We Quit Cigarettes

[BroodyCluck]

Id rather give birth every day for a week straight than deal with my coming week.

Giving birth is so fun lol. But really it is when you think back on it 37 years later.

So today’s my day. I planned on allowing myself one or two cigarettes today on my quit day, but I’m not so sure. Why drag it out a whole (almost) day and still be back at square 1 tomorrow when I could be on day 2?

I’ve been trying to figure out what I wanted to do for myself and I decided I’d get some geese. NO ONE TOLD ME THEY COST AN ARM AND A LEG!!!! Whattttttttttttt???????

do they ship better or something? How am I supposed to spend HUNDREDS of bucks on two geese and hope they both make it?!? Should I hatch? How hard is it to get eggs? am I going to fall in love with geese? Are they fine without a pond? I feel like I see a ton of barnyard geese with just a bucket to dip their bill.

hope you feel better today @Kiki

I'm pretty sure cottage cheese contains pus though, even though it isn't made directly from pus, as it's a dairy product, and milk contains on average over 1 million pus cells per spoonful.

You make me not want to eat anything my stomach turned reading this

Im getting geese too I think. I'm not sure what kind yet though. I have until March to decide. They're $16 and sexed.

I'm almost like a dog.
I wonder just how good a dog can smell.

Depends on where you sniff that dog!

People make lasagna with cottage cheese!? I thought that was ricotta???

Cottage cheese is poor mans ricotta!

Do NOT beat yourself up. It is an addiction. Removing it 100% SLAM has real side effects.


RIGHT!! Just like the commercial says! Slow turkey not slam dunk.



For real I have smoked for 30 years. I know those cravings very well. I think if you torture yourself it will make it harder.
Maybe counting what you USED to smoke then cut 30-50% out for 3-4 days then another 30-50% off that and repeat. Then the side effects wouldn't hit so hard.

Know this much , I have been off cigs twice. Once for 6 weeks doing well. I decided once when I had a car problem to smoke one. By the next day I was smoking again. Once I quit with my daughter inlaw as soon as she found out she was pregnant. I suffered but wanted to be done with them. She stayed off so did I. After the baby was born she admitted she just had to have a cig 1 time every night. I knew it was wrong but it just sounded so good. She gave me one. It tasted so horrible but nonetheless I had to have it. Next night the same. I felt it make my legs numb and head spin but needed it. A hurricane came about the next day and after it was over we had no lights for a few days. Several people were hanging out, I bummed cigs. Told myself my nerves needed just a few now and then better than I was. I finally just bought a pack when things got normal but promised myself: no cigs till after 12pm noon. After all I used to wake up and light up so, still I'm doing better. I think that lasted 1 day and I was right back on them. My daughter inlaw had already went back too and was hiding it. I think I should have left them alone and never started on the 1 cig . Something .
...because I have no courage to give them up again. A lot of it is mental but it's also physical. I do know once the commitment is made, like any other drug, you cant have just 1. Or it gets u back on them. Only the people who aren't addicted can do that.

Wow! I am so amazed, Kiki and this thread has me looking around for stuff that I can quit!!! I am, however, realizing how addicting this thread is!

See? we trade one addiction, for another!
