Day 47: Tasty
When I was thinking about quitting cigarettes for good, a lot of people told me my taste buds would change.
Well, I hadn’t noticed anything until a couple of weeks ago after I spent nearly 30 minutes preparing an ultimate salad with all my favorite toppings. When I took that first bite, anticipating all of its delicious splendor, I realized it was horrible. At least to me.
I had almost hoped everything would taste even better, but I guess everyone’s experience is different.
I say this as my cough is subsided and now I just don’t have an appetite for anything. Surely, this must be a cold. Or maybe I just can’t comprehend the idea that doing something to make your body healthy will make you annoyingly sick first.

Wow, weird, I opened reflector.com which I never do because I don’t care about Greenville happenings, but I wanted to get some more info about the latest crackhead shooter in your wonderful little town and I see this blog about quitting the gaspers, which I myself am in day five of doing. Don’t know what this little bird’s primary motive for quitting is and don’t care but mine is a desire to optimize my physical strength for the purpose of hurting people, particularly ghetto thug gangsta wannabes who need to have their necks snapped. G’day.

Hello Kristin Quiting smoking might be the best thing you have ever done. Let me tell you, It will only take smoking one to get you back in the habit! Don’t even think about. I have been quit for over 21 years after smoking for over 30 years. I quit cold turkey. A person can only quit that way after first getting their Head “RIGHT”. It is not any need to even start quitting untill you do get your head right. I am proud of you and will be even more prould if you keey it up. Good luck!
