Cigarettes Not Smoked

Thank you Rusty! Thank you everybody! I have been following your lead each day! I'm on day 2 and have been feeling like a chicken zipping around choatically trying to focus on anything but smoking. I still think about those nasty cigarettes but they can't keep up with me! Hehehe Delaying and distracting myself seems to be working! You asked - "Did you ever think that you could go a whole day with a cigarette?" No way! But thanks to all of you, I'm doing it!

Thank you SO SO SO much for this post. I am on day 2 and although it is a bit more difficult than yesterday I know I will make it through. Right now I can feel all the muscles in my back are tight, I'm sure it's just the withdrawl and nothing a few deep breaths won't cure. In the 5 times I've tried to quit, this is the first time I am determined...the delay is working for me a lot...I saw a post that helped that one person would say "if it's really that bad i'll have a smoke tomorrow" and tomorrow never came. i am finding that is working for me. I am not finding the cravings really bad, just a bit worse than yesterday, but breathing better today is all the reward I need. I have a doctor's appointment today in which she is giving me some sort of lung test. I can't wait to tell her I've quit and I'm on day 2. Thank you to EVERYONE ON HERE!!!! YOU GUYS ARE MY LIFELINE!!!
