To each and every one of you! I couldn't have done this without my SSC family. I look up to all of you, not only because i seem to be the youngest person here.. No offense intended! But because a lot of you have been quit for a VERY long time and it gives me hope that i can stay quit. I did this mainly for my children. I don't want them to have to grow up with a mother that chooses something that can potentially kill her over them. My health is soooo much better too! Got on the scale today, only to see that i've lost another 10 pounds. I have to buy new clothes now because nothing fits anymore! And i said in my blog, that my sister decided to quit smoking because she saw how successful i was at quitting. She has also decided to quit drinking. She was never really a heavy drinker but she doesn't want that to be a part of her life. I owe all my good fortune to each and every one of you. You're made it possible for me to make the greatest life changing decision.... I actually found this website while looking for "benefits of quitting smoking".. Took me a few days of going back and forth between different sites to realize this was actually a place where real people came and discussed their smoking and other means of getting nicotine.. I honestly thought before i came to this website that quitting was something i wasn't going to be able to do. Then i posted my first post in the "introduce yourself" forum, and withing 10 minutes i had a response. It feels good to be noticed when you're going through something this challenging. Thank you again and I love you all so very much!
