Keep hanging in there Kasi!! Your doing AWESOME!!!
The first week I was addicted to petite carrot sticks, 
cauliflower with ranch dressing and Sonic Ocean Water drinks
(the drink has about 460 calories for an extra large!) Try to find a few
things you can swap between so you will less likely to become addicted. 
Your almost through Hell Week!!! Congratulations!! I say that because I KNOW
you will make it!!!

Get yourself a bottle of water and an assortment of chewing gum ( cinnamon, spearmint, fruit ). It really helps with the cravings and is an alternative for the sunflower seeds. keep it up. The first week is the toughest....

Hi all, Still hanging in here.  Its been a hell of a week (trying to keep my sense of humor - hell week), and I'm now addicted to sunflower seeds.  Oh well, cant be too bad and it keeps my car smelling better.  I have the sneezes and stuffed nose today which I cant remember this being mentioned as a symptom.   My headache is finally gone though so that's a bonus.  I've managed to just deal with the moment when I have cravings instead of looking ahead.  Oh and today, I'm supposed to make an appointment with my physician as the meds I've been on for years is finally running low and I am not worried about going.  He used to talk to me about quitting etc for years but now I'm going to shock him as I never told him I thought about ever quitting.  I never have until recently and I dove in after doing the workbook here.  So, needless to say, I'm gonna enjoy this visit :-)
