Yesterday, I went to the grocery store to pick up a few necessities! I had substantial amount for my purchases...with plenty left over!
The *test* that I passed was...I walked out of the store with my purchase, and NEVER even *thought* about buying a pack of cigarettes!
I will admit when sitting at my computer, those *pyschological* urges can be rather strong at times! The urges are NOT for the cigarette, it's just the *habit* of having it hanging out of my mouth! For the most part, the straws help a lot...but, there are some times that the urges comes in rapid succession, even with the straw in my mouth! But, I think I solved that problem yesterday when I was at the store...I spent $3 (that I would spend on cigarettes...and bought 4 pack of Trident Cinnamon gum! Now when those harder urges strike...the 8warm* cinnamon in the gum helps curb it!
Thanks ALL! God Bless!
I AM a NON smoker...AT LAST!
