Smoking = bad!

[amethystrse]

I stopped smoking in December. Around that time I started running. I love running. It's fun and I have a long term goal of one day running a marathon. Right now I can't run a mile yet so it will be a while before I'm able to run 26 miles! lol But it's a goal that I have for maybe another 2 or 3 years at the least (5 years at the most

I am so glad you posted, I thought for a while I was the only one who slipped up...
Like you, I've been "quitted" for a few months now, and only in the past week have I totally slipped up while drinking a bit to much... but its continued to ... well.. happen when not drunk. Don't do it! We have to stop! Running is GREAT! I'm so happy for you, because I know how hard it is. I have a hard enough time simply jogging, but wasn't life better two weeks ago when we weren't suffocating?

And like you, I've slept like crap since I picked it back up - not only do I sleep like crap, I need more crappy sleep to even function. Don't lose hope, you've come far..

Oh I know. The worst is my 9 yr old looked at me and said, "Mommy you were doing so good! You have to quit again!" My kids are a motivator for me. I want to live long enough to see my great grandchildren some day.
