   Wow these days sure add up. 80 days smokefree.  I feel alot better. I'm breathing better and can suck in a deep breath without coughing. I still have vivid dreams now and then but my sleep is more solid. I learned other ways to relax and handle stress. Nope, nope, nope. Not even one puff. We can do this.

   The way I can handle some stress is I take in a deep breath and count to 10. It really works. Afterwards I have herbal tea. Or even meditate.  I use self talk and say it isn't that bad I can do this.  In think self talk is important we need to retrain ourselves. We got use to something that isn't there anymore.  We can do this. Nope nope nope. Not one puff ever.

   Hi cindydavis,
   
   You go, girl!  All your hard work paid off, and now you are reaping the benefits of being smoke free.  Like you said, you are breathing easier and without coughing.  That's wonderful.  And aren't you starting to realize how much time you wasted smoking?  You gain back a lot of time to do other things, which is great.
   
   You should be really proud of yourself, cindy.  Keep going, and enjoy the freedom!

   Tomorrow Im going to be 80 days smoke free too... we're actually doing this. While it takes time to get there the days and weeks have actually flown by. I'm so proud of myself for sticking with it this time round.
