First day
so far 11 hours and 13 minutes without a cigg.......
 so far the cravings are not so bad, but then again I am chewing the nicorette gum.....and I haven't eaten lunch yet. That is prolly my most enjoyable cigg is after a meal. any other time I suffocate msyelf  my friend is coming to get me and take me out to lunch and he doesn't smoke so I will have support through that craving. just posting some progress and keeping myself committed and accountable. light and love Gail

thanks to you all....
beginning of day 3 and so far I have made it through all my triggers...... morning cigs after meals on the phone driving the car commercials ect....... so far so good, I am noticing not so much the cravings or withdrawals.....but I sure am noticing the conditioned behavior surrounding smoking more than the withdrawals. The automatic reach into my purse for the pack the automatic response to get up from a commercial and go outside the automatic conditioned response to start the engine and then lite up answering the phone and looking for a lighter all that stuff is soooo conditioned into me.....that the behavior is the first thought and the smoking is the afterthought.....does that make sense? wow never knew what a robot I had become surrounding the smoking. now I am on the path to freedom from those things light and love Gail
