Hi Lolly, Great to hear from you. I once wrote that you were the backbone of the SSC. When I began my quit, you were always here, ready and willing to help. What a tremendous positive influence you've been to so many of us. Congratulations for a wonderful 500 day quit! Hope life and France are treating you well.

Hello Lolly! You were one of my mentors also and I remember calling you the Queen of SSC at one point. I looked at my numbers this morning and thought "Hmmm, almost 500 days" and then here you are. Stay in touch sometimes and give my best to France!

Thanks so much everyone for the really kind wishes. It's kind of nice to be back....feels like coming home!!! I've only been away due to being exhausted with all our home improvements.....tiling a kitchen, creating a garden and building decking! France is still great and now discussing whether to become 'smoke-free in all public areas!' I'm so glad that some of the newer quitters have read too......it is soooo important to see that it CAN be done. It was not easy, Oh! No! but so doable and so worth it! Love to all....Lolly. :) [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 11/25/2004 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 501 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 17,557 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] �2505 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 69 [B]Hrs:[/B] 19 [B]Mins:[/B] 2 [B]Seconds:[/B] 21

:) Oh! My! It�s 500days!!! It�s so hard to believe after 40 years of heavy smoking! I�ve been not been posting on site, on a regular basis, for quite a while now. I read now and again and occasionally post a �Congratulations� to one of my friends from way back when!!! A few days ago, I realized that I was approaching 500 days quit! Wow! That amazed me! It seems such a huge number, but there are so many more people on site with many more days, and most of them helped me to get here!!!! I just want to say �Hi� to all the Mods and to all the folk who remember me....I will be grateful forever for your gift of life. Now I can say, �Last year at this time I was 4 months quit.....I remember how hard it was!� I do not really know how I made it through....well yes I do...it was attitude and this site....Stay Positive, and if you can�t make it, fake it!!!! I�ve been reading a few new quitters� posts. One of the things which fascinates new quitters (and not so new,) is why older quitters keep posting on site or keep in touch with SSC. Do we need the site to keep us smoke-free? Not really! Do we want to help new quitters? Yes, usually! Do we still get smoking thoughts? If we are honest, yes we do, but we can laugh them off after such a long time! Does it REALLY get better? It most certainly does!!!! It is sooooooo worth all the effort! Please hang in there. What motivates us to keep visiting the site? Often it is just the realization that our lives were saved by the site and the wonderful people here! Right throughout your first year of quitting, you will be faced with challenges, some of which sneak up on you unexpectedly. Take a huge breath, try to remember that first Hell Week, and fight off the Nicodemon! The second year is sooo much easier. They say it takes 2 years for weight and all the other things to fall into line after a quit. I�m certainly finding it so much easier now, but I remember those first days as if they were yesterday. Would I want to repeat them....NEVER! My Mantra was always....NEVER LOOK BACK, THE FUTURE IS AHEAD!!!!! Well I�m now in that future and it is fantastic! I look back only to remind myself how great it is to be FREE!!!! Hang in there people!!! You can do it!
