This is why I quit!!!

18 years ago 0 +0 / -0 2631

Hi Butterfly What a great story to share. I'm afraid I was never as fit as you...I used to go to the gym to "clear out my lungs" since smoking seemed to be playing havoc on them. On Saturday, I was at the gym and realized that it had been ages since I had the skungy cough. Now I go to the gym to get fit.

Pam- now that's the kind of reinforcement a person needs. Good work! ;p [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 2/18/2006 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 92 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 3,708 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $828 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 15 [B]Hrs:[/B] 5 [B]Mins:[/B] 37 [B]Seconds:[/B] 21

Hey Pam, What an inspiration you are, determination will take you far. I think it is one of the most important part of our quit other that commitment. You have them both my friend, and that is freedom. Congratulation on your 205 days, and being able to endure the 26 hrs of lifeguard training, that took a lot of courage. My hat is off to you... :) Be blessed, SUNSHINE [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 1/7/2006 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 134 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 2,291 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $469 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 19 [B]Hrs:[/B] 9 [B]Mins:[/B] 23 [B]Seconds:[/B] 12

Hey Butterfly Swimmer, What a good story. I am so glad that you finished your difficult swim and was able to hold your non-smoking head up high!! Like what Breaking Free had to say, a great snapshot of what to look forward to!

[/quote] Cuddles It's better to be a non-smoker with an occasional desire for a cig than a smoker with a constant desire to quit......
