new me
i know the feeling , i felt that way about the patches.
it's kida like being a kid again , you know you can swim but your a little timid about getting rid of the floaties.
but once you let 'em go you realize you can swim all on your own , and that is one heck of an accomplishment !
best of luck , you'll be just fine !

after 4 weeks of "not one puff ever" i have a new mindset...........................
I HATE CIGARETTES !
i really do , i hate 'em.now i'm not sayin' that i'll never be tempted again because we all know we will be tempted.but i hate 'em and i hate everything about 'em.
the cost , the health risks , the smell , the being a slave to the addiction , everything , i hate 'em!
and i love breathing like i did when i was 18 and running around the baseball diamonds !

grin and goofy
i'll have to admit , both of your posts brought a few tears to my eyes.
it's friends like you that have helped me , have advised me , and have motivated me.
things are really easy for me now , but i had a few tough times early on.
i would sometimes do self talk , often pray , and more often remind myself that i did not want to let anyone down here.
so now i'm right at 1 month and feel great.
i'm training for the lance armstrong "live strong" 5k run in austin this october. and when i cross that finish line i'm gonna find my favorite cancer survivor {my sweet bride of 31 years} and i'm gonna give her the biggest hug ever !
you guys are awesome , god bless you !
