great job. Sounds like you are definitely winning the mental game. I think you're right, if a person makes up their mind that the answer to the crave is a resounding "NO" then the crave doesn't bother all that much and we're left with just the withdrawl symptoms.
See ya, ya'all (by the way was that proper texan?)

I am not sure what has happened to me, but I honestly haven't really had that hard of a time today. I think that I just finally have made a choice for myself and do not care to smoke. I have a sore/dry throat, I cough quite a bit, and I can't sleep. But I will not give up. This web site has offered a smoker trying to quit... more than any website I have ever seen. And it's not THE WEBSITE... it's the people! I presume that this webpage is an alternative for the "C" word. I just hope that in a year or two or even three that I am still on here helping others the way ya'll (YEP IM FROM TEXAS) have helped me!! It's funny, today I actually didnt go about my day trying to NOT think about it... today I actually went about my day really not thinking about it. I was busy! And I even saw one of my friends smoking and gave her a hug. And didn't feel that I even craved a smoke!! THANK YOU GOD! Thank you friends... I am so excited to be living healthier! I don't dred not smoking anymore! YES!!
