My foot is healed.

I fractured my foot back the end of February.  I've had four appointments since.  Today he said it's still cracked but it looks sturdy, so I can get back to walking and Yoga.  I had panic today in the cab on the way there and also in the office.  I really wanted to smoke before I left, but I faced my fears and went.  I did not smoke and I don't need surgery on my foot!

Yay!  Went through the same thing several years ago with a small fracture on a metatarsal.  No fun at all.  Glad you can get back to your routine!

Great news Christine.   So glad you can get back to walking.  It helped me so much early in my quit.

Yoga - yes, get back to it!  The benefits are countless.  So proud of you for protecting your FOREVER quit, Christine13 !  You do not want to go backwards now.  It is time to move forward on to a better, healthier life.

About the Author
I'm a widow now, my husband passed away January 1, 2018 He died of COPD, and pre leukemia and the flu. He quit smoking 15 years ago which gave him extra time. I am a mother, and grandmother. I have smoked for 47 years. I am going to have my forever quit and I'm doing it for me and my two daughters so I can live longer and be with them. I like to read, swim, garden, crochet, paint and doodle. I also enjoy walking and visiting with friends and family. I am 100% making this my last quit. I have been in denial about what smoking has done to me and my kids. I must make a new life for myself and it doesn't include cigarettes. I may already have COPD, but have not been officially diagnosed.
