Quit today on 9/11


17 years ago 0 2631 logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo 0
Hi Jan Feeling good today! It's 7:30 now but I've been awake since 6. This quitting thing is changing my whole system around (I have NEVER been a morning person but I have already been up, done birthday cards, laundry, made o.j. and coffee) Heck - next thing you know, I'll be one of those morning joggers! Anyway - my day is starting off well. Hope yours is too!

Hi Jan I just wanted to talk to someone who is at the same stage as I am. I quit on Sept 11th too. I didn't think about the significance of the date until I came home from work that day. I haven't tried to quit for 17 years but last week, I decided it was time. I quit for 4 days and started again on Saturday. I decided to try again on Monday. The first 2 days were okay but I am having a terrible day today. I swear, if there was a cigarette in this house right now I would smoke it! Hope your quit is going well! Good luck!

I quit on 9/11/06 too. I found this forum way before my quit date and the helpful suggestions that I read help make my journey into the smoke free world easier.

I'm doing OK, and I really love seeing 1 full day of not smoking on my quit meter! [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 9/11/2006 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 1 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 50 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $9 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 0 [B]Hrs:[/B] 4 [B]Mins:[/B] 22 [B]Seconds:[/B] 2

Windy I hear you loud and clear. I went to bed at 8pm last night just so I could forget about smoking. The past 24 hours have been tough, but I will persevere, even if I have to sleep the day away! One thing I know is that I don't want to have to go through "hell week" again, I've been there too many times. So Windy, I hope you're feeling better and remember to take it one small step at a time.

I just wanted to say that I chose today as my quit date because I am very grateful to have the opportunity to quit smoking - the victims of 9/11 did not. It puts things in perspective. My heart goes out to all the families who lost loved ones.

Thanks Marie. I have lots of water, sugarfree candies etc. I really like the straw idea, I think I'll give that a try. Anything to keep the quit going strong.
