I’ve made it 6 weeks! I am definitely breathing easier! I have used my cig savings to get facials and massages and that has been very nice!  I still have cravings, but I don’t give in and they pass.  For anyone out there who is struggling..... if I can do this, so can you...... I quit at the height of my smoking.  I really committed to it and told everyone I could, to stay accountable. I am so thankful for becomeanex.org!  One thing I did, that has helped is bought a Fitbit watch- it tracks my steps and general health.... when I get a craving I use it as my go to .... to divert my attention, while the craving passes. It also helps me track my weight... as I do not want to gain as a result of quitting

WOW!  6 Weeks is HUGE!

I did a search and found this article on ridding your car of the cigarette smoke smell:  https://www.washos.com/blog/remove-smoke-smell-car/  You can also put 1/2 of a cut apple under each of the front seats...it's a great odor sponge.

Isn't it going to be nice to get in a clean smelling car?  YES!

Six weeks is absolutely wonderful and you SOUND wonderful, good for you.  Keep going and you will keep reaping the benefits of being an EX, so glad you found us and that you committed.  What a great blog. I would mark it helpful but can't do that with a blog...I hope newbies read it because it will make them feel hope.
