I finally quit smoking

Just a follow-up.

Tomorrow is 2 months since my last cigarette. I don't have physical cravings/yearnings/whatever at all. Occasionally, I 'think' (as opposed to feel that) I'd like a smoke, strangely it's usually when I see someone smoking on tv. Being around smokers isn't bothering me at all. And I've had plenty to drink plenty of times and not a problem.

I think I've kicked the bastards for good.

Way to go Lisa - that is good news.

Until I blew out my appendix not too long ago, I was well on my way to getting right into the whole running and jogging thing I was talking about in earlier posts. I've had to modify my plan slightly and postpone it a bit due to the amount of time needed to recover from what happened but nonetheless I am still smoke free (2 months plus now) and I too am not looking back either.

Its strange though. All of my so-called 'smoking friends' have stopped calling!

And whenever I go anywhere for a walk or any social function, I can smell a smoker from a mile away and it makes me cringe now and in some cases I even struggle to breath!! I never expected that to happen.

Great for you Lisa! You did it..

Maybe some day I'll be saying the same thing.
