I can walk for an hour straight. I can walk a flight of stairs and not breath heavy. I can talk to people now and not worry about my breath, or if I stink. I don't have to get up and leave a poker game to have a smoke, wondering if I was missing a winning hand or not while I smoked. I can sleep, no...I mean really sleep. I can get up in the morning and actually feel rested now. I could go have my teeth whitened by the dentist if I wanted. The sky is the limit now Bear. We all can do anything we want.

I can accept a big hug from my kids & non-smoking friends & not worry if I smell like smoke. I can also breathe better & have way more energy for doing fun things. WOOHOO!! We're all freakin' gorgeous!!

Bear, I think you'll have a lot of responses to this thread and a lot of visitors to La Bistro! I don't know what it is about quitting smoking that has made so much possible in my life. Could be that I realized that I can do anything I set my mind to, or that I have so much more time, or more health and energy and adrenalin? I work full time, which I did before, but now...instead of coming home and sitting in front of the television and smoking...I am a tutor and I'm getting my master's degree in multicultural/multilingual education. I'm 58 and I'm planning a new career when I retire from the one I have now. Oh, and I've also competed in a couple of walking races. I do love my life now, where before I just lived in a brown cloud of stinky smoke.

I can plan anything, do anything, meet anyone without having to aorry about the next cigarette. I can find my way around on the computer a lot more since logging on here almost every day. Now can I have a large non-alcoholic something as a reward?
