Thanks Joel,
It sounds so cliche to say "thanks, i couldnt have done it without you",... but ITS TRUE. The daily support i found here and the words of wisdom
that i continued to put into my addicted head, well,...... I have chosen not to smoke for 3 Months 3 Days 7 Hours 8 Minutes 54 Seconds. Cigarettes not
smoked: 2828. Money saved: $636.51. I am free from prison and i will NEVER TAKE ANOTHER PUFF.

Each day nicotine free is a day worth celebrating. Each day free is an important milestone in the life of a recovering addcit. Each day as I witness our fellow beings feeding their addiciton, I remember how it was for me not so long ago. Each day I come to Freedom and see the daily successes I understand more and more why this website and the people associated with it are special. Each day is a celebration of my life without nicotine because I remember how bondage was and feel how freedom is. Each day be proud of how far you have come and know that however far you have to go will be better than feeding your addiction. Each day be proud and walk tall weather you have a color change or not. Each day celebrate your quit.
One Day At A Time, You Can If You Think You Can

Freedom's parades are a great way to celebrate every day lived free of nicotine - no matter where you are in your healing. We're all on the same
journey.
Newbies - strut those stats in today's Monday No Maths Parade! Embrace your quit. Evey day is a milestone - especially in your first few weeks! |

We have lots of people celebrating lots of different milestones, which is really great. As this post talks about though, every one reading here who has not
smoked in the last 24 hours is working at and accomplishing a life-saving feat.
I've had a few people write me over the past few months saying that at times there just seem to be a lot of people posting celebrating the fact that they
have quit smoking and have significant time periods of varying lengths under their belts. I think sometimes the people pointing this out seem to think that
at times there are just too many of these posts on the board. I am not sure if it is really possible to have too many of these posts though.
It is important for people who are just thinking about quitting to see that quitting is possible, and more importantly, that long term success is possible.
There are lots of people who say they know that they can quit for a day or two, or maybe even weeks or months, but who somehow feel that they don't
believe that they can quit for really long term time periods. Our longer term posters show that long term success is really possible.
Also it is important to note that people who write saying they are off for months, a year, or numerous years, are not people who were locked up prisoners
somewhere who faced no smoking temptations, problems or difficult circumstances in the time period that they have been quit. Whenever you see a post from a
person who simply says that they have been off for some lengthy time period, it is safe to assume that these people have faced many little trials and
tribulations of every day life, and that for people who are off really long time periods, they may have even faced some pretty major problems--like job
losses, economic set backs, the illness of loved ones, and maybe even the death of family members, and yet, they still have their quits intact.
So when someone writes that they are celebrating a time period without smoking, try to read into the statement more than it says. These people have not only
quit smoking for that time period--but they have proven to themselves and to others that they have continued to live their lives during that time period,
probably a more healthy, productive and overall more satisfying life because they made and stuck to a personal commitment to never take another puff.

Your healing body recognizes that each day free from nicotine (and 3500+ particles and 500 gases inhaled in every puff) is a milestone!
