WLS Success-through Powerful Positive Attitudes
Quitting Smoking
As you know I am on chantix and was down to 4 a day, next thing is, things started happening with my daughter (Will tell yall about her sometimes) and I went back up to 8 then a pack day before yesterday. Yesterday I did good, and only smoked 9. Yayy me!
So today I am not having first cigarette for the day, It has been on with my brain lol, I have been up thirty-five minutes and havent lit up. And it is usually first thing I pick up. I have been waiting for certain lengths of time between ciggys to test myself,and get back to four a day without the morning ciggy so it will be easier for me to quit. I have to conquer my mind, and I am trying hard.
So lets all have some yogurt, and excercise ten minutes outside, mosquitoes allowing, oh crap! I cant set up my cloud yet, mom has to move her car first, and she is still sleeping, not getting up til 9 this morning. She only has to work a few hours today. Guess I will ride my little bicycle pedal thingy in the house while I do some reading on OH!
Have a wonderful day yall!

But- I remind myself that these directions from the doctors are NOT intended just to make us miserable- they are to make our adjustments to post-op living less difficult! When I saw that many did not have to do a month of shakes prior to surgery- I did feel like WHY DO I HAVE TO DO THIS? after all I WAS losing my preop requirement quite well without the shakes. But- I'm glad that i stuck with it (except for the weekend prior to surgery- I did eat 2 small meals because I was away- the rest was shakes) I came home from visiting my cousin and started my 3 day prep for surgery. Some folks only have prep the day before.
My point is this task of quitting smoking may be difficult for you - you may wonder at times WHY- but deep down YOU KNOW it is for your best result. and THAT is what we all hope for you...
the best result- without any major complications!
so keep trying- keep doing what you're doing and YOU WILL SUCCEED!!!!
then you can put all the money you saved into a fund to purchase
A NEW WARDROBE!!!! how fun is that????
Wish me luck, and say a prayer for us all. Maybe even a lil fairey dust would help here.
