It has been one week since I have had a cigarette and I am so proud of myself for taking responsibility for my addiction. It was a spontaneous decision to quit and so far I "have not" smoked 60 cigarettes and saved $21.
This past week tested every fiber of my being. There were so many times when I could have hopped in my car and bought a pack of smokes but I didn't. I do not want to be a nicotine addict anymore. I went through the fire (withdrawls) and I don't ever want to go through that again.
After 25 years of smoking, I feel like I have given myself a second chance to get it right.
