I'm such a girl

[bronc]

Day 51, more than halfway to HOF and although it's still a struggle I can see the light. I have the tools now to stay quit, and I know it's my choice as to whether I use them or not. If I fail, it's on me and not for lack of support. Feeling all the love from new quitters and the pros. I am a competitive sort, and know I am winning now. Every time I fight a crave, I win. Every time I post roll, I win. Every time I encourage a new quitter, I win. Every time I read a pro's intro, I win. Every time I interact with the awesome groups on here, I win. Winning all day long and pray for strength to continue this great path I am on.

Great work. I love seeing badass quitters, it is even better seeing badass female quitters. Keep at it and watch as the milestones pile up. You still have some hurdles ahead of you but be tenacious and keep running day to day.

Congrats sister!!! Just want to say thank you for reaching out to me and making me a winner too! Next stop... 100 days and the HOF!!!

Stay right here, keep walking the path, and know you've got a ton of people here to support you one day at a time, every damn day. Keep up the good quit AJK.

Way to go AJK... You are very strong woman... Proud to see you killing it!

Congrats on the half hundo... it keeps getting easier now every day thru HOF... But don't let your gaurd down.. he nic bitch will still pop her head up.. I'm sure you read in Mayhem in just the past few weeks Lip and I have both had bad cravings and we were over 280 days quit at the time!

Proud to see you around every day... stay active girl!

Thank you Shorty! Yes, at first you guys talking about the bad craves at the point you are at freaked me out. Now, it just reminds me that I need to be especially vigilant at all times - especially during "triggers".

It's weird, I have replaced my first morning (before I got out of bed) dip with coming on here. I wake and post before anything else. My crave for nic has been replaced for a crave to get on here and post up. Yesterday morning I was almost frantic, not being able to get on here for a few hours. I felt off until I could finally post. 'Crazy'

Congrats in 50 Amy Jo. Keep winning. Cravings never really go away, they just come less often and less strong. My quit days between 50 and 120 were shitty. I knew I was quit but my mind kept the craves going. A real mental game ahead of you that I know you are more than up for.

Congrats on 50! Keep pushing through; this is one of the best decisions of your life!!!

Congrats on half-a-hundo! You've strung together a helluva quit so far -- keep it up!

Right on AJK! Keep up the good quit!

Thanks Bliss and Doc! Oh man, it feels soooo good!

50 days seems like a long time, but it feels like I was just dipping last week! Need lots more distance from the bitch.

Day 39, bitches!

Still dealing with some minor craves, especially after dinner and before bed. But, they seem to pass quicker than before. My mouth had a disturbance earlier this week, but I think I figured out that it was the cinnamon gum that I was chewing. I picked it up over the weekend because I wanted change and by Monday afternoon my tongue hurt so much! I couldn't eat and was barely able to talk. Anyway, I stopped and almost back to normal now. An ongoing thing has been that food tastes different. Not better and maybe a bit worse..

Also wanted to document my weight, because I was REALLY concerned about the quitting gain. I've been up and down a bit, but as of right now am 4 lbs over what I weighed when I quit. The timing worked out great. because the month of October was challenge month at the yoga studio I go to. 30 classes in 30 days. Well, I did thirty classes in the first 22 days! So on top of being active, I started taking Herbalife supplements and shakes. I am pretty busy, and love the idea of protein meal replacements. It's been working for me over the past week, at least I don't feel like I want to shove food in my face all the time. And I feel great with tons of energy! All without caffeine.

Thanking my group December RANT for the great support, as well as the Mayhem group for making me an honorary member. Not sure what I bring to the table there, but the smell of quit is so strong in there I can taste it. They help me along every damn day.

Also appreciate your comments on here, your PM's and texts. This truly is an amazing community. Proud to be here and quit with you!

nice job AmyJo. 29 days of quit is purely KICK ASS!

I remember back in the day, quitting for a week was unfathomable, let alone a month. I bet your hubs has seen you rocking it and it finally soaked in. You can do it if you want to.

well done!

Thank you Tarpon! 31 days now and starting to see a bit of light. Not craving the minute I get up... Feeling like I might actually be able to do this... Husband still quit and so very thankful. Although he is not on here - he is bad ass too. 'oh yeah'

Mine Quit yesterday evening and he hasn't decided to get on here yet either.. I'm glad they are both quitting though!

We all know you can do this AmyJo. Failure is not an option. That is great that both you and Cindy's hubbies are quit. Now you gals can lay down some quit knowledge to help them along. Keep up the good work.

Agree, this in one of the more impressive things I've seen here in my short time. Lead them down the path ladies. Anoint them in quittitude.

Thanks Doc and Done4. It is pretty amazing if you think about it! Girl power Haha.

My guy made it through the first weekend without. His quit is strong, it appears. If he is having any trouble at all, he is hiding it very well. Hell I know he is having trouble, but refuses to rage or complain. Weird huh?

My family and staff were surprised at how "normal" and "nice" I was when I began my quit. I think the quote I remember is, "your not even a prick when your quitting." I know a lot of my ability to cope was because of this site but I didn't join until I was nearly 30 days quit. I think the main reason was I knew I was really quit and loving the freedom. I could quit hiding my addiction and be open about my quit.
Amy, you've got my digits. If your ol' man wants someone to text or talk to, feel free to share them with him.

Thanks Doc! You rock!
