Smoking

I recently started listening to everyone from my kids, doctor, mother, mother in-law :), and even strangers that took time to inform me of the dangers of smoking.

The loudest voice came from within me from my body giving different signs and signals. I heard my body before with the coughing and flem but choose to ignore the voice telling me to quit. Lately my body started speaking louder and clearer by raising my blood pressure and taking my breath away.

Shoveling snow never took my breath away but now I get winded very very quickly. Maybe age has something to do with it too, but I hear the voices and I took action by seeking help.

I started Chantix on Thursday February 10th and have a quit date of February 18th. Co-workers, 3 of them to be precise stopped smoking using Chantix and recommended it to me to try when I really made up my mind to stop smoking.

I am giving it my all and look forward to not smelling and not feeling so weak for spending lots of money on something that is slowing taking life away from me. I would be very grateful to those that may read this to say a small prayer for me or even just wish me luck. I believe we are all connected and I am sorry for ever starting, but I did and now I could use all the help I can get so Thank You ahead of time.

Until Later
