Hi Everyone,
Today is my birthday, so I thought I would share my stats with you.
Days Quit: 1 year, 4 months, 14 days
Cigarettes not smoked: 12,507
Days of Life Regained 125
Hours not spent smoking 1,042
I had lunch with someone last week, and she was astonished that I have kept my quit. It made me feel so proud. Quitting smoking wasn't easy, but it was worth it. My chest feels lighter. I am breathing easier. My voice is stronger, because I am no longer struggling to get a breath. I smell better. I can speak to people without worrying about my smoke breath. I have a lot more spare time that I used to waste on smoking. And I no longer fixate on when and how I can get my next smoke. I am free.
I want to thank all of my friends here who have helped me in my journey to quit smoking. A special thank you to my personal quit buddy, wimporswim, who helped me get through the really tough times, and who is sharing the joys of being a non-smoker.
Now that I am a non-smoker, I can look forward to many more birthdays to come! Keep the quit!
