Hey Steelerfan,
Congrats!  So many accomplishments.  That's awesome!!!  

Like you, I quit smoking one month before surgery too.  I recently started having one cigarette after dinner each night.  Then yesterday, I got a call confirming a follow-up appt with my pulmonologist on Monday.  Yikes!  Talk about a wakeup call!!!  So, the cigs are going away starting today.

Keep up the victories.  We're gonna do this!!!

Barbara good luck on quiting again !!!   Oh my gosh I would never be able to just to have one after dinner I would be back to smoking 2 packs a day *sigh*.

I wish sometimes I could just have one and that would be the end of it because I did enjoy smoking even though its a bad habit .

I cant smoke at all because my doc when he does blood work which I never know when it will happen since I'm a ex smoker if he finds nicotine in my system he can stop seeing me as a patient !!! He has done that to two patients that I know of .

He is so strict about it and he told me this the first thing when I went and saw him about the lap band smoke then you dont have me as a doctor .

But I have my days wishing I could have one like yesterday with all the stress that was happening to me .
