Hello!

One week ago I wrote a blog,

 https://excommunity.becomeanex.org/blogs/Terrie_Quit-blog/2016/10/18/hi-my-name-is-terrie-and-i-have...

Since that time I have been living in today! I gave my past to God, again for the last time! I am determined to let him keep it this time! No more take backs, no more guilt! I am living one day at a time, just as I tell all of you to do! Let me tell you, I feel AMAZING and worth it like I have earned and deserve to be in the place I am in! Thank-You to all that commented on that blog. You helped me more than you will ever know! Your encouragement and support are worth its weight in gold! phase 2 of my journey coming right along! Newbies, it does work, it just takes time! You can do it!

Terrie moving along, 477 days, one day at a time!

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 :)
