21 again!!

[RoisinO1]

Today, 21 months ago, in the early hours I stumped out my last cigarette and never looked back - it has been a roller coaster of journey but worth all the blood, sweat and tears to be here today sharing this and so happy to be smoke free - a lot has changed in my life during this time but luckily and thankfully mostly for the better.

For those early on in their quits, you will be here sooner than you think as the time passes by so quickly once you get your first month over you, just take each day as it comes, embrace being smoke free and never let your guard down. Enjoy the good days which soon outweigh the bad days.

My stats for each milestone continue to get better and better as I continue to reap the benefits and recover (last stat is my favorite!)

1 year, 39 weeks, 0 days, 5 hours and 14 mins.

You're grand Hercu , haven't been on much over the weekend myself, serious heatwave here again which is great - busy weekend - spent Saturday painting outside, gardening and tidying up for a family bbq yesterday, really great, enjoyable but sizzling day and evening had by all - can't beat family time, good food and drinks in glorious sunshine

As always, thank you for your kind words

Well done Roisin, you should be so proud of yourself, I really do hope it does get easier as the past few days I have been struggling, really had hoped the worst of it was over

Thank you rose001 I promise, it does / will get easier - you will be 6 months next month and think that is a turning point in our quits, half way to the penthouse and 1 year milestone so the strength and determination will be fierce, you will and can do this
