SMOKING CIGARETTES - GOT TO GIVE IT UP!!!
BEING A SMOKER FOR OVER 30 YEARS, ONE MIGHT THINK THAT I AM PRO-SMOKING. IN FACT, I AM DEAD AGAINST IT. I WROTE A POEM ONCE ABOUT SMOKING. THE TOPIC WAS BEING DISCUSSED ON A LOCAL RADIO SHOW ONE DAY.…

Forgot one more thing to do. Another IMPORTANT part of this journey. Find a piggy bank, or open a savings account. Put every penny that you would have spent on ciggies in there. You will see this progress as the money grows and you will be even more…
Here is my schedule for quitting.
First and foremost, Make the choice to quit smoking.....AND MEAN IT. That is half your battle.
Second, stock up on your fruits. Whatever fruits you like, eat them. Eat them until you turn into said fruit. LOL. Rea…

Hi Debby - I used to be a smoking cessation counselor. Try getting citrus fruit into your system. That helps stop the nicotine drive. Also get in exercise - that can help as well. Think oranges!!!! Let me know if you need more info. Kathy

GOOD TO HEAR FROM YOU, DEDE. YES, I WILL TRY TO WEAN MYSELF OFF CIGARETTES AGAIN LATER TODAY. I BOUGHT LOTS OF GUM, REGULAR GUM TO CHEW ON. I JUST LOVE PEPPERMINT GUM...THE GOOD TASTE VS. THE BAD TASTE (CIGARETTES). WISH ME LUCK.
I am encouraged to hear that you are walking since exercise is so important to good health. You have taken some positive steps forward:)
Debby.. my friend is on Chantix. She has been on it for one week and today had NO cigarettes. She was a heavy smoker. The craving is gone. I so hope you can kick this dreadful habit. I know you can do it!!

- Hi Debby! I am a 59 yr old married woman that smokes. I've cut down from up to 10 cigarettes a day to one pack per week. I've never been a heavy smoker but to quit completely? Nooo! I like to smoke too much. I will do everything I need to do to talk care of myself....but I will still smoke one or two cigarettes a day. I enjoy it. I have had complete physical work ups and the Dr.'s say they are surprised that I smoke. My secret is: I never learned to or liked to INHALE!!
Signed,
The unhealthy health nut!

- Debby!! DO NOT DESPAIR:) I was on Match for 5 years. I went to a therapist one time and she said.. "You will have to kiss a lot of frogs first". She met her husband on Match.com lol.

- Guys are just as flaky as we are lol.

- HI Debby.. I do know what you mean. This past time I was on Match, I just waited for them to come to me. I stopped emailing any of them and that is how I found Vern. He contacted me:)

- HI Debbie! If you want, I will review the profiles of the guys who contact you:) I have a dating site and dating blog. You might want to read my blog. Have been neglecting it lately. Not posting any new material!
My dating blog is located at Successfuldatingpro.com

Anne Manzo said… - Hey, Debby - I saw your note to Dede about trying Match.com. I've been there, done that, LOL. It's okay. I know a lot of folks who found and married their mate there, but I didn't have any luck. Met a couple of nice men (and a lot of creeps - be very careful out there!), and even met a couple of guys who ended up being (very) distant cousins! It's an experience, for sure.
I'm 54, divorced, smart, reasonably attractive and in good shape, but I have no good place to meet guys either. I work at a college in the Athletics Dept., so am surrounded by young studs who love the idea of an "older woman," LOL, but that, of course, is a big no-no!! The rest of the campus population is pretty much all married (or gay), so no source there. Not really into the bar-hopping scene, so am fairly resigned to the fact that I'll probably live alone - at least until I change jobs, or locations, and can meet some new people.
If you ever need any match.com advice - feel free to chat with me!! Good luck!
Anyway, my point is that I can empathize with you!

- HI Debby!! You really ARE a super DIva!! So sorry you have had such a time with Cancer!! What a brave lady you really are.
There is hope in the dating department:) My boyfriend is absolutely amazing. I am so blessed. He has never show me any red flags that I always had with other guys. He has been constant, caring and true to his work:) I so hope you find someone like him.
