Kick Butts day 4

When I took a shower yesterday, that was the last time I worn the patch. So I have basically went a little over 24 hours without wearing a patch. Dispise seeing all the cigarette available at my fingertips, haven't picked one cigarette up. So I guess that's pretty good.
Spend most of my vacation time outside, woodcutting different projects my wife and her best friend design for their seasonal decoration with woods. Which the woodcutting itself is actually a fun hobby I enjoy doing. It what some of us can consider as "therapy." Amazing how clean you can keep your mind when you find that therapy that works the best.
Doing research on the aftermath of quitting smoking, most every result revealed that after 15 years, a former smoker risk of a conorary heart disease is the same as a non-smoker risk is. At that time I'll be 46, my wife will still be 21 years young, and only god knows what the future holds. Research also shows that after 24 hours, my body would have rid of the nicotine in my system altogether. So, just these 2 knowledge can, in my opinion, show us just how it's never really is too late to quit the "cancer stick."

Kicking butts Day 3

I quit smoking July 13, 2017. A few years before that, I was able to quit "cold turkey" for 500 days before picking it back up again. I tend to ask myself everyday why I decided to put that nictine back into my system again. Maybe it was because the people I was around were smoking and I was feeling left out. It could be I didn't really care anymore. There could be so many reasons why I started back up again. Couldn't really blame anyone specifically, that would've just been childish.
In any case, it's truly a great feeling when we let go of things we've held onto so tightly thinking we need them. When in the end, they're really just worthless. Many people have reason they smoke, I truly don't. It just a waste of my time and energy. Those who do quit, stated they want to be healthy. Others, want to save money. For me, I just wanna quit. Period.
In my opinion, you really shouldn't need any real reason to quit. Other than just to quit. Whatever other's reasons are to quit, I'm just glad I did. I'm using Equate brand nicotine patch (paid for by my company. The starter package anyways), and so far they're helpful. Except when I had a few drinks. This battle shall be won in the end nevertheless. May y'all have a blessing day.
