I'm still keeping the crave diary. Only making entries when there is a crave. According to the diary, I've had a few more craves than usual in December. There have been 6 total already, and I rated a couple of them a "2," since they were stronger than usual. At the beginning of my quit, I would have loved a month like this, but it has been over a year and a half now.
Perhaps it's the nature of the month. I'm not a big fan of either darkness or Christmas. Plus, there has been a lot of overeating, and an overfull belly can also trigger a crave for me. Oh, and more alcohol than usual has been flowing.
Come to think of it, maybe I'm doing better than expected in the month of December.
...Either way, it seems like it's a good time to renew the pledge, just as a reminder and re-commitment to keep all the ground that I have gained. I will not smoke today.
