Day 20

 It is day 20 of my commitment to quit! I must say that some days are definitely harder than others! I did slip. I confess… However, not much! I still feel confident and committed.  I didn’t change my quit date because it is still the day I quit!! I felt horribly guilty. I felt like I was sneaking behind the barn to do something very dirty that no one could know about! But here I am admitting it.

What happened was that I tried to be strong enough to not use the nicotine patch. I’m telling you, I just have to keep the patch on. Then I don’t feel the crave nearly as bad and it’s much easier to ignore. 

All in all, I feel strong and am not coughing as much and I can sing with a clear voice. The raspiness is going away! I love it. 

As always, thank you all for your support. 

Kindest regards to you all,

Julee

Congratulations on 20 days smokefree.  We are here if you need us.  NOPE not one puff ever no matter what.

There is nothing wrong with using NRT.  It's certainly better than continuing to smoke.   Congrats on day 20!
