My Goal to Stop Smoking

[PixelPirate]

I really do appreciate the support. Im happy to say I have still not touched cigarettes nor any other nicotine products. I must admit I do feel great, but It does feel like my days are longer than they used to be since Im not spending so much time with smoke breaks.

This is wonderful news and I'm so happy for you! Is it possible to replace your smoke breaks by talking short walks instead?

 

[PixelPirate]

Not really as Ill be back in school soon. So my days will be pretty much back to normal.

Depends on how bad the craving is. sometimes I just chug some water and others I emulate a menthol by chewing on some gum and sucking on a straw. Other times I just grab a orange or some yogurt.



All depends on what I thinks gonna work best at the time.

Okay, I can understand chewing gum or eating something with lots of flavor in it, but how can sucking on a straw help with cravings? That one I never heard of before...



Good luck though and it sounds like you're doing awesome!

Just gives your fingures something to do...and when its between your fingers it feels similar...

Sounds like you're kicking 'butt'! You have a pretty positive attitude about it, that's awesome and the way to go about it.

Okay, that makes sense I suppose.

Congrats! Giving up something is always hard. Even harder when it is pumped full of addictive chemicals.
