Nonetheless, having made a public commitment (even to strangers) makes a difference. It reveals the gap between my ideals/promises/goals and my reality, where I can find a hundred rationalizations for not living up to those ideals.

So I’m going to try again during the coming 28 days — although I obviously haven’t gotten to Yoda’s point – there is no TRY, only DO!

I also console myself that it typically takes a smoker several attempts before it “takes.”

Good luck to all.

Dan

So, one week in I have been successful on two fronts. 1) I overdue the butter and toast - so I have given up butter for the 28 days. 2) I drink too much coffee - yes, I know we all have different ideas of what too much is ... my wife says any coffee is too much! - so my commitment is 2 coffees a day, one I make one I buy (helps the wallet too!

If it’s not too late, I want in!
I have a terrible habit that I thought I broke…
As it turns out, I only bent it.
I doubt and underestimate myself constantly.
This deep rooted problem tends to
sabotage my efforts and achievements!
But I am clever and no one knows
… so I seem calm, cool, and levelheaded but beneath the surface…
not so much.

So beginning today (5/28/08), I will conscientiously, dash away those judgmental, negative voices and replace them with thoughts of encouragement!

My outstanding issue is binge eating - not often anymore but it really sticks out in the sea of otherwise healthy eating. I know my triggers and have been experimenting with techniques to stop. So for the next 28 days from today (May 28), I will not binge eat.<br/>Thanks everyone<br/>L. Hi Craig and everyone,

I quit smoking 17 years ago and I can tell you that those triggers come and they are hard to get through, but you can get through them and you will feel great for doing so. When that urge to smoke comes, remind yourself of the bigger prize - your health!<br/>Leeza Emma,
