Made it to 16 months.
 Today is an amazing day for me. Which I silently celebrate. Every day I get air in my lungs, a kiss from my kids, and hug from my grandbabies, Love from family members, a cuddle or for of love from my animals or feel love from and for friends ..is a moment to celebrate. But today is because I have made it to 16 months smoke free and possibly allowed myself to have more of the above! I must be honest..This last month has been extremely trying on me. Many times I have struggled with the desire to have a smoke. I seriously began to think I would cave...Though I did not. And today I thank myself and those who suport me for that! Many stressers have happened. Many health issues with loved ones and myself. So I am here to ask those who have gone through this before me...WHAT CAN I DO WHEN TIMES GET REALLY HARD? I guess I am doing ok but I have felt really weak at times. Suggestions? Anyways... for today I will celebrate silently and be proud I have chosen to live....smiles And as for any updates on my scans..none yet...but hopefully soon. Have a beautiful day everyone! Its worth the struggle to stop. I promise! Who else is still with me? .

The regret will be greater than the moment in lack of discipline
OK LP, so think of this exactly how it is feeling to you. This is another level you have reached my friend. The 16 months of success have given you possibly some false security at times and now is when you need it the most. So many things going on in your life, energy is hard to come by. You got this dear.....you have the strength of 16 months within you that you have accomplished.....never to be taken away, never. Time to build another level, you won't keep feeling this pull towards smoking with negative energy. It will change by your doings. Call up your strength, and do not allow the mortal weakness that is in your mind over smoking again. Your past is just that.....this level needs your future dreams, loves, and whats in your heart. There will be other levels even after this my friend, but I agree this place is the hardest after being so successful. Smoking is not in your future, cast it out. You control this about yourself, not the weakness or misplaced desire. We are human sweetie, I know you read this post from me with the affection I have for you and having followed you in this smoking cessation from month one with great admiration. My words are for you, my light is arriving with my words. Sweet 16 my dear.......how cool is it to be there 2 times in your life huh??

sweet 16 ain't what it used to be .... :)
Congrats LP......sweet 16......so many amusing things to say about that!
You have done something wonderful for your future. You are more than worth it. So it is not about "earning it".....or having it "owed to you from past sacrifices".......you deserve it LP.......just because you are making it happen for a future with so much more to accomplish.

In the last 3 and a bit years since I gave up there's been a few stresses...splitting with a long term lover, being told my home of 16yrs is being sold and not least, giving up other things that were killing me. The only way through these times?
~ Sheer bloody mindedness! ~ Will-power! ~ The knowledge that for me, if I start again, I'm sentencing myself to losing my remaining lung .gif "Say What?") No other way round it I'm afraid. No magic pill or incantation works...although prayer does help for me in such circumstances. That's life when you give up stuff...I wish it wasn't

For some reason my reps was not working so I will state it here:
not2shygrrl..I wanted to thank you for your continued cheering...smiles It always makes me smile. And yes, I know your right. And I do believe the antra is a good idea...ty again Daktari... Thank you so much and yes I am strong willed. I know I will make it but sometimes things just tug..as you know. Thank you for sharing your words with me today. I think having this sound board and advice from others that I have and will do fine! Thanks again!
