[QUOTE="hearts and roses, post: 97315, member: 2211"] Congrats to all of you who have made it! I'm so happy for you! I only smoked this way for about 2 years, since difficult child's assault, and was smoke free for almost 18 years prior! And before that I only smoked part time, when out with friends at a club...so I know I can do it. The only reason I chose to take the chantix is because unlike the other times I quit, this time I found it more difficult because I actually enjoyed the break that smoking affords. I am replacing that cigarette break with other types of breaks such as taking the pups for a walk or just lying on the couch for a few moments when I get home from work before delving into the dinner hour. It's different but nice. It's difficult to be around difficult child after she and her friends share a cigarette on the patio, but I remind myself that those are her choices and this is mine and I seem to be okay. I notice I'm chewing less gum and I can freely kiss H when I want to without worrying if I have cigarette breath, which is very nice. When I get the urge to have one I just think of that and how disappointing it would be for H and easy child if I started again (difficult child couldn't care less) and I'm also hoping that my quitting will help give difficult child the incentive to quit as well! momof3 - thanks for sharing your story with us. Have a good one, everyone. [/QUOTE]
