ROLL CALL DECEMBER 13

Hello friends,

Well, it's Sunday and you know what means...it's check-in time again.

Please post a short (or long) message and let us know how you're doing and if you're planning a quit date or still keeping your quit going strong.
I'd love to hear from some of you members that never post. The more people we have coming out to tell their stories, you never know who you're going to be helping by sharing what you went through. So everybody...check in!

I am still smoking, still only a few a day, but my eye is on the prize of a New Year's Eve quit. I know this year, I've quit so often, I've probably had your heads spinning and then failed every time. But I'm so motivated to quit and make it work this time.

It would be kind of cool to have others who have decided to quit at the end of this year too. Anybody else planning a quit in the next couple weeks?

Let's hear from everybody, ok?

well, it looks like I'm the first one in here for roll call and it's late. Guess the rest of the group is caught up in the holiday spirit of shopping...better them then me. I'm busy trying to get my house straigthened out and some stuff cleaned out, with bags off to Goodwill sometime this week. Still not smoking..and I believe after 13 months I won't be going back anytime soon. Come on guys this group is about all of us...we need you all to check it...even if you have slipped...we still love you!!

Here! My Sunday was spent out of town, but smoking wasn't part of it.

Okay now I have to bug the ones that are missing: Markiesparkle, ddt1953, GMWolfie, ReginaC,
katsinnj, brnneyes, newbutt, Stellalove. I've listed some of the regulars and some new members who have not checked in. The new ones joined the group and have not done any roll calls..come on guys, we are here to support each other...we are just asking for you to visit this group just once a week, to let us know how things are going.

Here! You know I'm always late -- do the Sunday check-in on Monday! LOL One of my long-standing character defects.

Still quit. 6m 3w 9h,

Y'know, I'm getting a singing voice. My voice is coming back. I'm considering asking a friend, who's a voice coach, to help me so, when my larynx is done healing, I'll be able to sing decently. I started smoking at 14, so I don't know what that would be like?

Keep on truckin' everybody! I tried to quit 10 times, then went a long time when I quit quitting -- I was so tired of trying & failing. By a miracle, this time worked! Lots of support (here & elsewhere), nicotine lozenges and Nicotine Anonymous meetings. One hard afternoon, I even showed up at a softball game I knew my non-smoking friends were attending, plopped my chair down and said, "I'm trying not to smoke today and I need you!" They made room and didn't ask any more questions. It got me thru.

Use any means. Go to any lengths. You'll make it.

Hugs
Marsha

It's been 10 months for me. Woo Woo!!! This is not to say I haven't had the urge. When I do, I take a fake cigarette and twirl it between my fingers until the urge abates.

late, but still plugging along not smoking. For some reason I am getting those nagging voices again, must be stress.
