Alana's Journey

Keep up the no vaping!

It's only when you stop you realise the damage you have been doing to yourself.

I regained full lung capacity not long after stopping. I also had a horrendous smokers cough every morning for the whole time I smoke and that vanished within two days. Not sure if vaping causes the morning cough or not. But it shows how much stress the body was under.

I tended to have a bit of a cough later on at the end of the night. I went out to the woods this morning and was walking laps up and down a big hill. I wasn't huffing like I would if I still vaped.

I had an enjoyable weekend. However, I've just felt "off" all afternoon. I can't put my finger on what's wrong. It feels disappointing to feel off despite of having a fun weekend.

[ChrissyRyan]

Future days will be filled with good, and some times not as good.

Enjoy what you get blessed to have.

I had my appointment with my hrt doctor this morning. I had a med student talk to me before my visit, and ask me the standard doctor questions. It looks like my primary doctor will take care of my hrt when this doctor leaves. I had my Estrogen and Testosterone labs. I should've have the results of those tests back later today... I got refills on my hrt prescriptions, too.

The med students can be fun. They have so much desire to learn and some of them are more up to date on the newer standards. My wife is a residency director and gets med students in and out.
I'm glad you're keeping your hrt up.
I'm eager to hear how is the no vaping coming? I have a dip habit I'm going to work on very soon.

What's a dip habit?

I enjoyed talking with the med student. She seemed very excited to be doing it. Quitting vaping has been doing good. At 10p tonight, it'll be two weeks since I quit.

chewing tabacco.

Ha, I thought that was something from the western movies! Yeah, you want to ditch that habit Kellie, it might rot your gums!

It is real. To make it worse, I don't spit. I swallow. I think spitting is nastier. I don't use the big brick od chaw like the movies. I use a finly ground tobacco.

Oh, I had visions of you having a spitoon!

Sorry to dispelled your vision. I think it would be safe to say no one outside of the movies use those. A spit cup or bottle yes. And those are nasty.
I've been dipping off and on since I was 13. It's a harder nicotine habit to quit. You get more nicotine faster with dip. It goes right in to the blood stream

Hey whatever poison floats your boat Kelli. I'm in no place to judge. You don't want to know the long list of stuff I've put in my body!

[davina61]

I would try and stop, you get mouth cancer from that rubbish. Just thinking of you dear xx

[Alana Ashleigh]

I've been pretty quiet here for a few days.  I'm having a hard week, and I'm feeling pretty down.

[ChrissyRyan]

Alana,

Try to cheer up!  Talk a nice, slow walk.  Enjoy nature.  Listen to the birds, see squirrels or rabbits scamper across the ground.  Listen to a meandering brook or creek or a waterfall.
