It’s been a while since posting. This is only because I do not have any urges, I am over this horrible habbit and I will leave this blog up for others to hopefully discover that it is possible, and it’s not *that* hard to do. Yes it was very difficult at first, but I can now say that it has been almost 5 months since I quit and I feel much healthier. I watch others leaving offcies and functions to grab a smoke and remember what it was like. It’s a lot of time watsed. Additionally, I can;t stand the smell of someone after they have smoked. I am once again a non-smoker….and it feels fantastic!

Stopped Counting The Days, But It’s Not Easy!

With poor internet access and a temperamental memory card reader, I can’t add a video today, but will update the video entries soon! Thanks to Jane Elliot from the BBC in the UK for taking an interest in my story. You can read it here. I really hope that I can motivate others as I continue to motivate myself in my quest to a healthier life!

It feels so good to be a non-smoker! I just spent the last 2 1/2 weeks in Indonesia, where I first started heavily smoking, and I have to admit that I was a little nervous that I’d have the urge here. But the chain smokers surrounding me not only didn’t phase me, but in fact I was happy to stay clear of the nasty smoke they were emitting. I found myself preaching the benefits of kicking the habit, only to remember how easy it is to preach and not easy to do. But I act as an example that it is possible, and I can attest to the benefits. I hope that my friends and colleagues can follow suit, that they too are stronger than this!

More to follow soon…
