| Day 1 here I've decided to make today day 1 of quitting smoking. I'll check on here periodically and give updates. I have found this board useful for stopping drinking, so I am going to do the same thing for smoking. |

Cooperate in what way? I can't think of how weather would have anything to do with it, unless you're going camping. That would be hard. Where in Portland do you live? | |

| Cooperate as in, if it is pleasant weather I am more apt to be out enjoying it, rather than cooped up and bored and craving a smoke. |

| Well, I broke down and had three cigarettes last night. I have smoked four cigarettes total since Wednesday. I'm newly on the drinking wagon also, so it's been a little tough. I didn't smoke today and I'm still going strong. Not perfect, but I'll get there. Thanks for your support everybody. |

| Well, I didn't smoke Sunday and had a cigarette last night. The lesson I have learned is that I should carry nicorette with me. This is harder than I thought, but I will make today day #1 again and get some nicorrette. |

| Steam, I have tripped, fallen, stumbled you name it. I just keep getting back up...that for me is the trick. Keep at it, its worth it. |

| same here.. Actually I'm within my first hour of not smoking. Does that count? Also I am an alcoholic and I've been sober for 18 years with meetings. Now I need smoking meetings. Best of luck and DONT BEAT YOUSELF up if you falter - thats what the disease wants you to do. sodium |

| Well, I'm finally doing it. Day 8 without a puff. The psychical part is getting much easier, and I am working actively to convince myself that I don't want a cigarette. So far so good. I can't wait to get to 3 weeks. |
