I am almost to 400 days not smoking. 400 days of being smoke free - nicotine free - and free of all the guilt and shame that came along with smoking.
I look back on what I put myself through with the guilt and the self loathing - and I am SO happy that it is GONE. I have self esteem issues enough with my weight - I don't feel like a failure now - I don't care that I have 20 lbs to lose. I will do that. I KNOW how to do that.
For 37 years I didn't know how to quit smoking - but now I do - I have been done with smoking for over a year now - I think I've figured it out! So thank you all - again - for all your support over the last 399 days. I know that this site is a huge part of my quit. I know that those of you who've offered support ( those of you who've shared your stories and your struggles - your victories and your successes!) all of you have contributed to my ongoing success in this forever quit!
God bless you all - and thank you from the bottom of my SMOKE FREE HEART!
*hugs*
Alice
