Hello everyone,
I have made it through 6 days....today is day 7, and I'm so excited. The first three days were the toughest, but I'm getting help from 21mg patches. My weekend went well, and my mood is better. I'm handling stress better and actually feel unusally calm (is this before the storm). I can't believe that if I hadn't quit smoking I would have smoked over 130 cigs this past week......you don't realize how much your smoking until you see it add up on the meter. I did buy myself a reward, something fun from Bed Bath and Beyond....the lavender sugar scrub.Love this stuff and love that store! The cilia are growing back, because I'm coughing up junk and all of you knows what that crap looks like....ick!!!!!!!!! Anyways, that is my update for today....One other thing I have found helpful is that I'm trying not to over eat at meals...then you don't get that completely stuffed feeling and crave a cigerette. Last night I was out to dinner at the Texas Roadhouse with my kids and only ate half my sandwhich....ok I ate 3 of the homemade rolls before dinner, but still!! Everyone have a great day and thanks for all the support.
