I'm not sure what this post was about diaries..but I'm not interested in anything like that..I was here for the message boards..so does this mean no more message boards?  I'm so confused, guess I will go thru the new site and figure out what is going on..I can't see where there are any new posts...so I guess this deal has run it's course..it was great to meet all of you and maybe something will be regenerated this season on smoking..I'll be watching..love to all, Ann 

We had diaries on our old site but they've been unavailable for the past month due to a redesign. This post was just to let folks that do keep a diary (or would like to start one) on this website to know that they were available so they can continue writing in their diaries. 

  

This is just another feature we offer besides message boards, I posted that announcement on all of our busier boards (boards with more than 100 messages) just to let folks know they were back. 

  

Feel free to visit them if you like, we have diaries that members share that are available for everyone to read.

Staff, thanks for clearing that up for me..I'm sure I will get used to the new board, etc..this board was a lifesaver for me when I quit smoking in February..hope we come back stronger than ever with the new season.  Thanks again, Ann

checking in

hello everyone..I haven't checked in in a few days..hope everyone is okay..I can't tell if there's been any new posts, cause I'm still figuring the new site out..but wanted you all to know I'm okay..not doing too well in the smoking area..but there is still hope..this is the roughest thing I've ever fought..the nicodemon is so powerful..I just keep praying for the compulsion to smoke to be removed and hope you will all pray for me too..Ann

 it takes time! and believe me it is doable! i used to smoke more than i actually put food in my mouth.
gained a pile of weight in the beginning. but after a few adjustments. i'm back to what i should be. and i'm loving it!
yes there are moments of cravings! but why start that battle all over!
keep your stick on the ice!

It will click and you'll be back where you are. Take care you guys.
