Hey, hey, hey, 400 days! Ya know something funny, I couldn't wait to hit a year. I thought the day would never come. Well, listen to this. The days between then and now have flown by! 

If you are waiting on your quit day, or just did quit, or have some days. I know it's hard! It was no walk in the park for me either, but when folks tell you "it gets better, they start forgetting how many days they have and have to look at the calendar, It just gets better and better"! It's true It does! The freedom is well worth the wait! Do the work and give your quit the time that it needs and just NEF (never ever forget) where you came from and you will have a smoke~free life, too!! A word that has been coming up a lot! Doable!

Listen to suggestions, read, use your quit toolbox, stay committed and cut the excuses and just quit and maintain your quit!

Terrie 400 DOF!

Don't Quit on your Quit!

Terrie,

Congrats on your wonderful milestone of 400 days. 🙂 I'm not surprised one bit to see you accomplish that milestone with your quit after seeing you exhibit the tools you use from your toolbox.  You were one of the first here to welcome me back without a hint of judgement, rather compassion and an ambassador of hope and success.  Thanks for that lift, and please enjoy this day with all of the accolades that are sure to come as a result.  Thanks for your service here on the site as well.

I remember starting a quit when you did. It's amazing to see that 400 days have gone by and I am so proud of you! You never "quit on your quit" and I'm in a place now where I won't quit on mine either. Thanks for sticking around to support me and all the others starting their journey!

About the Author
Hello, I am a 59 year old female, name Terrie, still growing up. I have moderate COPD. I am an oxygen patient, currently not in need of the 24/7 or night time oxygen. Thanks to all the great support and education I got here on EX. My original quit date was 07/06/15 on day 519 I relapsed and started over in less than 24 hours. I want to go to the great beyond being a former smoker and I shall! COPD is not choosy! and not pretty! May 1rst, 2017 I am using Dale's suggestion to put off a cigarette each time and I am down from 50 to 20. I am looking forward to my old(7-6-2015)/new quit date 7-6-2017 May 4th, 2017 I started with Marlboro reds. Nicotine is a very assinine addiction. Once addicted I found I would smoke any of it including the little cigar/cigarettes, and it's still true since I threw away my quit and stopped being true to myself. I will smoke ANYTHING with nicotine in it to get the fix. I hate smoking! I am not having a problem stopping it's staying stopped, that I am not doing! I do not buy anything but regular tobacco but if caught without it I will do anything except vape to get the fix. UPDATE POSTED 04/24/2018: Getting ready to set a quit date and begin again :)
