I haven’t been posting much the last month—I kind of dropped off the boards for a while and put my quit on the back burner in order to deal with a few things. I thought my two-month marker would be a good time to reflect on some positive things I have experienced since I quit smoking. So here I go:

I have saved almost $200 dollars by not smoking 900+ cigarettes!

I smell, look, and taste better!

I am not so groggy in the morning anymore--I am wide-awake and ready to go-- ah, the benefits of oxygen!

I have an appetite again and food taste so good!

I have a lot more time in the day and have been able to accomplishing more things. I really wasted a lot of time sitting on my porch smoking.

I can now ride my bike up a steep hill without having to either:
(1) pick my speed way up and pray I can make it or
(2) get off and walk it up!

My lungs don't hurt every time I do anything strenuous. I don't have to take breaks anymore to catch my breath when I am walking, running, or biking!

Best of all I feel so much better about me! I have a better attitude and a more positive outlook everything!

Thanks for listening!

Sandra
