Oh the triggers... I am certainly not an authority on this but I go way out of my way to avoid those triggers. I have a enough during my daily routine that I can’t avoid. I most certainly don’t want to walk into any of them if I don’t have to. I try to the things that never involved smoking when I smoked. For example, go for a walk, have sex, take a shower and stay in the house just to name a few. These are all things that I do that did not involve smoking. My mind always tells me that a cigarette will make certain situation better. But I know this is not the case. This is just my addictive personality playing tricks on me. It’s cold, my ass hurts from driving, the person in front of me not using a turn signal, the radio signal sucks. Ahh, a cigarette will make it all better… Bullshit!! Last weekend was tough for me but I had to do it. My wife plays neighborhood tennis and I wanted join in on the spectator activities. It’s a good time, beer, friends, outside and food( everyone brings a covered dish of whatever food theme is pre-designated) Did I mention beer? It was a beautiful day weatherwise but this little activity used to involve a lot of smoking for me. I made it through relatively easily but I was thinking about it. Next time it will be easier. I drive for a living and I am on a time crunch. Talk about stress LOL. Granted, I am in and out of my truck several times a day but sometimes I find myself wanting to light up when I get into my truck, or do have time to smoke one before my next stop . Something I always did, all the time, every time. But even this is getting easier. I don’t find myself going for a cigarette as much anymore. It’s wonderful! Just keep in mind the thoughts will go away. They WILL go away. They always do, every, single, time... It gets easier… Cigarettes do nothing for us. They do absolutely nothing, NOTHING, except take your time, your money and your health??? It literally makes me sick to my stomach when I think about how much these things have taken from me over the years. They have taken my time, my money and my health.

Depends who you ask. Those potbellies go away when one lies on their back LOL.

Nope

You can do this Katie. A lot of people rootin for ya.

Negative nine

I had the flu bug during Christmas. I couldn’t do Christmas with my family, sucked. Fever, body ache, the whole nine…It came on quick, and went away quick. Really quick, I could feel it coming on and I could feel it going away. It lasted about 3 1/2 days. Sickest I’ve been in 10 years. It’s what prompted me to quit smoking. The clatter in my lungs and the cough were terrible. If you start running a fever be sure and drink plenty of fluids. You won’t be hungry but you need to drink plenty of carbs. If you become dehydrated you’ll really be in trouble. In my case if I can’t break a fever with over-the-counter meds it’s time to go to the doctor. At any rate, don’t lose your quit. It gets easier.

KATIE!! You can do this. Somethings that works for me that may work for you. I can, I just don’t want to. Tell me I “can’t“ do something, well you know.. Do things you did when you smoked but didn’t smoke when you did them. Get on YouTube and find Allen Carr’s book. Take your quit extremely serious, your life depends on it. You have to find what works for you and use it. They do nothing for you. They take your money, your time and your health. Stick close to the board. Let people know what you’re feeling. Not only does it help you, It helps us as well.
