How about a new shampoo or body wash . Maybe a new exotic tea or a magazine as a reward. I also wanted to let you know that you helped give up those two cigarettes I was hanging onto . I quit Last Saturday March 23 and still have had not one puff. So the cravings seem to be constant but I DONT CARE LOL . Crave away I say but It isn't happening. Like you I would rather not replace with food . But on that day I decided enough already I just agreed to whatever it takes not to light up. I allowed myself to do this whatever it takes because that's where I am at. So cookies and chocolate covered peanut butter cups replace those two cigarettes. I am over it the candy and cookies now but I would have had a cookie or three with a cup of tea and a ciggy anyway , so I wasn't replacing the ciggy with a cookie. But the whole eat grapes , carrot sticks , chew gum not for me . I would rather jump in the shower , have a cup of tea or sip some water and take a deep breath. I have invested in supplements for my water like emergen C , collagen pops from HUM and collagen beauty supplements from Vital Proteins . I am indulging in these things instead of smoking . Oh and sometime I just take a nap when a craving hits hard. But I must say because I am on Chantix and maybe because I weaned myself the cravings are toned down most of the time not all of the time . I am only on Day 8 but for me that's a miracle .
