Good morning

It’s going great, I’m on day 7 myself using only coffee beans and coffee as an oral substitute.

I can tell you yesterday was a tough day and without support from here not sure I would have made it.  Yesterday I realized for me this is a daily battle and I cannot just rely on my willpower to get through I need people like you to keep me focused .  I always thought well I wrestled, did NAVY SARS, etc etc I can get through anything......7 days into this i can say addiction is a lot more challenging but the gift and reward is 100x greater.

My focus today is to work on controlling triggers and keep unwinding them.  For me I realized that I will make bad judgement decisions going to a gas station etc if I don’t train my mind I can handle it.  So, when my resolve is strong I am going to challenge myself and push those successes.........I will not use nicotine replacement or say just this once, it’s NEVER AGAIN!!!

Happy Wednesday, I’m here with you guys.  Send me a message if anyone wants to chat!!

Congratulations on 7 Days.  You are doing great.  I used really strong coffee several times a day. It gave me that charge I missed from smoking.  I could not have quit and stayed quit for 7 years without this site.  I needed the constant re-enforcement.  So many good folks at Ex.  Have a good day.

Good Afternoon Mike.  So good to see you.  I will be going for a walk today, to decrease the craves, and staying vigelent, and maybe crocheting a bit this afternoon.  Enjoy your bible study tonight!

We are under strict lockdown so I won't be seeing anyone.  It's just me and my precious kitty Ruby!
