I Always Use To Say . . .

. . . that if I could quit smoking for an hour, I could quit for good! I still believe that. Making the decision to do it is as hard as actually quitting (I've done this before). Seeing how many cigarettes I haven't smoked is unbelievable. I'm calculating the amount of time I've saved over the last 4 days by doing something else. I'm trying to mentally minimize the effect that zyban and the patch are having on me - I don't want to get freaked out by them. Right now I am focussing on the fact that I am not smoking, one hour at a time. And boy, some hours are looooong. I can do this, I can do this, I can do this . . . .

Cigarettes Not Smoked

Great way to look at your quit!! I have only quit once in my life for a week. I have never really wanted to (mentally) i guess?? Sushik one hour at a time, one day at a time.. It has worked for me. Be prepared for your triggers and stay true to yourself.. YOU CAN DO IT!!! I keep telling myself that a cig will not change the sistuation or make my life better.. Being a NON smoker will change my life in so many positive ways!!! lots of luck mon [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 5/22/2006 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 13 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 268 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $39 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 1 [B]Hrs:[/B] 9 [B]Mins:[/B] 4 [B]Seconds:[/B] 56

Does the "S" stand for spunk?? LOL It should cuz U sure got it! U ARE going to do this! I am a cold turkey and for me this was the way to go...........got it out of my system physically in one short go and concentrated on the mental and emotional aspects which the way I see it...............go on for a while..........varies with each person. Mine are infrequent but, with the right tools and attitude..........this is a totally doable and very desirable thing to overcome.

[IMG]http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f190/cuddlebug230/WayToGo.gif[/IMG] sushik - 1 second, 1 minute, 1 hour at a time. You are doing it. Cuddles It's better to be a non-smoker with an occasional desire for a cig than a smoker with a constant desire to quit......

Of course you can do this! Look what you've done for FOUR DAYS! That is so awesome, Sushik. 109 not smoked. And 36 bucks saved already. Amazing stuff. And you are absolutely right to take it one hour at a time. You are doing great!
