Well, its been about 60 hours. Most of you knew, and maybe some of you didnt, that I was a smoker. But the key word here is was because that part of me is now history! It started a few years back as a night-time thing, something to accompany the 1 or 2 cocktails Id have. But it soon turned into a daytime habit as well. And I wasnt your typical wear-it-proud smoker. I hated the smell. I hated how trashy it must have looked in situations where it wasnt as accepted. I have probably kept chewing gum and hand sanitizer companies in business based on my purchases alone the last few years, just to mask it a little more than usual. And Id had numerous people tell me they couldnt believe I smoked since I didnt have the typical signs (yellowing teeth and nails, bad breath, stinky clothes, shortness of breath, etc.). But I knew I had to quit before too much time went by and I was in the early stages of emphysema or something worse. But Im not good at doing this stuff alone. So thank God for friends who were willing to do it with me. And there you have it, Im over 60 hours in and I feel pretty good. A bit agitated at times, and kind of in a groggy funk (that will hopefully pass soon) but committed and proud. :)
