop eating too much.)
I never took up smoking because I saw how hard it was for my dad to quit. I figured I probably had an addictive personality too and would be too weak to quit if I started.
COngrats to YOU! So proud of you!
Good for you, you will be so glad that you did this!!! I've heard several times that it doesn't usually happen the first time, so you are not alone. The important thing is not to give up, you have soooo many reasons to keep trying, mainly those precious two kiddos!!! :)
