Today was 14 days since my last cigarette!  Wow it seems like longer but I know it hasn't been.  Still doing amazingly well most of the time.  I know 2 weeks isn't long especially for those amazing people on here that have gone months and even a year, but I'm very thankful for making it this far!

Two weeks is very good! If you want to compare your quit to those of us with longer ones, here is the way to do it!

I quit and I have not smoked since then!

You quit and you have not smoked since then!

The way I see it the best any of us can do is never smoke again! So we are all on the same page! We don't do that anymore!!

Congratulations on two weeks. Don't compete with others than have been quit longer than you.  The only you have to compete is yourself, one second, minute, hour, days and before you know years will come around.

Trust us - 2 weeks is LONG - no matter what stage the rest of us are on past that point.  We all remember what 2 weeks into it was like.  (IF we got that far.) 

Every single DAY is a milestone in the beginning of our quits.  And then we move on to weeks and months and triple digits and .....

BUT - sometimes we revert to just that "one day at a time" approach.  Because sometimes that's what's necessary to get us through the next day.  No matter WHAT stage we're in on this journey.  Sometimes it's truly a matter of one minute at a time, one day at a time.  I can't say that I've experienced that of late in my 9+ years of smoke freedom.  But I  CAN tell you that there are gonna be those times when you need to hold fast to the recognition that you made it through these two weeks. 

Because these two weeks provide the power for the next two.  And the two after that and the two after that.  Two weeks is HUGE compared to the old you.  Compared to the new quitter who has never gotten past that Day One. 

You're doing magnificently.  Keep shouting out to us about your journey.  You support us all in your steadfastness.  And you support yourself by the words you  type out here. Ya know?
