Just enough for tonight and then I’m really hoping I’ll be done for good. The next few days are not going to be fun. Sigh

Good luck. It gets easier as you go. In a month or two you will be eating food and go…WOW this tastes better than I remember! Because your taste buds will come back!

What are your plans for when you get cravings? Do you have anything special to eat/drink to distract yourself?

I’m on day one @FatMama we can discuss stopping cigs as we go through it together !! I know the uncomfortableness for a few days will ease after that considerably…it’s really a mind game…how bad do you want it?

Do you have decaf? You may find yourself drinking pot after pot to keep your hands busy.

I drank a lot of coffee when I was quitting and I used instant decaf and made all kinds of “fancy” drinks. Adding pumpkin or apple and spices or cream and cinnamon. I also made fresh whipped cream because it takes 6 years to make by hand and then enjoyed a few cups of hot chocolate.

yes indeed !! I used to work with this jamaican in florida painting apartments with my then girlfriend and he said, “don’t be the man behind the cigarette…be the man in front of the cigarette.” made a lot of sense to me.

I feel bad for smoking. I wasn’t a smoker, but when I got bored I tried it a few times and now I crave it lately. I don’t wanna start but I feel like it helps and I have nothing that helps since I’ve been feeling shitty recently.

Good luck. Very proud of you for trying! Remember it’s a hard drug to give up and most struggle with it. I’m cheering for you but sometimes it takes a couple of goes!
