About Jaded

Jaded
Female
Ohio, United States
About Me:
I'm a married mother of three, 2 teen age girls and one 11 yr old boy, enough stress in my life to make anyone want to smoke!

I have been a smoker for the past 25 years. I LOVED to smoke, I would go without eating before not having my smokes. This is my second quit, I quit for a year one time and started back again. How dumb can any person be?!

OMG!


My quit began Three Months, Three Days, 10 Hours and 50 Minutes ago, while extending my life expectancy 11 Days and 11 Hours, by avoiding the use of 3306 smokes that would have cost me $622.25.

Wow, hard to believe isn't it. Maybe not for you but for me it truly is. I would have never in my wildest dreams believed that I would not be smoking…

Can you handle the truth?

I've been a member here since right before my quit, a couple of days I think. And I usually pop in at least every day to read what others are saying on the main page of the community. Some of you may think eh, what does she know she only quit Two Months(+Eleven Days, 10 Hours and 44 Minutes) ago.

I'm not trying to say that I know it all, that I know more than him/her, I'm only passing on what I do know and have learned about quitting this addiction to others in hope they will get inspi…

65 days and an update!

Wow, it's hard to believe I have not smoked a cigarette for over 2 months. Time does fly once you get past all the time consuming thoughts about smoking, not to say I don't still think about it. I do, at least once a day. I have to admit that sometimes just coming here makes me think about smoking. Not that I would because I have no desire to go back to that place. No desire...

I wish everyone that wants to quit the success I have had. It's not easy people but you have to hang in there.…

Day 51

Wow, typing that seemed odd. 51 days sounds longer than 1 month 20 days. However, it has been the longest 51 days of my life. Not in a bad way, it a different way.

I've made a ton of changes, some I just started this week, like working out. I started on Monday, treadmill and bicycle are my main tools. I plan on doing 1 hour +/- every week day in the gym hoping to get in shape asap. I did put on 10 pounds since my quit began. I didn't really watch what I was eating, but that wasn't my m…

Tomorrow is my birthday

I've already given myself the best birthday present anyone could possibly give me, but I would like to be able to give this gift to someone else who really wants it. When I blow out my candles tomorrow I will make a wish for everyone that comments (maybe not by name!) and is truly ready to quit!

I will say this again, it's not an easy road but one well worth the struggle. Good luck to all of you who are sick to death of this addiction. I know exactly how you feel!!
