Share your quitting journey
Good Morning, everyone! I'm still tracking and reading and getting ready. September 24 (my first day of FREEDOM!) is fast approaching! Everytime I start to feel nervous about being without cigarettes, I try to imagine myself NOTworrying about how many I have left, where the next place is that I can smoke, how nasty it feels to suck that hot smoke into my lungs. I have been trying some little acts of "bravery", too. I actually left the house to go to the grocery store and left my pack of cigarettes at home. And guess what? I survived the experience! Lol. I've been delaying cigarettes and experiencing that urge rise and then fade away. I really do think I'll be ready. I picked September 24 because I have a 28 hour layover in Seattle that day. I'll be staying in a hotel that has NO balconies (once of my "special places" to smoke: hotel balconies) and my boyfriend is flying to Seattle to meet me and help me through that first day and night. I'll be assembling my "quit kit" this week; can anyone suggest healthier options than candy and mints to snack on? I can't chew gum because of dental work. I am really worried about gaining weight and don't want to get hooked on high-calorie stuff . I also want to say how much I appreciate all the people and support here. I love reading the blogs everyday! Have a great day, and to those who are already not smoking...YOU ARE MY HEROES!
