MLK Glad you're getting through it. I have this theory about milestones and craves.....seems like many people are challenged right at a milestone or within a day or two. For myself, I think it is I am trying so hard to reach that particular milestone that once I reach it I kind of think it's going to be easier or something. Now, I like the milestones, but am aware that the milestone itself can trigger craves. Anyways...congrats on your 50 days!!!!! and keep strong Your quit buddy -aloha [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 3/22/2007 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 51 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 2,043 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $346.8 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 7 [B]Hrs:[/B] 0 [B]Mins:[/B] 45 [B]Seconds:[/B] 14

Thanks Alohakeia, you must have known I needed the bump. I don't know why but tonight has been especially hard. I have been dealing with several urges to smoke. I have been through so many situations lately where in the past I would have smoked - a wedding reception, birthday dinner, dinner and drinks with friends, driving over 100 miles, but I never wanted to smoke as badly as I did tonight. I was just talking on the phone to my mom and the urges were incredible, the worst I have had in many, many nights. I told my mom about them (she is a former smoker) and she helped me, but it has been really hard tonight. I know I will get through it, smoking is not an option. Funny how I really haven't had any problems until now, within the last hour. Crazy.

Great information...This is so important for us to know. I know for me...it felt like the death of something, so this makes perfect sense. thanks for sharing [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 11/7/2006 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 14 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 323 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $77 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 1 [B]Hrs:[/B] 7 [B]Mins:[/B] 3 [B]Seconds:[/B] 32

Oh that helps to know why I'm going around saying shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up, all day long. 3 pks day 52 years. There was about nothing I did not do and smoke. It's changed from smoke a cig to shut up.
