Hi Mud Man,
It is so great to hear from you! Oh my goodness, look at you go! You just keep rocking your quit, it's amazing! I am so happy for you!
This is month 16 for me, can you believe it? I feel so proud of what I have accomplished. And I am ever so grateful for people like you who have supported me while I tried to quit. I still get cravings sometimes, not often, and not powerful, but still. But recently I went through two weeks where it was way harder than usual, with no apparent triggers. The cravings just came out of the blue. And I had to keep telling myself that I was going to remain strong, and I did. But I have to admit, it was a bit hard. Yikes. How could I be at all tempted when I am so happy being a non-smoker? I can take a lot, but when my lungs start to throb with that need, it's like a beacon, and it's hard as hell to resist.
But oh well. I am going to follow your lead. If you can stay strong, so can I.
I am really proud of you, Mud Man. Keep the quit, and post on your special day so we can celebrate! You are an inspiration to me!
