Step One - Quit Smoking

I quit smoking today. It's hard, but I'm dealing with it. Last cigarette was around 11:30 PM last night. Barely slept a wink because of the nicotine withdrawal I guess. Either that, or the patch kept me up. At least I have the patch to help with the waves of cravings that I get.

 

I just have to keep my mind on the prize. A newer, healthier me. Someone that my little daughter can look up to, in so many different ways. Hopefully, since she's not quite two yet, she will never remember that her mother was once a smoker. Today is the first time that I have quit, that I am actually excited about it. I've quit before, then started, over and over (kind of like my dieting). But today I feel like my reasons for doing it are so much more important than they ever were. To be skinny again....that's a gift I can't make little of, so I will quit smoking for it. And of course, my dear daughter. I have to do this for her as well.

 

Wish me luck!!

ask your doctor to perscribe Zyban-Welburtrin,it works better that the patch,you dont have the continue flow of nicot.this is an antidepression it cuts the craving down to nothing...you startit for 5 days while you smoke and after the 5th day you put them down and wont want to pick them back up...this takes the craving away......and it really works both myself and my husband stopped together..taking the welbutrin....I wish you the best quiting...
