Terry, get a straw, hard candy, mints, gum...something to keep your mouth busy. Something else that really, really helps is to change your routine around a bit,have your shower first and then coffee or that type of switch, just so it is different and it eases the cravings. I am a coffee lover too, and I refused to give up my coffee, but the routine change did the trick! If you find it tough, come here and post for help! Thats what we're here for! You can do this! Its a few days of uncomfortableness and then it gets better and better! Hang in there! :) [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B]3/5/2007 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 328 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 8,200 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $3,460.40 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 43 [B]Hrs:[/B] 1 [B]Mins:[/B] 38 [B]Seconds:[/B] 46

Terry, your gym workouts are going to be so much better when you quit. In fact I noticed daily positives when I quit, keep those handy and your quit reasons. You can do this, we will help :D [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B]5/3/2007 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 269 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 2,690 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $470.75 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 26 [B]Hrs:[/B] 5 [B]Mins:[/B] 49 [B]Seconds:[/B] 49

You can do it. Delay, delay, delay... and remember the cold water and deep breathing. You will be just fine. I'm so excited! :) [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B]8/25/2007 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 155 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 4,650 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $906.75 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 13 [B]Hrs:[/B] 23 [B]Mins:[/B] 50 [B]Seconds:[/B] 5

Sounds like a private joke and I definitely don't get it. What do the meals have to do with coffee? OK so this is where I am right now. I smoked 6 smokes today and 2 were bummed because I hadn't bought any. I did not stop and get any on the way home and I can go to bed without another and wake up and get to the gym and the grocery store without one to start my day. We'll see if I can just continue that throughout the day. UGH!

Okay, Sparky, sounds like a plan. Let me know in advance so I can cook all my meals a few days before time. :8o: [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B]8/25/2007 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 154 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 4,620 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $900.90 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 13 [B]Hrs:[/B] 23 [B]Mins:[/B] 22 [B]Seconds:[/B] 5

Terry welcome to the site. Now let me tell you a little something about your sister :eg: Okay Kelly I will keep it between you and me. Terry you have found a wonderful site with more support than you can imagine. You are going to find friends and the desire to quit smoking doing it one day at a time. When I go to see my daughter maybe you can join Kelly and me for coffee :) Keep the Quit Sparky [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B]4/30/2007 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 271 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 2,710 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $406.50 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 38 [B]Hrs:[/B] 10 [B]Mins:[/B] 24 [B]Seconds:[/B] 16
