WOW - rough night ... woke up so many times, drenched in sweat (hopefully toxins exiting), and one time my whole body was 'thrumming' - like electricity going through it. Very weird. I'm surprised I didn't really miss that FIRST ONE this morning when I let the dog out. The first one had a magic appeal for the first few second. Guess that's gone..
BEST THING OF ALL - I found a new way to look at the stopping process at www.quitsmokingonline.com
Some excellent advice. I needed to hear what they said - I was a bit pathetic yesterday, even crying for 'losing a friend' (what a stupid illusion that is) - poisonous old witch, more like! Now, after reading that site, it has turned the withdrawal monster on it's ear, and I can learn to truly feel the so-called 'cravings' and not run and hide from them and eat and distract myself. I have NO intention of putting on weight - stupid to get rid of one bad habit and add another.
I am so impressed with that site - I am going to donate (it's voluntary) because I want them to keep going -
No, I'm not associated with them in any way - I read about the site on THIS site - someone recommended it, and I'm ever so glad I found it.
Here's to my new smokefree life!
Oh yeah, I can't wait to add the PLUS SIDE of NOT SMOKING at the end of each post.
Today's one is : When we take our cruise and I have to carry a tiny evening bag on the formal evening, I don't have to worry about fitting ciggys and a lighter in there anymore - that will be loads easier! (Silly thing, I know, but a big annoyance each year)
Speaking of cruises - the coolest thing will also be - NOT having to leap out of bed, get dressed, run up the stairs to get outside to take a smoke (or smoke in the bathroom of the cabin with the extractor fan on and smoke up all the towels. PHEW!. That will be a pleasure, to get dressed at leisure, take time to put on make-up and amble up to breakfast - no stress!
