But, I haven't forgotten about this wonderful site.  Even though I have not blogged since March I  still checked in from time to time.  Today is my 123rd day!!!  I could not have made it without the help of this site and YOU.  Now that the 1st quarter of the year is over and things on the job began to settle down I will blogging more....fingers crossed.

So here is a high leve of how my NOPE is going.  Since my quit I've gained a total of 14lbs 😞  Everything taste so good and I justified eating everything in site because I quit smoking and I deserved it.  LOL  Since my 'fluff' is not cute I decided to move my meat and loose these unwanted lbs.  I'm walking more, juicing and eating sensibly.  Who would have thought that I would look forward to jucing veggies but I am and juicing has given me so much energy...it's unreal 🙂

I am no longer using the NRT (yeah).  One morning I did not reach for the gum and by night fall I realized I did not miss it..oh my.  So now here I am a week without my NRT and I feel great .  I still keep a few pieces in my purse just in case the nicodemon raise it's ugly head. 

This Saturday I am walking in the American Cancer Society Making Strides Against Breast Cancer walk.....so I want you all to cheer us on!!  This is my 1st physical event since I quit smoking and when I reach the finish line I'm going to blow kisses to the women and men that succumed to this disease.  Hopefully with events like this we can inspire hope by raising funds and awareness to help those facing this disease. 

Until the next blog~~~NOPE!!!!
