We Quit Cigarettes

[R2elk]

Absolutely

During many of the times I was quitting Copenhagen, I would often suck/chew on a plum pit.

I still think about it pretty frequently, but it isn't a huge overwhelming urge anymore. Unless really stressful things are happening, then I either gotta sit on my hands or go to a friend's place and fall off the wagon.
Not having anything smoking related at my home was the biggest contributer to my quitting. It's too much freaking effort to go elsewhere just for a quick drag!

Some interesting memory of research from circa 1998/99 the bodies addiction to tobacco is ~3 days to clean of the system. All the other chemicals and psychological addictions are much more pervasive & insidious to work through..

So to that, I say "fight the good fight." And also add the data I have shared in this thread a month or so ago about "B vitamins, specifically B-12 methylcobalin(sp) not cyanocobalin.

what did the plum pit ever do to you to deserve such terrible treatment?

Your socks are matching. And in all logical math that " .4" is naturally supposed to be rounded down.

Oh and [edit] might I suggest an added 'rub'? Doing squats in ways that match's this weight number... So "I did the 1st round of 35 squats-" etctera, etcetera.....

And I did 135 before dinner so (insert raspberry producing smiley face)

Three days without smoking.
No magic pills gum or anything...and nobody died. Amazing!

You are one tough nut.

Today might be tough. You be tougher!

 

[Kiki]

I was surprised today wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. Yesterday was way worse. I'm hoping that means the worst part is over now.
I will be so happy when I'm no longer thinking about it every 5 freaking minutes.

I don't think about it at all.
You're going to get there.
You'll be there before you know it.

 

[Kiki]

Yup. I definitely wanna put something else in my mouth since I cant smoke.
I'm keeping my snacks limited to fruits and veggies.
And nuts
And a small piece of dark chocolate occasionally for a little reward.

Lollipops.

 

[Kiki]

I think I'd like a lollipop right now.
I better run to the grocery store.

 

[Kiki]

I went to the grocery and guess what?

No lollipops.
WTH
