Yes, jj, that can def. help.
Well done on day three. Let's kick day four's ass now.

Nice job jj!


Surprisingly, that doesn't help me at all.  Drinking beers only bothers me nominally more than no beer at all, but smoking makes me want to smoke bad.


Go figure.


Congrats, keep doing what works for you.

I use records for that and don't have to justify it to my friends.

don't give in during the hard moments and you will pass through. Day six will be better. There is always one really bad day. If you can get over it.....

Day 10


I realized today that I was spending more time not worrying about smokes than I was obsessing about smoking them.  It gets easier. 

Six months is my hurdle, and the last time I was this serous was more than 3 years ago, but its day by day at this point.

Congrats!


I'm just rounding out week two (I'll be there tomorrow) and I can attest to the suffering.  This week is where you find out if your reasoning is going to work.  It's easy to white knuckle your way through the first week, since you are so determined that sheer stubbornness can get the job done.  Now the battle really starts.


Fortunately, by now you have probably started to get used to not smoking.  This is also the week where I realized I was spending more time forgetting about smoking than I was obsessing about it.  This is also the week that other people's smoke started turning from desirable to disgusting.  This was also the week that I was able to go out and have a few drinks and not really worry about smoking, though smoke free bars in Montana definitely help.
