I Quit : Two Weeks In

Ok, so its been two weeks and I'm still smoke free! I can't believe after smoking for over 15 years I am now a non smoker! I am still using the electronic cigarettes, but that's ok! They do have a small amount of nicotine, but do not have tobacco, tar, or any other harmful chemicals that are found in cigarettes. I have to say I am proud of myself and Ty! Here is what I've noticed so far...

1) Food tastes different!
2) I can breathe better!
3) I have more time ( I had no idea how much time I was wasting by going outside to smoke)
4) I am saving more money.
5) I don't cough as much.
6) I don't smell like smoke. 7) Since I don't smell like smoke and I can breathe and smell again I noticed that cigarette smoke doesn't smell all that great! It actually smells pretty bad.
8) My kids are super happy for me and my mom is proud!

Just wanted to give you guys the update! I hope everyone is having a fantastic day!

    Congratulations on your milestone! Woo hoo!!! This is an awesome thing for you to do for yourself and your family. I lost my dad, too soon, due to the damage that smoking did to his heart. You rock!

    :D That's awesome! That's a really serious accomplishment. I have so many friends that have tried quitting over and over. Once you get the momentum, don't let go!!

    Well done! I've been smoke free since giving up in August 2010 & I've never looked back. Give it a few months and you'll wonder why you ever smoked in the first place x :-)
