You are fantastic Haley! Keep up the good work. This support groups sounds like a good thing. It makes it fun. WW is like that. You get prizes, and other people are doing the same thing.
The coughing and so on is very common when you stop smoking. My Dad had bronchitis after he stopped! I didn't have too much of a reaction like that. Hopefully, yours wont last long., I bet Micah is having fun. It is so important for them to learn and do things, rather than just sit in front of a TV. Has he made you a picture yet to be hung on the fridge?

Thanks Judy, i'm hanging in there, its such a crappy day outside, raining all day so far, bringing me down.....
But they say you'll get worse before you get better, its just my chest feels like an ashtray, but again i did smoke two plus packs a day.. were allowed to smoke at work.. so i puffed all day long.. home was harder cause i went outside or down in the basement, cause of Micah... but i just reward myself everyday with a nice long bubble bath... and think about how nice i smell... been bleching my teeth too there finally getting whiter

Be careful with the bleach. Jessie did it too many times and now her teeth are sensitive to hot and cold.

i don't think it matters with me Judy, my teeth were always sensitive i have to brush them in hot water, the cold water kills me, and my gum line is so messed up from smoking, my dentist told me years ago to stop, but i chose not to listen.. so there already screwed up from me! bleching them is just making them look better.. i have another dentist apt thursday again!!!!! oh boy!!

Sorry I haven't been here much....Haley, I'm so proud of you. What you are doing by quitting the smokes is one of the best ways to love yourself and show your family how much you love them. It will get easier...
