So it has been 76 days smoke free yay! almost 3 months really!
So it has been tough at times and I will tell you it is still tough at times, but not for long periods of times really. I usually completely forget about how desperately I wanted a cigarette like 5 minutes ago.
I really don't miss it really and it definately does not take up much of my thoughts. The last time I craved was when I smelled a a cigarette burning from a girl I was talking to. But once again the cravings are very short and don't last long, but they can be intense when they happen.
I am definately glad money wise because I really can't afford to do it right now anyways, I only have a certain amount of money left in my account till next month and besides my fixed costs such as rent, anything else I buy it optional and fufills me, no longer do I have to be scrounging for money for smokes, or feel guilty for spending my last dimes on cigarettes. Which I always seem to regret.
Smoking just seems so far away from how I live now, and incredibly easy to abstain from really. No doubt it was hard at first but it really does get easier with time. I can't believe it has only been 2 months!!!
My sister is thinking about quitting smoking, I hope she does. I hope anyone who wants to does, they are really missing out on how great really it is to not be enslaved to nicotine anymore.
