I just read this whole thread from beginning to end! I am amazed at how far we allhave come. For those of you that are new to the Women's Room and vaping..please read our journey, ups and downs, laughs and a bit of crying in our beer. A few even started the extream exercize thingy! Try that on analogs. One has quit vaping and Analogs..not sure if she has a puff now and again..I would!
You ladies are awesome, I am proud to call those still here and those of you who have moved on..friends!

I did it! One Year!!!!! Thanks girlfriends..I couldn't have made it without you all to talk to everyday. You kept my mind off analogs and on helping others. That's the only way to win at this game!
Now for show off time!
Impcat asked if she could send me something to help with my losing batts in my bra..or out of my bra I should say. This is what I got today for my 1st aniversary!

My grandson took this pic. he was having a hard time catching me not making faces!

As you can see Impcat made a sigle battery holder and a double. I can change them with the clips on the necklace! She is brilliant!

I feel so much better, no coughing, but some sneezing. It seems that my sping allergies are stronger this year..may be due to breathing deeper or because we had such a wet winter that the pollen is more.
I can walk longer and with no problem..no panting..lol.
I vape a lot less now, I don't even start until 8pm. I love the flavors but I get heartburn if I chain vape.
One great side effect is that my skin is much nicer. I am loving this!

Today is my one year mark for quitting analogs...:2cool:

Tim is home from Afghanistan and he smokes analogs, it is the first time I have spent 24/7 around analogs.. It's amazing,, it doesn't trigger anything in me to want an analog... never would of guessed it would be possible to have absolutely no feeling, no craving , no panic to have to have an analog.. I never thought I would ever be free of being addicted to analogs for the rest of my life... And here I am finally free and it's peaceful... ..


Tim tried the e cigs and it's not his cup of tea to use it... , everyday he looks at me not smoking analogs (knowing how bad I was addicted) and just hugs me saying amazing.. Watching all my intense struggles in the past to try to stop an failling every time... Then seeing even smoking in front of me has no affect on me... It inspired him to stop the analogs,, I don't know how he does it, I have seen him in the past just go days without smoking so I have hope since I am not smoking he will just walk away.. It's a individual personal journey for everyone, I have nothing but respect for..

I am on my final week of P90X,,, can't believe 90days have just flown by, it's an awesome program I highly recomend it... will take a short rest break and going to start another P90X round at a higher level . have logged 352 miles walk/run since Dec 09...

enjoy my e cig when I get to it... Big hugs to all the support from everyone so thankful to have yall.. Just wanted to say keep going with your own journeys it's different for everyone but we are all winners for trying...

You did it, Big Congratulations!
You sound so good, keep up the good work. Your P90X has probably been VERY helpful in your quest, I wish I had the knees for it! I would hurt myself. Very best to you and yours, thank Tim for his service and we thank God he's back.
 
A small milestone but one I'm proud of. I have some very interesting issues with my weight (I was at one time SuMO). I was struggling over the winter with sudden unexpected weight gains. I'm finally only 7 pounds away from my goal weight. I credit my switch to this in part. Before I'd have been huffing and puffing through my "exercises" (I belly dance, lol) but now it's easier then it's ever been.

Excellent !!! Belly dancing does sound like it would be fun.... and agree about feeling better quitting analogs and being able to do much better.

finished P90X, today was my last work out.. I wan't in exceptional shape starting, I was decent for having lite activity under my belt for 6 months. End results are 12 lbs, 5% Body fat loss.. no more tella tubby 35 inch waist to 28 , 34 hips to 31... 24% body fat to 19%.. I am were I want to be and just want to keep active now building strength and endurance

I learned that you need muscle to burn body fat and you need to eat enough of the right sources to build muscle... I eat clean, but I don't eat enough.. As funny as it sounds,, think the majority of us don't eat enough...

So for my 2 week body rest break going to focus on the nutritional side.. Getting a Bodybugg arm band to be more aware of my individual needs on a daily bases... Then jumping back in to another round of P90X at the higher level...

quitting analogs doesn't mean you are destine to struggle in your weight...
