So I have made it two months without a cigarette and this past Sunday and today I have had serious urges to smoke. I don't understand this because I thought I was past that sense or urgency of needing a cigarette. The nicotine is out of my system, I quit cold turkey so what is this all about? I have had some stressful situations, depression and anxiety but that is all normal and you know I smoked to smoked, I didn't have any reason I was a dang smoker for 20 plus years.
I need prayers and help right now, I don't think I will break down and buy a pack of cigarettes, I have no intentions of doing so, I Just need to ride through this day and I can't ignore the weight gain anymore, I am disgusted at myself for packing on at least 10 pounds in two months, its a constant reminder when I'm wearing jeans and shorts that are too tight. I'm in a cranky mood today as well.
So maybe you are triggered by your moods. Being anxious, depressed AND cranky, plus maybe uncomfortable in your tighter clothes. Idk for sure, but all that could be it.
Have you done something nice for yourself? Maybe go shopping? Even to a thrift store to buy some pants, until you lose that weight. Not that you should be worried about that yet.
Remember you are in no man's land. I understand that'S a rough time still with craves sneaking up on you. Maybe someone will post the link to that blog.
Best wishes, sending you light and love,
Becky
