Welcome back Kristi! My condolences. I have to agree that there is one more angel looking down over you now. As for coming back, you know what works, you know what doesn't work. Go back through "my program" so you are 110% prepared for this quit. Take it one day at a time, keep telling yourself N.O.P.E. You know we are all here for you, and we are all rooting for your success!

Hey Kristi!!!

Welcome back!!! You made it just in time to join some of the greatest quitters on the site... the March Mellows!!! You are in great company, as this year's group has started out strong and are really kicking ash!!!

You know the routine, for the most part... maybe you could brush up on some of the strategies in the program and review some posts that you have missed to ensure your preparation is completed!

One final thing... post and wait for the 5 replies if that biggie crave hits this time!!! That may be just what you need this time to defeat the nico-demon for good! We'll be here to help!!! YOU CAN DO THIS.... N. O. P. E. !!!!

Hi Kristilu, We can do this together, okay. So glad to see you. I just quit a few days ago and need all the help I can get from former members and new one. Don't mean to take over your post, sorry. It is so good to see you back and I am so very sorry to hear about your Dad. You take care and you know what do, right. Yes, I thought so. ((HUGS))

Keep the Quit

Hello Kristilu,

Welcome back to our wonderful support community........it's great to have you return.

Our deepest sympathies for the loss of your father. He certainly would be very proud to see the changes you are making for the better.

Please take the time to review the program again and all your strategies in order to help you along your quit. Stay close and keep us posted.

A lot has happened since I was last here. I lost my dad Feb 1st and feel as if I have matured quite a bit since losing him. I don't know why, maybe knowing he is up there watching me and I want to make sure he is proud when he sees how I'm living my life. So, I have straightened up some other areas in my life that were unorganized and now I'm hitting the "biggie". I am cautiously excited, as it is now 2:17 and I have not smoked today. I bought a new batch of patches and I am going to follow the step down program to a T. I will be 35 in August and have promised myself that I would quit before I turned 35. I have a new approach this time. My mind is clear and set on what has to be done and needs to be done. And I know that I will feel better every day just knowing that I am accomplishing my goal one minute at a time. I know it will not be easy, but nothing worth having is.

Thanks for letting me in on your wonderful support!

Kristi
