I am so super proud of you! You have really shown nerves of steel through your quit. To have done what you have accomplished and at such a young age is wonderful. Life will be so much better. You could not have given yourself a better gift.
Hopefully, you will pop back in to read this... I want you to know how much you helped me back in the summer.
I was at my lowest point and you said something very sweet that just kept echoing in my head. Really. You hadn't been quit for very long and I was at about 100 days and you said that I had done "so well for so very long". Funny how a phrase will resonate but it made me think that yes, I had some days under my belt and could do more, that it was a lot of days in other's eyes. It touched me deeply and I still remember it. Thank you. Thank you for posting that day.
See? You didn't even know that, did you?
You deserve all the joy of the season and more! Congratulations on your best Christmas gift ever!
Here's to six months and many more... a toast!
xoxo

Well I made it to 6 months, yeah, yippee, am sooooo excited to be celebrating tomorrow!! I dont think I would have made it without you all, so thank you for all your support and heres to the best christmas gift we can give ourselves.....QUITTING!!
Its been tough at times and then a bit tougher and just when you think your thru the worst, bam, it hits you right inbetween the eyes and there comes another craving - or of course the tears (of which there have been many over the last 6m!!) However that all said, to quit smoking was by far the very best descision of my life and 6m on I can, proudly and more importantly confidently state that I am a non smoker....and at long last pick up a packet of cigs, stare them straight in the box and screw them up and tread on them and tell them that I will never flip that lid open again......EVER...NOPE NOPE NOPE NOPE NOPE NOPE!!! THIS IS MY FOREVER QUIT, MY LAST QUIT!!! ha ha ha yippee am sooooo proud of myself!!!!!
MERRY SMOKE FREE XMAS X X X X X SMOKIE JO OR SHOULD I SAY NON SMOKIE JO!!!!
