2nd Day Smoke Free

Okay, so far so good. I've had some pretty harsh cravings, but haven't given in. As the craving hits, I just try to pretend that I'm on a surf board, and try to "ride the wave" all the way in. I know that the physical cravings only last 2-4 days, and there after it's all psychological. I quit before (cold turkey), and I can do it again. This is what I get for picking up a cigarette after being smoke free for 3 1/2 yrs. But this is what I must do in order to be banded. Not to mention the fact that it's great for my over all health.

My office is offering free workout classes twice a week. At 5:15 on Monday's and Thursdays. I'm going to go. I think it will help me through this. Not to mention it will help me physically.

My husband is very patient with me, and is being a huge source of support.

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!! KEEP IT GOING!!!

Congrats! I too have quit - this is day 1.5 for me. I quit pre-op then started again. This time I'm doing it for me and I know I'll stick with it. Hang in there and thanks for sharing!

You can do it, ChaCha!!!
