Sounds like you made it through your work day- how are you doing this evening? Do whatever it takes to protect your quit, I spent most of my first week on this site. Hang in there!

Thanks everyone. I think finding this site was key to me going almost 2 whole days. After 15 years of 25+ a day, this is a great feeling. It hurts but i know it only gets better [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B]6/12/2007 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 1 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 24 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $5.00 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 0 [B]Hrs:[/B] 4 [B]Mins:[/B] 59 [B]Seconds:[/B] 7

maybe some candy or sunflower seeds? Keep congratulating yourself for the gift you're giving yourself. Plan a reward for making it through work without smoking - rent a DVD? Have a bubble bath? Buy a favorite magazine? Do word finds or crossword puzzles Take a walk Go swimming Go bowling Argue with the old smoking you Read and post here You're doing great! Just a day or two more of this and you will feel much better. Just take it one day, one hour, one minute at a time. -aloha [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B]3/22/2007 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 83 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 3,320 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $564.40 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 11 [B]Hrs:[/B] 15 [B]Mins:[/B] 15 [B]Seconds:[/B] 52

Yes, nauseousness and tiredness are normal! Some people feel light headed too. Hang in there. Deep breaths help! Just try to get thru the workday and relax when you get home. Your quit is most important, make time for it first and you will get there! :) [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B]3/5/2007 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 100 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 2,500 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $1,055.00 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 12 [B]Hrs:[/B] 6 [B]Mins:[/B] 14 [B]Seconds:[/B] 20

Thanks Bobbi and all, I am doing it cold turkey. I have been thinking of it for months and the other night I just told myself that was it. I crumbled up any smokes I and said no more smoking. I am drinking lots of water and fruit juice. I have to be at work so i wish i could nap but i cannot. I now know that since I made it past day one i have to make it past day 2. I almost feel nauseous. Is this normal?

Like they said breath, lots of water, go for a walk if you can, come here and read, and if you can a nap. I like to run away to my bed when things get tense. Pace, call a friend, get an old paper or magazine and tear it apart. Just don't smoke and you will okay.
