Buddy list missing ?

I would love to use it but I have a new computer & the stupid pop-up blocker won't let me, even when it's turned off. I have been on & chatted a couple of times at work but that's kind of frowned-upon [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B]5/13/2007 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 7 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 140 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $77.00 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 0 [B]Hrs:[/B] 17 [B]Mins:[/B] 59 [B]Seconds:[/B] 39

I fell off the wagon!

My sister also lost a considerable amount of weight as she quit (cold turkey). She didn't eat any pre-packaged or canned food & no white bread, pasta, etc. I hate her [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B]5/13/2007 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 7 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 140 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $77.00 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 0 [B]Hrs:[/B] 18 [B]Mins:[/B] 1 [B]Seconds:[/B] 41

off and running

What made you decide to quit the patch early, Princess? I hope it works out for you but I have to say, I've used them several times & it works best when you do the whole program. As long as you're sure you're ready & it isn't the junkie in your head trying to make you vulnerable again. Pulling for you!

Angry

Good point about being mad at the addiction, I always have to remember that, too. Yesterday, I was hooking up my wireles internet & not being technically proficient, it was very frustrating. I was getting realy cranky with my son who was only trying to help. He told me to calm down & stop being cranky or he wouldn't help anymore. I said I was sorry, that back in the smoking days, that was when I would step away & have a smoke to think it through so it was making me anxious. He asked me why I couldn't step away & think it through without having a smoke. It made me realize that there are many ways in which nicotine controls me & I have to always remember that it isn't me or the people around me, it's the junkie in my head making me think & feel & do & say things. I asked the junkie to move in, so now I have to go through the long, difficult process of evicting her.
