Two months not smoking

Just thought I would check in, It's been over two months now and going well, I still get mild cravings from time to time, usually when I'm relaxing or a bit stressed but they are more of an annoyance than anything. I'm also on week sixof Couch to 5 K and loving it. I'm running 3 times a week, feel amazing and have lost 7lbs so far. If I can do this at 54 after smoking since I was a teenager anyone can do it. Stick with it if you are trying it really is the most incredible sense of freedom :-)

Don't give up , go do some swimming instead, you have come too far to let it slide now.
