Day 4.......I'm still doing well. But, I am staying away from smokers completely right now. My boyfriend still smokes but I am making him go down the basement to smoke now. I have been drinking a lot of water and I've gotten on the treadmill 3 of the 4 days. All in all, I am proud of myself. I know the true test will come when I have a few drinks. As much as I would like to say I could quit drinking......I don't think I really want to. One vice at a time. So my plan is to chew on straws when I go out on St. Patrick's day. If I get too tempted I pray that I am strong enough to just leave. So that's it. I appreciate the support everyone has given me. It helps a lot....so do my patches. YAY! I can do this!

Good job on this......your final quit!!! I am on day 10 with the patch and I gotta say, it's going better than I thought it would. I am a little nervous about going off of them, but you sound like you've got a handle on it. Keep up the good work!!

I am so glad to hear that I am not the only one who has "little demons" trying to sabatoge me....and it doesn't just happen with the smoking. Any time I start to be successful at anything, it seems I obviously don't want to and I fail. Such a load of crap we feed ourselves....It sounds like you are doing great though, despite the nagging from from those demons. It's a struggle, but keep on keeping on. We can do this Pete!! Keep posting too cuz I think it really helps. I am only on day 10 and I am wearing the patches too. I think, for me, I am really ready because the voices (so far) haven't been hounding me too bad. I've even been out drinking (which i said i wouldn't do for awhile, but what are you gonna do?) and if you drink at all, you know how hard it can be to not smoke. But not once did I really want one. I was impressed. With myself. Imagine that. I am impressed with you as well! Keep it up.
