A Celebration!

Two years ago today I put down my cigarettes for the last time.

Today, 24 months later, I'm still too heavy, I don't exercise as I should, and I've got an additional diagnosis I didn't have when I started this path...nonetheless, quitting smoking was the single best thing I've ever done in my life.

I won't get philosophical here - that's for Nana Sadie's Place - but if you're struggling with this issue, check out The Q. I owe my quit to their 24-7 online support!

Yay!! congrats on the quitting. We know how difficult it is! Mr. Inky and I quit in Jan 2003 -- paid for most of our wedding with the money we would have spent on smokes :)

Congrats on your anniversary! That was a hard thing to do and you should be really proud of yourself!

You are always such an inspiration!

Congrats on quitting...two years is quite a stretch! I used the webmd online program to loose weight. I was never starving and lost the weight I wanted to very slowly.

Congratulations for having managed to stay smoke-free for so long! I absolutely admire you for that, I'm still struggling like mad to quit smoking, but I seem to lack the discipline so far :( Thank you for the link you shared, I'll make sure to read that page word by word!
Best wishes from Austria!

Well done, congrats on your quitting anniversary. Having quit 16 years ago it is a distant memory, but the one negative thing is that I have struggled with my weight ever since, but at least I am healthy which would not be the case if I still smoked.

Namaste

I honor the place in you,

which is of love, truth, light, and peace.

When you are centered in that place in you,

and I am centered in that place in me,

we are one.
