GOOD LUCK to all you guys, I am smoke free for about 5 weeks now maybe 6 not really sure. Everybody quits differently, for me I curl up and almost mourn for about 3 days and then gradually build new habits. Its hard to let go of a habit and an addiction even when you know its bad for you. But just stay determined and if one way doesn't work find another way, just remember the longer you are smoke free the easier it gets and eventually you won't even want a cigarette and then you are home free and a whole lot richer in health and in your pocketbook. I know if I can do it you can too.

Now! Onto some things that may help you..it may be something to make you laugh, a helpful tip or similar. I will try my best to post something new everyday The biggest thing is DONT GIVE UP on YOURSELF!!! IF you slip, dont beat yourself up...this will not help..INSTEAD reward yourself in little ways everyday! For me, its been going to the grocery store and buying myself a bouquest of cut flowers because I love flowers. So lets go!!!
To get your day started:
TIPS: (TY habitrol)
You may be faced with high risk tempting situations that you couldn't plan ahead for. Remember to:
AVOID the situation
LEAVE the situation
DISTRACT yourself from the craving
DELAY taking that cigarette (the urge will pass within five minutes)
Use SELF TALK
DRINK lots of water!! It will help your body rid itself of the toxins...and if you experience a craving or urge..DRINK DRINK DRINK water!!!!
As well as the above I think it would be beneficial to post daily stats! You can do this either first thing in the morning or in the evening..your choice! But since I KNOW we ALL CAN do it...I cant wait to see them!
So my stats for the day:
Todays Date: 05/28/2002
My Quit Date: 05/06/2002
Smoke-Free Days: 22
Cigarettes Not Smoked: 671
Amount Saved: $198
Life Gained:
Days: 2 Hrs: 8 Mins: 17 Seconds: 12
