Janna,
Congratulations on keeping your quit. You sure can't doubt your strength after that test!! And lightheadedness - hah. I can't remember when it actually stopped. But it was better than the dizziness after lighting up for the first time after not smoking for hours and hours; and without the smelly breath or cooking my gums and the lining of my mouth.
Quitting is a little like labor pains. After a while I forgot the discomfort and inconveniences I experienced. Unlike labor pains however, I DO NOT want to repeat my quit!
Stick with your fellow quitters - read a lot, post a lot, vent a lot, laugh a lot, cry when you have to, use your tools, drink tons of water, sleep, exercise, check your stats daily and reward yourself regularly, and love and be kind to yourself. You're doing something very difficult and healing from some pretty nasty toxins. Be very kind.
Stay strong, you're awesome!!
