11 months tomorrow

I'll be cig free 11 months tomorrow and I thought I'd post now as last month I forgot my monthly quit anniversary, lol. Quitting was hard, staying quit is hard. Yes even now I have times I think a cig would be great, but deep down I know that no good can come of having a cig ever again. I want to pass on strength to all those trying to give up this horrible habit, eat, drink water, exercise, snack on junk food, sleep, do whatever it takes and eventually you'll get to where I am and let me assure you it feels pretty dam good. See you all in a month or so as I plan to post on my 1 year anniversary at that time.

All the best to each and everyone of you reading this.

That's great news - I'm on my 7th month - and like you still get the crave/urge but staying true to myself - way too much invested to restart !!

I gather the penthouse is when you reach the 1 year mark?
