Day 1: Tried quitting multiple times over he past few months, only ended up smoking more and gaining more more weight. I need to turn my life around starting now.

Hello and good morning everyone. I too am in the same boat as all of you. I'm 35 years old and literally smoked weed for the first time when I was 11. I quit briefly from time to time, here and there, but always came back to it. I am now to the point where I just finished school and am now out in the field for 180 hours of free work in an environment I know nothing about. (Went from warehousing to the medical field.)

Last time(s)I smoked was Sunday before going to see Bob Dylan, though I promised myself I would quit the next day since this was a historical moment for me. Then Monday rolled around and I noticed I had a free 10 hours of game play with Battlefield 1 on Xbox One so I decided that was a reason to smoke. All stupid pointless reasons....

Yesterday I actually made it a full day without smoking in ages and now I'm on day two. I'm 5'10" and around 210lbs. I want my life back! I want my health back! What is holding me back?? My mental addiction to weed. Plain and simple my friends... I am without a doubt an enhancement smoker and I need to curb that shit!

This morning I downloaded a sobriety app on my Droid. It has a timer on it that you can set to help you monitor how long you've been clean. There are a few of them in the app store so pick whichever one works for you if you decide to go that route.

Next up for me is a gym once I can start making money again. I feel that when my cravings start to hit, the best thing to do would be to go to the gym. Even the library is a positive place to go where you know people aren't fucked up and where people have like minded goals. Health and knowledge are their priorities. (At least on the outside which is something someone like me needs to see and be around.)

So in closing, this is hard as fuck for all of us. I hate admitting the fact that weed was/is ruining my life. Its a sad, cold, hard fact and to be honest, I have shame because of it. Its just weed right everyone?? Well, maybe for some but not for me. I am a cannabis addict and I need to kick it like I kicked cocaine 4 years ago. (A whole other story....)

Good luck everyone! I have your back if you all have mine!!
