When that little voice starts talking to me ... I just want to knock it over the head with a baseball bat. I swear if I could see the critter I WOULD! I can't wait for that voice to get quieter and quieter ... but the only way it will is if you keep saying NO! Keep on keeping your quit Penquin ... you can do it!

[quote] From Penguin: Still holding on. Nothing like having your words thrown back at you to make you think about fighting a little harder. I needed that.[/quote] No kiddin on that, eh? I've said that several times now. Oh, by the way, are we allowed to punch someone while giving them a hug and saying 'Thanks'?

Hiya P!! First things first... deep breaths! Just take a moment to relax as best you can. This is that demon fighting for you. He realizes that he has been loosing control, and now he is fighting back. [b] Who is in control of you? Yourself, or the nicotine?[/b] It's a fight for your body. For me, I say damn right you don't give in. He whispers all that crap to you, crap that you KNOW deep down inside is all [b]lies[/b]. We are all here for you P, take our hands!

Ready to hold on to you for dear life at those times that you maybe just need a little extra grip. :) Hang tight hon - we've got ya!

Hi Penguin, Mr Ed the Talking Horse here. Now we animals have got to stick together and I've reserved a place on the beach for you. I've finally arrived here and believe me, it's worth it! This comes from somebody who said until 4 months ago that they would NEVER quit. yes it's a hard journey, but stick with it, and gradually you'll see the benefits. Only dumb humans smoke - not Horses or Birds Just say neigh Mr Ed ;p [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 2/13/2006 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 101 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 3,046 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] �757.5 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 16 [B]Hrs:[/B] 22 [B]Mins:[/B] 25 [B]Seconds:[/B] 8
