deaddemmama 474 Posted September 24, 2013 We can do this! If we can change our eating habits, we can quit smoking. Not worth an ulcer....trying to do a bowel prep right now before a colonoscopy.....bleeding very badly...nothing is worth this! I refuse to listen to the addiction that tells me, " one more is ok,". That's how I got fat! It never stops at one more, and the sooner I come out of denial and believe this, the sooner I can get well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BKR 13 Posted September 24, 2013 Congrats to all of you. I was a smoker for 17 years. Have been a non smoker for 9 months and 24 days. The blue e-cig was very helpful pre-op. My husband still smokes (trying to quite). So will power is needed! The urges do decrease and it does get better!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am so greatfull for all the support glad yoi started this thread I suggest you watch a movie and have nice bath after. When you smell all good and your hair is fresh you are less likely to smoke... At least that was my tactics. Don't give in! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
