I woke up today, to a new day

[sandragonfly]

oh good it doesn't sound as hard as it is. guess you have made a really good big step, sue!

yes, you need to eat more anyway! when I hugged you, you were a skeleton.

gums, thanks for joining me I chew a lot lately under stress so I'd not grind and breaking my jaws! but not recently because it's a bit sore.. ..be careful with your jaws.

one time my (bio) mother who smoked for eleven years until she had me, she started with regular gums, about a year later after all the time she didn't realize she have been grinding her teeth every night.. one morning, she woke up, yawning and there went a *pop*! her jaws stucked opening for at least 6 hours....painful she recalled!

anyway, keep us (especially me) updated!

You beat me to it . Maybe Ladys human should take you all to an all you can eat buffet. I could give both some in a fat transplant.

Sounds good to me. LOL Do you thinbk he'll see this post... and agree to it?

[Corinna]

I think he has given enough to the situation I wouldn't want to ask more of them .
All I can say is that he and Karen (you too Sue) are the best models of what Jesus wanted us to be like. I felt helpless in the thing but you guys carried of great.

How's it going today? You're doing better than I ever have...that's really great. Just think of how much healthier you're going to be.

Great job Sue!! Keep up the good work! The fidgeting is normal. Remember you're coming off of an addiction. Don't worry too much about the eating either. You can deal with that later Just keep thinking how much better you're going to feel. No more smelly clothes, hair, etc.(I hope this doesn't offend you) You'll get rid of that irritating cough and breathing will be a pleasure. You can do it! You have a ton of support behind you here!

Oh I know, I was just kidding since you brought it up. lol

Thanks for the kind words. I try my best to be a decent person & to help out others when I can.


I did break down yesterday & bummed a cigg from my neighbor. I didn't smoke the whole thing though. I took about 3-5 puffs, put it out & about a half hour later I smoked 3-5 more puffs. I didn't want to but I figured I had to. I had the worst migrane ever. After 1.5 days with a headache & one day with the migrane & I couldn't get rid of it with advil, alieve or sleep. It was so bad I could barely see & god forbid if any noise was made. Ouch! It did help my migrane, it brought it from a migrane to a regualr headache but it did make my neasaus feeling worse. And I haven't smoked one since. I woke up this am with a slight headache still but it is just about gone now. I feel bad but it did help.
So do I count today as my quitting day or not? I only smoked it to see if it would help with my migrane.

No, I think you're ok. I did the same thing, quitting cold turkey wasn't really an option for me. You didn't smoke the whole thing, and I bet it's less than you were smoking before - A lot of people quit by cutting down little by little, so that little bit is ok
