Hi harley21

I am thinking you working on stopping smoking. Can you chew gum instead of eat or eat celery and other rabbit food? I can't believe this week flew by..I am working on getting caught up decluttering. Have a great week...Starshine

Hi harley21

My hand is okay. Nothing major going on yet. Cat is the only one that sleeps!! But we are due for a heat wave and got some laundry down. I was up till late last night but had taken a nap..My mom use to smoke and stopped. She ate stick pretzels and nibbled. Stopping smoking is hard as I have been around people trying to do it. LOL about the dogs and I can picture you giving the dogs a bath..

How are you ??

Take care ok

Hi Harley21........ I couldn't help but give you an idea for not eating while stopping smoking.  I smoked for 30 years until the doc said stop.  So I did.  But like you said it is extremely hard to do and the feeling for food increases.

What I did was get a huge box of low calorie straight old popsicles.  Every time I wanted a smoke, I would get a popsicle instead.  It would satisfy my craving for food, it lasted as long as a smoke, and it made my mouth cold.  At first I was going through a lot of popsicles but then it started curbing itself and now I am pretty much broke from them.

At first it was hard, because my husband also smokes.  He will die before he stops.  But as time went by, it got easier.  I have not smoked now for 5 months.

Not saying this method will work for everyone, but it does work.

Hi Luellasue

I am sorry about your dog and I know it can be hard. My cat bit the heck out of my hand last night and I have to find out what medicine to give him or find no kill shelter which is hard as they want money to take him or another option as I just can't take being attacked when I am sleeping. I will pray for you and pray for me as I lost my part time job. Need to order food and just a lot of things...Starshine

Keep in touch ok..
