We Quit Cigarettes

[webbysmeme]

Thank you @sourland !! I hope you have a wonderful day as well.

I seem to be able to breathe slightly better today than I could a few days ago. My sense of smell is not all the way back yet, but I am hoping it will return soon. Cravings yesterday and this morning greatly diminished.

@webbysmeme , don't cave in now!! I hope you didn't sneak a shot or three out of a bottle, I know how bad that temptation is. It is certainly important to get the booze out of your house ASAP, though. I think if you do more explaining, in smaller words, your husband will do his best by you. His best may not be what you want, but there WILL be improvement in the situation!

@Kiki , keep it up, you got this!!! Almost a month now, your progress is incredible.

To everyone else reducing or quitting, keep moving forward. Think of all the money you are saving by not smoking! The health benefits are enormous too. How is @jolenesdad doing, have not heard from him in a few days??

Guess I need to see if Amazon has it! I will. Today. Thank you everyone for your concern. I'v been reading old post. I just found out it's been damn near a month‼‼‼ I'm so happy I'm crying! And I just poured the ALL DOWN THE SINK‼‼‼

THAT is such a relief! I'm all tearing up. THANK YOU for doing that. I know it must have been hard--so expensive and all, but it is just SO dangerous for you to have that around, calling to you.

Yeah, all true.

I bet our guys don't agree They are not bad like most men.

Gotta wonder what is really going on there.
Pretty hard to ascertain enough to advise.
Codependency is a huge issue in any alcoholic situation,
whether the other people are drinking/using or not.

He does drink like a fish! And yes there is codependency here. At least I realize that. I don't think he does. But I am going to talk to him soon.

I dare you to put a spoonful of turmeric powder in your mouth.
It tastes horrible. I was sprinkling it on my salad but I figured I'd get it over with in one quick bite then enough the salad.

No way! That stuff is nasty plain. I have a old Indian recipe for a hot milk drink. It's very good, and very healthy.

You are one tough lady! ...I've been reading all the pages I missed when you found me. We are missing a lot of people! Do we need to pm them to see how they are? It might get that back! If so, you need to do it. I made a list while I was reading.

Here's what I have:
