Did you see that Oprah where the woman, Nancy, lost 530 pounds?
How? Support on the Internet. Genius.
David, the guy who lost 300 pounds said he did it by changing two habits - night eating and drinking soda.
Two itty-bitty habits. He changed those seemingly small things and bam "I feel like I've been freed from a prison of my own making," he reported.
When you decide to quit smoking you think you'll be changing one little thing. But, you can't because it effects your whole entire life.
Not only does that one little habit touch everything in your life, but when you achieve the goal of say, "Making it one whole day." (Which by the way is not a little goal but a massive goal.) You'll realize that one week is in your reach. Then a month.
Then you'll think, Hey, maybe I'll start going to the gym. You know, now that I can breath again.
And you'll be surprised that you can lose 10 pounds. Then you'll start drinking more water and less beer. You just don't feel like drinking as much anymore.
Maybe you'll start hanging out with your churchy Grandma more, because now you don't smell like shameful cigarettes.
Then one day you realize you're not thinking about smoking every day. You'll feel like you've been freed from a prison of your own making too. You'll wonder how you never realized you had the key the whole time.
You're thinking about what you're going to accomplish next. And now you know you can do anything because you quit smoking.
Be a Quitter!

Keep up the good work about encouraging others to quit smoking.
8 weeks today!!! Who'd a thunk it? Still a mixed bag of emotions, but more surprise and pride than anything. Thanks for all the words of encouragement. Smiles, Susie
I knew you could do it Susie.
