Congratulations and welcome to SSC , you will not regret this decision....for a minute I though you were my husband joining this site because of the name and location....lol but no such luck my husband is at work and has no time for this at work. He is planning on quitting in June. To help you with the cravings drink lots of ice cold water take deep breaths and when it gets to bad start excercising or walking it does help ease the craves. Stay close to this site, everyone is very helpful with advice and encouragement. Your wife will be very happy with your decision. Good Luck and lots of willpower.

Welcome to the online support community and congratulations on making the decision to quit smoking!
I strongly encourage you to prepare for
your quit using the program. Quitting smoking is not only a habit, it's an
addiction. This program is going to help you plan how to deal with cravings and
more importantly teach you how to replace this old habit with a new one.
You'll also need to put into place a reward
system. It should have three components: small one for after each craving,
medium for the end of each smoke-free day and a bigger one for the end of each
smoke-free week.
Start reading through the forums, you'll
quickly realize that many have felt just as you do now and they are now
non-smokers. You'll also be able to find a lot of tips and tricks to help you
along the way.
