I've been quit for 8 days today and I think I've gained about 4 lbs, but I've been working that treadmill and stationary bike harder than usual. I never eat potatos and I just got done making a casserole full of scalloped ham and potatos. Geez what am I going to do with all that food???? Ahhh Now chocolate and candy I like and I always eat it whether I'm smoking or not. I do not keep deserts in my house though. So I am thinking I'll probably not have to bad a time with the weight gain.

Wow, the smell of a smoker is really becoming noticeable today. This guy I work with walked in from smoking and I really noticed it and then later when I walked by his office I could smell it. Ewww I was a stinky smoker. LOL

I thought about washing all my clothes. As far as smell goes I have also been smelling some different smells and haven't really been able to place them yet. I don't know if it's food or perfume or BO for that matter. LOL Definitely is a new and wonderful experience.
Thanks everyone for responding on this topic.

This really has been so much easier than I expected. Leading up to it was worse than actually doing it. Thanks to all the support here and to my sister Kelly for suggesting I come here.

Daily Llama, you are too funny! Thanks to all, I was very very anxious about this in the beginning but it is all good and like Sparky
say's if I just take it one day at a time it not so overwhelming. I have the thoughts all the time as would be expected so early on, but I prefer not to give those thoughts any power, so I stay positive and don't talk about it much and it's not a problem. I intend to stay quit.

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh! All of a sudden this morning I have turned into a raving B$%&&* or at least in my mind I have. It's 9:15-smoke time and that's what I thought of and now I'm holding onto the chair.
