Hi tiga, welcome to this terrific site!What a wonderful choice you have made.Deep breaths, stretching and lots of water helped me in the first few days along with reading and re-reading my reasons for quitting and all the positive messages from everyone here. I also taped "N.O.P.E.(Not One Puff Ever) to my computer monitor.I love that term.

Hi sammo, how are you doing today-quit day? I know it can be scary but it is also exciting to start a new healthier lifestyle--baby steps. Remember to take deep breaths and read over your reasons for quitting along with all the other great info on this site. Let us know how you're doing, we're all pulling for you!

Hi sammo, glad to hear you're gonna join the non-smoking community. One thing that I do to keep my mouth busy is chew sugarless gum, not all the time, but when I feel my mouth needs to do something. It's usually a couple few times a day that I'll just shove a whole bunch of pieces in my mouth ( I would recomend doing this at home or in private). It's fun and after awhile my mouth gets tired and I don't want to do it anymore. :p Trudy [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 3/21/2006 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 21 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 495 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $62.79 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 2 [B]Hrs:[/B] 8 [B]Mins:[/B] 25 [B]Seconds:[/B] 0

You're right Shevie, I should just consider the source. I'm glad that the nurse was proud of you. Martha-I didn't even think of a reward for 3 weeks...I'll have to mull it over, mmmm definately not a food reward.lol Trudy :p [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 3/21/2006 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 21 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 495 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $62.79 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 2 [B]Hrs:[/B] 8 [B]Mins:[/B] 24 [B]Seconds:[/B] 2

Patch - Vivid Dreams

Wow virtual vacations, how exciting...and free. Bet you can hardly wait to get to sleep at night. I've had one dream so far (I'm doing cold turkey),almost took a drag on a cigarette in the dream then remembered...I don't smoke. Bor-rring!
