Thank you all for the info. I sure dont want to go through this again. I guess the correct wording shouldn't have been easy. Nothing worth anything is easy. I have just accepted this, and embraced it. I have had horribe days, but I think not like some have had. I thank God that this is true. I will guard my quit. I must make myself remember those 3 P's. thank you Cuddles! I dont want to be the one in a year or two from now that says I'm back. That scares me. Thank you all for your advice. It means a lot to me.

Okay. Where do I start???????? I got home yesterday from Laughlin. I know, wrong place to go so early in my quit. But, not smoking wasn't going to stop me from living my life. It is my choice not to smoke. Well, when we arrived there, I was scared. When I got to my room, I got very scared. I thought, how do I unpack without a smoke? Well, I did. I unpacked, without a smoke. Okay, now down to play 21!!! Sat at a table. I saw no one smoking at it! It wasnt so bad. I could do it. Uh oh........ now I'm surrounded by smokers. 1 to my left, 3 to my right...... Oh no......... Whats this??? I start coughing!!! The smokers look at me and say I'm sorry..... I tell them I'm okay, and then I leave that table. Needless to say, thats how the whole weekend went. I didn't even crave a smoke!! It was like I had never smoked. I didn't even think about smoking. I am so proud beyond belief. I started my quit because my hubby wanted to quit. I thought I'd make it easier on him. When we quit, I was counting down the minutes that he would give in, so that I could. I posted on here, and someone responded "that they had done the similar, but had grown into their quit." Well, I definately have grown into my quit. I know I will never smoke. One question though................ This quit has been easy for me. Why? My initial intention was not to quit, but I got through it. My cravings were not that bad. I got through it. Now, 22 days into my quit, and I have no cravings. Not a one. I do not dream about smoking. I do not glamourize my time when I used to smoke. I do not feel I am missing anything. I dont even think about smoking, or for that, not smoking. I do think, however, that the Nicodemon will come and slap me right in the face to say "So, you think this is easy, well take this!!!!!" I do wait for the big test. I know it will come. Someday. I am just proud of myself. I have life. :) [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 3/5/2006 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 22 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 679 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $71.94 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 1 [B]Hrs:[/B] 19 [B]Mins:[/B] 44 [B]Seconds:[/B] 12

Congratulations on 22 4my2girls, you are doing wonderful. But please keep your guard up, My first time was a breeze, until I hit 90 days, I let my guard down because I thought it was so easy to quit. I thought I could have just one and be ok, but then I found excuses to have another one and another one. Well now I am on my 3rd quit and it seems to get harder each time. Keep a Positive attitude, Post Often and not one puff ever. I would have been fine if I would of kept the three P's in my head. Dont want to scare you, Just want you to stay on track.

4my2girls, That's GREAT that you're not craving all that much! Count your blessings! But do always be on guard. Although 22 days is great, it isn't out of the woods quite yet. The nicodemon is just waiting for the opportunity to catch you off guard. Always be ready for the cravings! But, that doesn't mean you can't enjoy the fact that you're having an easier quit either! That's wonderful and I'm glad you made it through that trip smoke free! Congratulations on making it through a tough situation! Crave the Quit!
