Ha! Yes I am cracking that whip big time! (Insert cracking whip sound here ) So are you! And...we are doing it without heels too. Man. Isn’t it strange to look back? Just feels surreal. We are doing this Eve. Crazy and hectic and nerve wracking for sure, but...empowering and motivating and exciting too, isn’t it? Well, I will say, I do know I wouldn’t be where I am with it had we not connected, and I am very very happy we did! 
Stay the course....that’s all we gotta do Eve. We already did the quit part,  ow we just gotta stay the course. Keep on keeping on! Woohoo! 
Katchheee! Maybe that doesn’t translate well. Was supposed to be sound of whip cracking. I can say it, pretty well in fact, as when I make that sound Daughter knows she better get moving , but can’t really write it! 
Big big big HUGS to you St Eve!!!

Katchheee.....
 

translated perfectly!

Thanks for the recognition.  Almost to the year mile stone.  

YAHOO!  You did it EVE!  Today is the first anniversary of your quit!!!!  It has been a pleasure to hang around with you during this first year. Big HUGS to you!  I am so glad another friend has shown up to the party - Let’s go happy dancing while we wait for the other to arrive!

Oh!!! I just made you celebration note in another thread too Eve before I saw this! This is good though because you definitely should have two of a good thing Eve!! Oh and I see my spaces are gone now. So so proud of you Eve!! Yay! Yippee!! Woohoo!! 
Susan you have to tell me how to put the little pictures! I only know how to put picture pictures. Also I LOVE YOUR BEAUTIFUL KEY!!! 

Thanks so much to both of you! Boy it has definitely been a bumpy ride! I am still a lil unsure of when that peace comes, but I know ONE THING.......I will not have a puff ever! NOPE! I know for me that THAT is not an option! If I do I will be back full blown smoking in no time. So I have reluctantly accepted that I am an addict. And the only way to stay smomber is not not ever indulge! 
 

***side note I have 2 more pounds to lose to get back to my before smoking/Covid weight! Yeah. This is my new focus! 
 

Susan and Lore, been an interesting,amazing, bumpy ride to get here.....but so happy to have you here to support me! 
Couldn’t have done it without you! Thanks for your support and the humorous distraction with the games! Been great! 
 

Hugs and more hugs to you both! 

Hey Chris!
 

Did I miss your one year day? I’m so sorry!

Big big congratulations to you!!! 

How does it feel???

Thank you.  I told someone the other day that I do still have moments I miss it but they don't last and I feel so much better.  I don't get proud of myself usually  but this is certainly an accomplishment and I am proud.

How are you?

I am proud. Thank you.  1 year and 16 days.  It feels great.

Hey Chris......congratulations on 1 year! Yes I still think about it too.......we smoked for SO LONG, that I think it may take some time for me at least to really feel like I am a non smoker.

Believe me very happy to have quit , but still waiting for the “peace.”

CONGRATS FOR JOINING THE CLUB!
