me too... and you guys...i got a little weepy hahahaha!!!!
and yes, any newbies...it feels good and i am still struggling, but i am keeping this new additude so that when the struggles hit, i know it's just a bit, a test, something that if i give in- i'm toast....i see it all around me (my boss started up again) and i am very proud that even though quiting quiting seems easier- it's not worth it... it's feeling this good is what's worth it...
and just so everyone knows - more challenges...my boyfriend challenged me to a 1/2 marathon...started running 2 miles night...already lungs feel good and getting faster every night...and this is from me a heavy 2 pk day 16 year smoking champ....

This is a huge step and one of the best discoveries - the day you start to define yourself as non smoker. I'm so so glad to see this leela - and get a load of those 122 days already!! Well done, you!
