[IMG]http://i213.photobucket.com/albums/cc51/pollyepierce/welcome-3.gif[/IMG] I also found this site with the encouragement of a relative. Even tho it seemed to add some pressure to suceed to my quit I found it most helpful. I could not believe all I was learning after having smoked so long (47 years). You must first decide it is your quit. It is for you and you can do anything you want to. I tryed to monitor my days and compare them to my last smoking days because I was miserable both ways but you know it is just like they will tell you here. It does get better. Addiction is hard to break but it can be done. You can do it for three months I know. I have. Reach out and this bunch will pull you along all you have to do is Not Smoke.

Westend, Welcome to the SSC! You certainly have a great role model. We strongly encourage you to work through the exercises located in your glove compartment prior to your quit date and please don't hesitate to ask questions. We hope to hear from you again soon!

Welcome Westend! We're glad to have you join us on this totally remarkable journey! It is certainly well worth the trip! Minnesota isn't all that far from Saskatchewan where I live, or Alberta where Unhooked lives. (hint hint Aloha) Anyway, this is the best place to be to quit smoking. And, If you're Aloha's brother, we love you already! Read all you can here, it will really help. Do the program and get ready for your new life! It is exciting! You will find lots of friendly help here! :) [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B]3/5/2007 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 214 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 5,350 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $2,257.70 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 26 [B]Hrs:[/B] 3 [B]Mins:[/B] 36 [B]Seconds:[/B] 40

Congratulations for taking the first step...coming to a place where you can learn all about addiction. I know you have your sister to help you, but may I suggest that you start by working the Quit Program Workbook over on the left. I think you will find it very helpful. Good luck!
