Llkoolaid | Wednesday, November 14, 2001 - 05:56 am     Thanks Tess, some of us are coming over there to join you, I think that it is going to be harder for me over there. I am of to a great day, sorry about your little girl, Wargod, my second oldest was like that, just an accident waiting to happen, you get through it and later you will actually laugh at all the things they do. You did prove to yourself that even under stress and there is none worse for a mother than when her child is hurt, that you can cope without a cigarette, you must feel very good about that. Thanks Cheerleaders, I am on my way over to the lose weight thread to cheer them on. Have a good day everyone. |
Dahli | Wednesday, November 14, 2001 - 08:19 am     You guys are doing so awesome, realizing smoking does NOT improve any situation! Just as we know drinking doesn't make things truly better, we are no longer buying the load of crap we've been fed regarding stress and cigarettes Congrats at getting that idea out of your heads that's really powerful!! (I like to picture big tobacco shaking in their boots, realizing we're on to them!) |
Juju2bigdog | Wednesday, November 14, 2001 - 08:45 am     Okay, folks, you might have to carry on without me for a little while. (going on the road for a month) Looks like everybody is doing great. Congratulations, Wargod, for weathering the crisis without reaching for the evil rubber crutch. If you run short of cheerleaders, just go rouse Tess, and she will get things hopping. If you get lucky, she might even bring out the choir. All you gotta do is keep on keeping on, and one day you will be out the other side and wonder how you ever lived so long in that other place. So long for a while my little non-smoking buddies. |
Llkoolaid | Wednesday, November 14, 2001 - 12:35 pm     Have a good, safe trip Juju2bigdog, we are going to miss your support around here. When you get back we will be well on our way to being permanent non-smokers and you will probably find me in the weight thread. I am looking forward to hearing from you again |
Buttercup | Wednesday, November 14, 2001 - 03:55 pm     <Buttercup does a happy dance for all the non-smokers and ends with a tripple toe loop. She's smokin'! Eeeeeekk, I mean non-smokin'!>

Wargod | Wednesday, November 14, 2001 - 03:59 pm     I am too tired today to even think of smoking! Too tired to do the happy dance, also. Other than that I'm doing ok today. Cravings haven't really bothered me today, nor even hanging out with a friend who was smoking. I am doing good though, and made it through yesterday, so I know I can make it through tommorrow too! |
Dilligaf | Wednesday, November 14, 2001 - 05:28 pm     Ok folks, this is it!! I have ONE cigarette left in the house. It's the last one I'm ever going to smoke in my life. I'm going to take Gail's advice and really make it a ceremony. A surrendering of the evil that has had ahold of me for years. I have already given away all my lighters and thrown out my ashtrays. I will have to light this last one from the pilot light on the stove and FLUSH it when I'm done!! Great symbolism, huh?? As of midnight on November 15, 2001, Dilli will be a non-smoker!! Wish me luck!! I'm sure I'll be here everyday looking for encouragement. Glad I have a place to go. Thanks in advance everyone!! |
Gail | Wednesday, November 14, 2001 - 06:07 pm     Good luck Dilli!! I hope the zyban is helping you a lot!!! |
Moondance | Wednesday, November 14, 2001 - 06:16 pm     Congrats Dilli... I am VERY happy for you!!! |
Dilligaf | Wednesday, November 14, 2001 - 07:46 pm     Getting ready for the final smoke. And then I'm going to brush and floss my teeth and make some nice hot peppermint tea. Gail, I have my straws all ready. I found a bag of 500 multi-colored coffee straws at the Dollar Store. Wooohooooo!!! I'll check in tomorrow morning and write a bit before I go to work. I normally smoked 4 cigarettes before work and I would get up an hour early just to have the time to get them in. Tomorrow, I'll sleep that extra hour. Jump right out of bed and get in the shower. No time for dilli-dallying!! I'm ready!! Here I go............. |
Wargod | Wednesday, November 14, 2001 - 07:59 pm     GO DILLI!!!!!! YOU CAN DO IT!!!!!!!!! |

Lancecrossfire | Thursday, November 15, 2001 - 08:27 am     Best of luck Dilli. Hello to all non-smokers. Keep up your great efforts, and stay focused. Way to go Dilli, War, Kool, Franny----and Bat will be on track shortly! |
Dilligaf | Thursday, November 15, 2001 - 09:16 am     12 hours smoke free! I feel great!! I'm leaving for NC for my Thanksgiving holiday at 3:00 today. I'll check in later tonight and let you know how my first day went. If it's as easy as it's been all morning, I'm good to go!! |
Llkoolaid | Thursday, November 15, 2001 - 09:50 am     Go Dilli, I know you can do it. I am not having any problems at all, in the past 4 or 5 days I have hardly thought of a cigarette, when I do get an urge it is slight and passes quickly, you will soon feel the same way Dilli. Just take it one day at a time and you will be surprised how fast they pass. Hope everyone else is having as easy a time as I am right now. Thanks supportors |
