welcome
I too, am 46 and I have been smoking since college...
This is day 2 for me... I just read Allen Carr's "The Little Book of Quitting" He has another "The Easy Way to Stop Smoking". I have not been able to get a copy of the second but he talks about not concentrating on the misery of not smoking, but to be excited and positive about being a non smoker..
YEA!!
Good luck
Breathe....Great Fresh Air

stef
wow!!!
4 weeks! I am so impressed. Just my 3 day and that seems so far away. You off to a great start. Allen Carr's book has really helped
me, too.
NOPE works for me because that's how I lost my last quit. I thougt I could have one a day for about a week... which turned into a pack a day. Live and learn..

Chris
How are things with you today??
This is my second quit in 12 months. I quit last summer for about 90 days. I could breathe, bike ride, and run.. For some reason I thought that i could have one cig a day for about a week. The next thing I knew... I was back to pack a day..
I am using the patch during the day and using PM drug for the evening
and sleeping like a baby.
this is the beginnin for day four and this quit has been much easier than the first. The cravings pass...
good luck

thanks.. I really needed to smile...
For some reason I have very little energy.. I should be out walking or something.. but it is soooooo hot here in the South..
I am glad not to have to go out and smoke...
That is so sad.
thanks again..
