  1. That's definitely what I don't want to happen. . Honestly I think just posting here helps.. thank you Sent from my SM-G870W using the BariatricPal App
  2. Does that first line mean that you're trying to smoke two cigarettes daily? "Cutting down?" There's no such thing. Smoking is smoking; the amount is irrelevant. Most people have a hard time quitting. They become irritable at best, near-homicidal at worst for a couple three weeks. Such is life. Taking in extra oxygen helps greatly but briefly. Whenever you want a cigarette, inhale as slowly and deeply as possible -- feel your diaphragm expand -- and then let it all out as slowly as possible. Inhale through your nose, exhale through your mouth. Do it every time you want a cigarette. Put the money you're not spending on cigarettes into a jar. Decide for yourself what you'll do with the money once you reach the amount you determine. Head out of the house for a walk around the block when the urge is upon you. More Water. I haven't cut down.. that is all I normally smoke. . In fact it's not usually very day either but I am going to try the breathing and see how that helps.. thanks! My biggest challenge is that my husband smokes so the cigarettes are always around - I don't buy them myself. Sent from my SM-G870W using the BariatricPal App
  3. So I have done 4 weeks of high Protein low carbs/sugar diet successfully - no cheating. I am now on my full liquids a d next week will be 7 days of Clear Liquids before my sleeve surgery on October 12th. I'm feeling pretty good and down from 368 to 340. What I can't manage to do is stop my end of night 2 cigarettes per day.. I can usually go weeks without smoking but I am finding that with the hunger crazing the smoking has become a very big addiction.. any suggestions? Sent from my SM-G870W using the BariatricPal App
