Hi everyone, I have been smoking for 22 years (I am 34), I quit once when I was pregnant, but started back when daughter was born. A little info about how I ended up here. I am a female hockey player (rec) I play twice a week in the summer and 5-6 times a week in the winter. I never really noticed my "stamina" or lack thereof while playing this sport, so it never really doned on me to quit smoking, until recently I went for an hour and a half bike ride with 2 friends, in which were both at least 4yrs+ older then myself. And as we enter the hour and half, I notice I am way behind these two huffing and puffin' away, and thier up ahead not even breathing heavy. I am telling you all this b/c this is the reason I am here today, that exact day (2 days ago) was the day I read "Allen Carrs': the EASYWAY to stop smoking" and it made a lot of sence, no BS. But going on the 11th hour of not smoking, and I'm going nuts, cause I work midnights, and it's boring, and I am craving a smoke like a bee needs honey, lol. Which is probably why I am writing so much, too keep myself busy. I wanted to ask a question as well, I am very clumsy (and VERY aggitated when clumsy) in the last day, is this a sympton of quiting smoking or am I just tired? lol
Thanks everyone! It's been 1 day and about 2hrs, since I had my last cigarette, and I am doing very well, still have cravings. But the good thing is I'm not eating when I'm bored (which what I was concerned about..lol) If I can just get the cravings to go away, I'll be good :)

Good news, I had a beer today (which always led me to a cigarette) and I didn't even crave one, which is extremely surprising for myself. Any suggestions on how to NOT eat when your bored when you want a smoke?

Well it's been 6 days, cravings are still here, but are minimal. I still find that I am very agitated tho. Little things that goes wrong set me off where normally they wouldn't. Anyone else like this or used to be like this? Does it go away? lol
