NOPE and I have officially hit my 24 hour smoke free mark!!!!

Made it work, thankful it was not a white knuckle moment. Drank my coffee and thought about my day. Thank you all for your words of encouragement. For now my quit is safe!!!! Will prep for the afternoon return home.

Congrats Dr. Phil, you have 1 day more then me under the belt but glad to know there is someone else that is close to my quit date. Kudos to both of use for seeking out Freedom.

Thanks all for your support. Today went off like a hitch. I am craving right now but there is not a thing in the world I can do about it, except ride it out. I am home and the closet store that is open is 20 mins away. If it were closer I might make a made dash to the store. The hardest time of the day for me will be first thing in the am and right after work, as that is the only time I smoke. Today twice during the course of the day (around 2:00) I thought about the Cigarette I would smoke afterschool, of course instantly I had to tell me self no. I felt so let down and disappointed. Twice from 2:00 to 3:00 that happened. I need to think of something to look forward to afterwork. I was really disappointed when I remember I could not smoke. I felt like a kid at Christmas that did not get the toy they wanted. Of course after school I had to get DS to the DMV to get his licenses and then get home to eat dinner and celebrate DS birthday. So I really did not have time to smoke anyway. If I had one I would found the time, but I did not so I just carried on. It is now 8:00 and I am getting ready to go to bed. I get up at 4:00 to get things done for the day. I fear that I will not get up as normal as I will not be motivated because, of course, the first thing I do when I get up is smoke. Here again I need to think of something to look forward to when I wake up. I bought sparkling mineral water at the grocery store on Sunday. They kind that I drank as a kid when we lived in Italy. So maybe I will think about pouring me a glass of that for my am wake up. I have been saving it for a crave. Today was an easy day by design. Tomorrow morning I know I will crave and I have to keep from caving in on the way to work and buying a pack. I do have some nicotine gum that I bought a while back, and I did chew a piece afterwork, not sure if that kept me from making a mad dash to the store. Cravings have not been bad. I am a closet smoker so I can maintain for a bit of time, but I do need to be on my guard for those uber stressful situations. 24 hours smoke free is around the corner!!!!

NOPE Arrived on the Freedom Train at 7:10 am today. I smoked my last one today at 7:10.....so not completely smoke free today, but my plan was to throw out whatever I had left when I arrived at work today, and so that has been done. No looking back only FORWARD & ONWARD!!!!!
