I feel so much better. I can breathe ... take long breaths and exhale it all. I must have been so congested because I would get winded after going up a flight of stairs. I have, I'm sure, done irreparable harm to my lungs and as I age, it will probably get worse. But I don't have to make it any worse. That's why I decided to take this quit so seriously. I don't want to get any worse. It just happens all of a sudden, too. I noticed it when I was doing gardening the last couple of years.... I would get winded so fast! I just raked a bunch of leaves and I did get a workout but I was not winded like I would be had I been smoking. So, I am happy I was able to do the leaf raking. Plus, it gave my face a great color!

It's great seeing and feeling the life-saving results of quitting. Hang in there. It just gets better and better. Keep raking and breathing. Wink

Congratulations on sticking with it. The feelings of becoming helthier have only just begun. Be strong, Be tuff.
