I'll be in day 6 of my quit tomorrow and it's my birthday.(woohoo) There's a party planned and there will lots of beer and smoking there... Right now I feel strong, but I have to say that I'm just a little nervous about being "tempted".... I need LOTS of encouragement!!! -Rhonda [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 12/31/2006 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 5 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 161 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $30 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 0 [B]Hrs:[/B] 12 [B]Mins:[/B] 16 [B]Seconds:[/B] 17

Phil, you have been "quit" since August... do you feel strong now and do you feel like all the withdrawals are gone? This is my quit #6... and I get worn down with fighting the withdrawals and that's why I have always started back in the past... just wondering how long I need to prepare for this fight !!

Rhonda, ;) "You did it!!" Nothing like having words of wisdom in the back of your mind when taking a test. Congrats and pats on the back to you. If you made it through this trial...you are well on your way to beat the habit. auntdeb [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 1/1/2007 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 7 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 349 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $34.09 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 1 [B]Hrs:[/B] 0 [B]Mins:[/B] 33 [B]Seconds:[/B] 39

"Happy Birthday", It seems a bit soon to be tempting yourself like this, but...it can also be the time for you to test your inner strength against the odds. Stand firm and say "N.O.P.E." People will probably be placing bets to see if you break...through the course of the night. If you can beat their bets, you may just inspire a few of your friends to "Kick Butt" as well! You might want to lay off the alcohol though, it has a way of "changing our minds"..about a lot of things. Good luck and have a wonderful time auntdeb
