46 days of no smoking and I'll tell you this week-end was hard. One of my hardest. I am just very happy I don't have any cigarettes laying around because it might have been just to tempting. It seemed like I had heavy cravings all the time for a couple of days....not so bad today so far. I can certainly see why people start again after being smoke free for a month or more. I don't understand it. I thought once I got over the first few weeks I'd be home free!
I am not saying this to be hurtful, but just as an observation to spur you on...
Today, outside a store, I saw three people huddled in the 25 degree weather smoking cigarettes, and I thought to myself that they MUST be mentally defective. Who in their right mind would do that?
Cyn, you are not a smoker anymore. Just having a craving is OK, but acting on it is not OK.

You silly thing... surely you've heard that old saying "hate the sin, love the sinner," haven't you? Of course we love you, Jax, and when you're ready to take that step, we'll be cheering you on just as we do Cyn.
Giving up an addiction is the hardest thing that most of us will ever do. I have been fortunate enough to dodge the nicotine addiction, but I've battled a food addiction all my life. Folks who are strong enough to overcome an addiction have my profound respect, and those who keep on trying even if they don't succeed 100% do as well.
You'll do it, Jaxson, you'll do it when you're ready, when your body tells you (as Cyn's did to her) that it's time. And we'll be here for you when it happens.
Aw thanks MWBW I know ya all love me but not my habit I just couldn't resist the urge to comment to gentlearts.
To be quite honest having cyn posting her journey here has got my old brain truly thinking about giving it another try to quit. I have taken steps; don't smoke at the computer, don't smoke in the car, leaving them home when I go into our small town 3 miles away. But can't seem to leave them be..................yet.
I keep hearing Olivia that was on the Crosby show saying "I know my body".
Hi there, Goodness, I just love nanas foster... Do you have a rec. I could borrow? thanks, Monica
This is how I make mine. Melt about 1/2 stick of butter in skilett. Add 3/4cup of brown sugar, cinnamon, vanilla to taste and about 3TBSP of rum. Once it's all good and bubbling, add sliced bananas and cook for a couple of minutes. You can add nuts if you like, I usually don't. Serve over vanilla ice cream.
Good morning all. Another fairly quiet night. Guess Kats is still away, SKBS busy, Amber working.
Jaxson-I never get on a scale but know it's well over 40. My gown, hopefully will be in next week and then alterations. It's now become a lifestyle and truthfully I don't miss anything as I feel 20 yrs. younger. I let my emotions and depression rule and ruin me for 3 yrs. and hope to never let that happen again. But never say never. My test will be when I go home and there's good East coast food.
