I am still smoke free. I’m still struggling with cravings but not as much. I noticed a pattern: it’s worst in the mornings. I think if I drink my coffee in the morning, it will help a lot. I also need to keep going to the gym. I still have some cold symptoms but they are minimal.
I’m glad to be smoke free. I look forward to things getting better as time goes on.
Good thinking! Maybe you can get to the gym first thing and THEN treat yourself to some coffee? Changing things up is key to conquering those lingering associations.
Congrats on the great quit you have going!!!
You are protecting your quit each time you notice a pattern, change your thoughts, or provide yourself insight into your own behaviors I think you gain a solid quit that way so way to go!! It can get hard at times but as long as you don't smoke during the hard, you're good! I hope you feel at least a glimmer of pride in yourself for quitting because you are doing awesome at it Yay, you!!!
ps-hope you feel better soon!!
Great job Stan! Making some awesome progress identifying your "weak" spots and dealing with those head on! Glad to see that your cravings are becoming less.
