Hello Everyone,

Please come to the Daily Pledge Group and renew your commitment or make a new one! It's a short week this week for most! Enjoy! I hope to see you strengthening your commitment real soon! Have a great Smoke-Free week!

We had a lot of new folks making pledges in June (on the average of 9 per day! 5 pages of pledges! WOW!) I am glad so many are making a commitment not to smoke no matter what. You are strengthening your own Quit, helping each other keep a strong Quit, helping me keep my Quit strong, and helping to keep this group successful! I will try to keep it interesting! But it is all of you showing up and making your pledge that keeps it going! If you have any fresh ideas, please share! I would like to see a lot of new folks join the group! I have been told that it is hard to navigate so if you need help, please let me know!

The New Daily Pledge Group is featured on our homepage, so you can get to it from there and there is also a link on my page.

If you are new to EX or haven't pledged in a while, here's how you pledge. Click on the link below, scroll down, reach out and take the person's hand before you, and promise not to smoke no matter what! You can state your name, # of days, post a picture or just make your pledge, then offer your free hand to the next person!

About the Author
Hello, I am a 59 year old female, name Terrie, still growing up. I have moderate COPD. I am an oxygen patient, currently not in need of the 24/7 or night time oxygen. Thanks to all the great support and education I got here on EX. My original quit date was 07/06/15 on day 519 I relapsed and started over in less than 24 hours. I want to go to the great beyond being a former smoker and I shall! COPD is not choosy! and not pretty! May 1rst, 2017 I am using Dale's suggestion to put off a cigarette each time and I am down from 50 to 20. I am looking forward to my old(7-6-2015)/new quit date 7-6-2017 May 4th, 2017 I started with Marlboro reds. Nicotine is a very assinine addiction. Once addicted I found I would smoke any of it including the little cigar/cigarettes, and it's still true since I threw away my quit and stopped being true to myself. I will smoke ANYTHING with nicotine in it to get the fix. I hate smoking! I am not having a problem stopping it's staying stopped, that I am not doing! I do not buy anything but regular tobacco but if caught without it I will do anything except vape to get the fix. UPDATE POSTED 04/24/2018: Getting ready to set a quit date and begin again :)
