Come outside the box. Drink bottled water through a straw. Suck on a mint.  As for gum, you don't have to chew it.  Break off a small piece and place it under your tongue.  Cinnamon sticks, licorice root. cut up straws.  /blogs/Youngatheart.7.4.12-blog/2013/02/25/100-things-to-do-instead-of-smoke?sr=search&searchId=1f36...

Any kind of movement helps.  Walking with swinging arms is great if you can do that inside.  I wore headphones at work and listened to oldies and just bopped my head with the music sometimes.  Believe it or not, that really helps.

Chew on straws!!!  The cold outside for a few minutes might snap you back to keep your quit!

Many things to do ...do more work, go in bathroom and do jumping jacks, listen to some relaxing music, suck on hard cinnamon candy... start reading blogs and comment, sometimes helping others will help you...if nothing all else pray for strength...sending good vibes your way.
