New Start To April
 
I have now stopped smoking for 2 months, 2 days, 12 hours, 34 minutes, 58 seconds. That translates into 720 cigarettes NOT smoked, for a savings of $270.29!

Is true...but I need to fess up. I had a great time in Atlanta this past week...but yesterday during a layover in Kansas City I was hungry, tired, and wired....no drinking but I picked up two butts off the sidewalk and smoked them which started and ended with two full cigarettes when I got home. I haven't bought a pack and I am committed to absolute nicotine abstinence. I went back on the Chantix I have about a month left. The puff did set up the following smokes and only by getting sleep, eating, taking all my meds, and recommitting to today have I stopped. So I am going to keep my counter going since I didn't buy a pack. Need to stay close to my support and what has worked. :thanks Gregory

good to be back on track....went back on Chantix after using it for 2 months, then not for a week, so back on it for 3 days. Doing much better with it this time around because I'm not drinking alcohol, and overall 100% more healthy.

Today has been smooth...trying to take care of basic needs is tough and can be overwhelming. NTAP

Good day to be free from nicotine. Many mornings have slight urges that last but a few seconds. It bugs me more than anything, irritating, but I have ingrained the thinking action to recognize it and let it go.

Beautiful spring day today. I might treat myself to a milkshake later. I have an appointment at the VA concerning my diabetes.

Doing well this morning but nicotine and cigarettes have been right in my face since smoking dreams this morning, to as I was getting fresh air someone yelled out if I wanted one, to as I was talking with a smoker another smoker came up and interrupted our conversation and asked her for a cigarette. Surfing SR, playing board games, listening to sporting news. Some sun ---broken clouds--good morning to walk downtown to my appointment. Starting a new thread soon see if more SR members and visitors would post.
