Three Months Today

I think at whyquit.com I turn into a bronze statue or something! It is Three Months Today!Cannot be thankful enough that I made it this far and I am never looking back or going back. I have trouble believing that just three months ago I smoked 30 cigarettes a day. I guess smoking must be a type of insanity because today I cannot find one redeeming quality. This Board has been fun and has kept me thinking of the goal and the reasons I have for not smoking. I have to honestly say that while I am here is the only time I think about smoking, but then it is in a reinforcing, not craving way. I do not have cravings much anymore these days....a random one now and then.I am especially thankful that the Lord helped guide me through this quit at this particular time. I have just been diagnosed with a painful,quit smoking, chonic illness and smoking sure would not have made it any better. I am glad that I can have hope that with a good, healthy, natural diet, exercise, physical therapy and proper sleep, I may be able to lead a normal life. I am just starting to learn what healthy eating really is, but I know one thing is for sure: Since I will not be able to eat any foods with any additives, can you imagine how sick I would get if I kept on smoking!!! There would be no point in even trying to eat healthy! Just one smoke and I would undo all the good of everything else!And I thank all of you who are praying for me and I thank you with all of my heart.So,stop smoking, onward we go, healthier every day, and never taking another puff!Love,Julie
