three days of smoke free. well icheated myself once. but i can already smell everything and smoking stinks. can't let the kids down. i go home day after tomorrow. definately no smoking after that.

Good for you, keep up the good work. My neighbor is trying to quit as well. I help him when we are out.  Some people can go it alone, but support certainly helps.

Every year, I give up abstinence for lent. It's a tough job, but someone's gotta do it.

Way to go Paul!!!!  Keep it up.  Take a day at a time (hell, hours if you need to;)).  Keep those kids in mind when tempation peaks out.  Let us know how else we can help.

Seriously, I'm dreading lent this year!  A while back I made a pact to give up meat all together for the upcoming lent.  I may need some support on that when the time comes.  I’m huge carnivore.
Thought I would share that.

I can't imagine giving up meat. I just bought half a cow. I will support you about giving up meat for lent, just don't give it up forever.

Thanks!! :-) I really don't think giving up meat for the long haul will be a issue.   Betsy taste good.  Babe and Arnold taste good.  Bambi taste good.  I really like meat.

If I had been meant to give up meat .... steak houses would have never been invented!

That is a great school of thought!

Yeah, I once wound up on a blind date with a die-hard vegan. I basically used your line Paul.  I almost got murdered (interesting that a vegan who would not kill an animal almost killed me).

[ar3inc]

Vegans just flat out don't make any sense to me.  I love meat, but I understand it may not be for everybody and can respect not eating certain meats.  I don't understand how someone can live without eating any animal product, no cheese, milk, eggs or leather coats.

i had a date with one  and she told me "I don't eat anything with a face." i just looked at her and said "well i do" and took another bite of my steak. (rare of course )

Paul--
How's it going on the smoke-free front?

[PBurke]

it is not. spent 5 days with inlaws during the christmas break. then my dad got put in the hospital day before yesterday. diabetes is a bitch.he seems to be ok but can only count to 18 now. so keep us in your prayers. plan on taking another stab at the smoking and fitness thing in a couple weeks.
