Funny, that's one thing I've never put in the stores. Perhaps I was subconciously waiting to stop.:)
It's good to see so many doing something in our own way!:)
I got outside and worked in the yard instead of watching T.V. I drank water instead of Pepsi or Beer. I have also changed jobs, instead of sitting in an office or sitting in my vehicle driving around I now have a more physical job that keeps me moving. I am obviously sore and tired after work but it helps me sleep at night better. I actually feel great now. Plus the new job pays better too. :)
Winnie, if you switch to Green Tea you can have all you want. (no sugar of course)
2D, what kinda bike are you riding?
I asked the same question in a pm,, he showed me this,Quote:

i do miss my tomato soup, spiced up and with saltine crackers. but Waaaaaay too much salt. Oh well, i'm finding other spices.
today makes 2 weeks since my last cigarette. We've (me and my wife) also been doing a lot more of the organic foods and trying to cut down on the chemicals that get put into our bodies. The quitting smoking kinda sucks at first... then the cravings fade... but then both of us wound up with what they call "quitters flu" which basically feels like you have the flu with no fever involved. But, I'm looking forward to being able to do more walking, hiking, bike riding, without having to stop because I'm out of breath or because I need a smoke. Good luck to the others who are attempting to quit or plan on it... it's hell for the first couple days... but the cravings get a lot more manageable around day 3.
Oh good! I'm on day 2, and haven't been too bad thus far. I'll keep vigilant for quitters flu. Thanks Scooby! Just the impetus I needed!
Well done Scoobywan and Winnie.
Me and the little one have been going to a small country church....seems to be doing us both some good!
You know CS, that's food for thought.Quote:

I thought about it, I just don't know how to focus.
Your spirituality is a very personal thing and I am not one to hang a name on it such as Baptist...however, what works for me is a small country church. Especially if it means I get to sing and hear my little one lift up her voice! The bible states and I am not quoting... but here goes..wherever we should gather together...one and another he (my god) will be in our presense. If your in the right place you'll know it. Bee if I could invite you to come I would. I know it'd be a long way to travel...my suggestion to you...drive way out in the sticks and pick one and try it. Yeah I have been one to keep my spirituality something between me and my God and not frequent a gathering in his name. I am realizing though how important it is my child learns to walk with him. Again this is just me personally and I don't condemn anyone elses way of thinking.Quote:

So I've got through 5 apples 1/2 tin sweets and 3 chocolate muffins and it's only 6.20pm! I'm going to soak in the bath and relax a bit, before I'm sick!
Hang in there, Winnie! You're at the worst part, now. It will start getting easier, soon. (Not easy....but easier.)Quote:

The bath has helped a lot. Thanks for the encouragement, it means a great deal to know you've got folk propping you up when all you want to do is fall off the wagon.
