Well, at the first of the year, I had two things I needed to do. Lose wieght and quit smoking. So I dedicated the first half of the year to losing weight because I figured out that if I changed to a healthier lifestyle, smoking wouldn't fit it anymore and I was right! It has really helped me in my quit!
The second half is dedicated to quiting smoking. Not that I am letting myself go with the weight eather but by now, it is kind of automatic.
Next, I have to tackle caffine addiction.
Then, I think spoiling my children.
Then who knows.
The point is, yes, I do have an addictive personality which I come by honestly because both my parents were alcoholic and smokers. I do really believe in the genetic component to addiction.
I got away without the alcohol addiction because I knew better from the start and never took a drink. I wasn't that smart about the smoking.
Maybe you have relatives who also have this. Don't feel down on yourself, it isn't your fault or anything. Now it's up to you what you want to do about it.
Love,
Mama
