I just wanted to say, I went out with the "ladies" this evening for cocktails..........this is a BIG challange for me. ( the group I went with is all non-smoking, thought the bar we went to is NOT ) Did NOT have a cig.........:)


I have been quit for 1 Week, 2 Days, 15 hours, 23 minutes and 31 seconds (9 days). I have saved $36.14 by not smoking 192 cigarettes. I have saved 16 hours of my life. My Quit Date: 7/15/2008 10:30 AM

They say its ONE encounter and then you are free..........I HOPE so!! :)

" Hi Classy,
1 week + is a great achievement. Don't forget the rewards. You have earned one. I wouldn't go around any smoking for at least 2 months in the early part of my quit. Too tempting for me.
You have passed that test but there still may be major tests ahead of you. Keep close to DS. We care.

" Well done, Classy123. Congratulations.

I don't know about the "one encounter" theory "they" speak of, though. Stay vigilent.

Blessings to you.
