atp,
Ten months ... what an amazing accomplishment!
Thank you for sharing your journey. It's inspiring and you give hope to all of us following the same path.
I'm just past 8 weeks and you have played an important role in my success. So, thank you for your support, atp.
I'm not quite there yet when I see smokers and feel bad for them ... I'm at that stage where I get a little ticked because they can smoke and I can't. And that's okay because I know I'll get there. I agree with you on the smell! I actually believed I was that one smoker who didn't smell. I recently asked my husband if I smelled when I was smoking. He just kind of looked at me, his face frozen ... like I asked him if I looked fat in my jeans! Of course I smelled, and I can smell a smoker now a mile away!
I can agree with you that my life has changed too, and when a bad moment pops up I'm empowered because I know I've got the tools to move through it.
And do you remember the first time I ran up those stairs and could breath? I still smile every time I face a staircase.
Life is soooo sweet on this side, yes?
