Thanks guys. Got up this morning and I seem to have lost a couple of pounds as well. And having lost my job a couple weeks ago, already I have an interview lined up for Friday.

Thanks again guys. And no, I didn't have a single puff when the job went. And that only just strusk me. Though it has to be said, it's the closest I've come to folding in this quit. I had just forgotten. I was about to go into the shop that night for some other stuff and just KNEW I would buy cigs, so I just didn't go in at all. As to dealing so well with my ex hubby. Hahahahahahah! He HATES me. And I hate that he hates me. It was a full day of worry, tension and stress. And I only held out by knowing I'd be in the gym the next day. WhichI know for sure, releases the tensions for me. s [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 12/10/2006 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 51 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 1,813 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] �306 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 5 [B]Hrs:[/B] 7 [B]Mins:[/B] 56 [B]Seconds:[/B] 18

Had to speak to ex hubby at the weekend. (not something that happens as a rule and a very acrimonious set up). He had done some serious button pushing and I spent several hours on Sunday knowing I was going to have to face him down later that day and feeling my stress levels climb. I HATE confrontation (another thing I generally didn't do but hid behind a smoke instead.) And I did it. smoke free I had the conversation and although I was shaking with strees before during and after, I didn't even THINk about dealing with it via a smoke. Was just very proud that here was one thing I could cope with as this "new" me. Happy girl taking another step on this learning experience.

Nice coping skills! Good luck on the interview and congratulations on reaching 50 days! I was wondering... Since you managed your ex-husband so well, I'd like you arbitrate between me and my ex-husband as well! :8o: We've been divorced for 14 years, I've been remarried for 12, but I don't think he's realized it!

Feels good to know that we can do these difficult things without smoking. It was us doing it all along, we just thought the cigarettes made it easier. I don't believe that anymore. Congratulations on getting through that smoke free and feeling proud of yourself.
