Happy Monday!

5 11 153

Good morning and happy Monday my friends! I hope you are all having a wonderful smoke-free day! I just put my 18th X on the calendar and made my pledge not to smoke today! I’ve had a couple of rough spells over the last few days but haven’t given in. The craves don’t seem to come as often. I have my mornings tackled with a new routine, it is the afternoons that are difficult when I start to let down or get bored. I still need to go out and buy a puzzle book to play with when I have time. Or start reading one of my many books that are waiting for me. But I really need to do something more active to keep me busy. I’m just not a good sitter! Now that it’s cooler getting out and walking is great! And working in my garden with my succulents! Keeping the mind and hands occupied!

I hope you all have a fantastic day!😊

About the Author

I am a 59 year old single female who loves animals, working in my yard and photography. I currently have 7 animals: 2 dogs, 3 cats and 2 parrots. I love the outdoors, especially the ocean, and like to get outside as often as possible. I became very sick In 2017 and I was diagnosed with Myofibrillar Myopathy, a rare form of muscular dystrophy, in 2018, and had two major spinal surgeries to correct neuromuscular scoliosis, which was causing a 75° curve in my lumbar spine, in 2019. I then had my left knee replaced in 2020 (my right one had been replaced in 2016). So I have been through a lot of surgeries in the last six years. Not to mention several that came before that. I am on a quest to get healthier and I’m currently on a weight loss journey to lose 55lbs, which I’ve already lost 40lbs. I want to quit smoking while I am on my weight loss program so that I don’t gain weight during the quit! I’ve quit smoking several times in my life for over 2 years, and one time for 10 years! This time I want to quit for good! I know I can do it! It is just going to take willpower and the right state of mind. I’m hoping that this program and support group can help me achieve that! From what I have seen so far of the group, I want to remain a long-term member, and be able to share my advice and story 10 years down the road! I am finding that helping others quit, helps me stay quit!!
