It Was A Setback
Posted August 22, 2008 @ 07:45
Last Friday I was all set to quit smoking until...I had a panic attack. Saturday...it happened again. Sunday I lasted until 3 p.m then it happened again. I was starting to wonder where my will power was and what the hell was wrong with me. I told no one I was quitting except super-hubby and all of you. I did not smoke as much as usual but I still smoked and I felt bad. Then I remembered something someone told me a while ago....just don't quit quitting. I said a little prayer before going to sleep Sunday night and wished for the best.
Monday morning I woke up with a wonderful feeling of relief and not one urge to smoke. Since then I've been calm and feel no need, whatsoever, to smoke. I haven't had one panic attack and only had a case of the bitchies last night. But I think that was due to other circumstances. Last time I quit, I was practically eating everything in sight. This time, there's nothing. Thank the Lord because I don't need another pound on this body.
To the right you will notice I've installed a Quit Smoking widget mainly so I can see it and see what I've accomplished but also it will keep you up to date too.
So there was my last week in a nutshell. I do have pics to post of my latest projects I will do it this weekend...promise.
Have a great day everyone. Love ya~
~hugs~

Laurie - I am way proud of myself...I was almost a chain smoker and I swear I was hacking up a lung every morning. I feel so much better already!

David - Thank you..:) It's been hard but I can breath easier (literally)
Lisa - I know I've been down this road before but now it's a good feeling although every once in a while I could grab one and smoke away...UG!
windy - I was just ready. I have a thing about control and I can't control how many cigarettes I smoke so I decided it was time. But sometime I want one so bad...;)

I know that it was very hard for me to quit when I did. The hardest thing I've ever done!
