As promised, my 1st feedback. Day 4 - almost 5 & still going. Does feel like 4 weeks/months. This program is working for me so far. Thank You. Not trying to be negative but I'm waiting for something to go wrong. Not really having cravings & the reason is simple - my mind and body is playing tricks on me the whole time. Then I am here - then I'm not. Then I'm hot - then cold. Short temper but I breath in & count to 10. Summary: Everything is just a bit fuzzy at present. I am not fighting it. Later. :) [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 9/15/2006 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 4 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 91 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $10 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 0 [B]Hrs:[/B] 15 [B]Mins:[/B] 54 [B]Seconds:[/B] 15

You are doing absolutely wonderful, Pierre! Way to go. I still sometimes have that kind-of 'I'm not really myself' fuzzy feeling!

Hello Pierre - WOW You're doing just FABULOUS - hang in there and just make sure you be gentle with yourself and do your deep breathing - it truly works. Maybe you are just going to have an easier quit - allow it to happen. Let us know if you need some tips on relaxation, everybody has different things that worked well for them. ~ Stay strong.

Pierre - Good for you! Quitting really can be a calmer and easier experience... Stay in the moment and don't let your guard down AND don't keep waiting for the other shoe to drop :) Oftentimes, we find exactly what we're looking for, friend :) You're doing beautifully! Let us know if you need us...

Pierre, I was fuzzy for a while when I first quit - just go with the flow and it will clear and you will be fine! You are doing marvelously. Congrats on FIVE days smokefree!! Penitent d855
