Hello all..
In the past weeks, been reading and I have decided to quit smoking cold turkey.Had my farewell smoke this evening at 5pm and feel determined on being a non smoker.

Along with quitting smoking, am battling on weight. I have time on myself...and doing everything in my power to get in shape and be a non smoker..if/when am successful on smoking free, I am naging one of my sister,who buys and also smoke to follow my lifesytle being smoke free.

We have pledge and roll call every morning, hope to see you there. It has helped me to pledge "no smoking for the day" every morning. And doing rollcall let's everyone know how you are progressing.
(((hugs:))) for support
I admire your willingness to face this head on.
