Re: TGIF CC Roll Call 9-26-08
Good morning Blue and Chick and all who follow.
It is a beautiful fall day here in North Central Florida. Very chilly actually. Fall is my absolutely favorite season when the earth strips herself of all the old to make room for the new in the spring. So I figured it was time to strip myself of at least one bad habit in exchange for a good one. I have 3 cigarettes left... and after those are gone nomore will be bought. I am going to kick the habit cold turkey.
I have been watching my Grandmother that I live with struggle everyday with her COPD and emphasema. She only has 50 % of her lung capacity now at 63 years old. She still smokes and always begs me to quit so I don't end up in the same situation. Yesterday when she went to the doctor's office they told her it was getting much much worse. I promised her I would quit if she would at least try to kick it with me. I went out and get her patches, and decided I would quit on my own. My boyfriend is going on 3 weeks smoke free and he smoked just as much as myself if not more and he did it cold turkey.
Wow this was long today lol. Only 2 cigarettes left now. I'll check in again tomorrow to let everyone know how the first day went.
Chick- How are you doing with your quitting? Are the cravings really bad? Have you felt physically ill? Will you be my "quit smoking" buddy??? =)

Good morning CC'ers
Sugar, good for you quiting smoking! I'm pulling for you hon!
It's a cool crisp morning here in the Great Northwest.
Yesterday was my DH's B-day and I made him a Hershey's chocolate cake. I sustained and had myself a fresh garden tomatoe and mayo sandwich on a home made flaxmeal sandwich roll. Yummo!
Today is 19 days Sweet free for me. It's what keeps me honest with my woe. Because honestly, if I wasn't on a sweetner fast, I would of been nose deep in that cake. LOL.
Headed down the mountain today into the city for groceries. Will be nice to get out for a drive.
Wishing everyone a great Low Carb Friday.
TTYL, Water, water, water!
Love ya, Sherri

Sugar. I'm not doing so hot. I've cut my smoking in half....down from 2 1/2 packs a day to just about 1.....but the QUIT part is still eluding me.....and I gained 5 pounds back
My husband, otoh, is on day 17 (yep, he's still counting ) he's cranky as all get out, but succeeding!
