    Congratulations to you motherjoe on 2.5 years, this is no easy feat, it is important that you stay vigilant ant on your toes, that dam demon will sneak up on you like a thief in the night, but you know this already, I was in my 8th year when I let my guard down, it took me 2 years to get back here, I will be 3 months smokefree on August 4, all the best to you, don't forget to reward yourself, blessings to you

    No better words, "be firm with yourself"   it is all about commitment.    2 false starts this summer, and this third attempt seems to be working.   i would love to be able to say i too have been smoke free for 2.5 years.   the hardest is going to be visiting my daughter in Montreal.  As far as i know she is still a dedicated smoker.

    Motherjoe,

    You are motivation to us all! Some of us have been there, while others are working towards it, but you have proven it can be done! This must have been such a nice feeling for you to share. 

    bdmoro, good for you for your multiple attempts. Also, it is great how you are planning ahead. In this case, you are worried about being around another smoker. Does anyone have words of wisdom who have been in this situation before?

    Hi motherjoe,

    A big congratulations to you on 2.5 years!  Way to go!

    I want to thank you for helping me in my journey.  I paid close attention to your posts and your encouragement, and I have now been a non-smoker for 19 months!  Wimporswim has also kept the quit. Great, eh?

    Keep on rocking it, motherjoe!  The freedom is unbelievable!
