Lisa
Keep up the good work. You are doing great. Can you believe tomorrow will be day 3 already. Tomorrow might be tough....I have read that cravings peak at day 3...something about the last of the toxins leaving the body. I don't know if I have the reason right, but I do know I have read about the 3 day peak thing. Just want you to be prepared. If may not be that way for you....but just know if it is....you can make it through. You have gotten stronger with every crave. You are going to be a lifer.....a life time free of smoking. _________________

Hey Lisa!
You are on day 3 girl. You can do it. I have just rolled over to 4 days and counting.
My taste buds are back and I am finding my favorite foods may not be my favorite foods after all. grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr....i guess i need to acquire the taste for certain foods all over again. LOL!..
Anyway, congratulations on having made it this far. You go girl and you will continue to go!
For all us...HIGH FIVES! We are doing it and we can continue to do this~
Have a wonderful day everyone!

Driving in to work and it hit me. This week-end is mother's day. i pretty much fell apart. Last year about 1month before Mother's Day my mom died. So didn't even recognize it last year. Thank goodness our son is having birtheday party for both of his kids and suppose we'll do Mother's day ,but that will be More focus on kids. Sunday or Saturday morning I will make the hour trip to the cemetary to put a wreath on her grave. Haven't beem there since Christmas. She always felt very strongly about putting things on graves. IMISS MY MOM SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
MUCH. I have no GROWING UP family left my dad,brother and mom are all gone. Mom did live a long life she was 86 when she died. i AM A NON-SMOKER AND SHE WANTED ME TO QUIT CAUSE OF DAD AND BROTHER. i WILL MAKE IT HTRU THIS DAY` _________________

Lisa,
I am so sorry for what you are going through. I agree. Your Mom would be so proud of you as are all of us. And yes, you will get through this too.
Be strong Lisa. It's too easy to go back. Lock the back door tightly and if you hear a knock, DON'T ANSWER IT.
Please have a wonderful day.

Lisa,
You are doing this so well. I am proud of you as I am sure your Mom is. Now correct me if I am wrong but do we have two Lisa's quit within a day or two of each other. Sounds like a recipe for success. Two Lisa's can only mean a successful quit for both of you. _________________
I wish you peace.

Hi Alison,
I almost typed a second "L" in your name since my daughter's name is Allison. Anyway, you are correct. Calliemaee and I (both Lisas) quit within a day of each other. I actually had my last cigarette at 8 pm on May 1 and have not had one since. So according to my QuitSilk ometer, I have not smoked for 4 days, 3 hours, 27 minutes and counting. That's 82 cigarettes NOT smoked and I've added 6 hours and 50 minutes to my life.
I'm so glad I made the choice of being smoke-free. As Kevin says, chose life. I agree.
Have a wonderful, smoke-free day!

Lisa,
I'm sorry I didn't see your post in the middle there. I have the same thing happen around father's day. I understand. Revel in the kids, and I'm sure you'll be fine...
Blessings...

|

Yes Two Lisa's together can do IT! Feeling better just shaky think I am going to start having red tinkle lol from drinking so much cranberry juice. It's time to get off the whining and start giving some support back. Lisa isn't it wonderful to ba able to call yourself a non-smoker. Some benefites I've notice already are my teeth. they aren' as yellow . This is weird, but I think underneath my fingernails looks healthies. If it wasn't for all of you I would never have made it 2 and a half days[/img] _________________
