How are you today @darcy?

I be stoned

First on race day

You are still here darcy, and that's a clear sign that you want this. Don't sabotage it by a few bad days. We've all had them, even never smokers have days on end that are bad and never think hmmm maybe I should take up smoking. I promise you, just hang in there because it gets so much better with time quit.

That's looks great @reciprocity, sounds like a very productive day 😊

Heck yea we're walking with you for as long as you need us 🤗 Tomorrow is a whole new day and you my dear are going to be so proud of yourself for getting past this gnarly crave and keeping your quit. I'm sure proud of you 😊

And if you want to "smoke" along with your guests while keeping that awesome quit might I suggest the wonderful tasting JAC, it's 100% pure wonderful oxygen, just pretend you're holding an actual cigarette in your fingers and then literally go through the motions of "smoking" it. It worked so good at tricking my mind into thinking it was getting the real thing so maybe it will do the same for you too?

Darcy, you are bigger than any crave! You are the boss, just think how awful its going to be to have to start ALL THE WAY BACK to day 1! You have four fabulous smoke free months and I bet any amount of money that your guests would love to be where you are now. You posted your SOS for a reason, because you don't want to lose this quit! Fight for it because you are worth it...

What does your vet think egg shells will do for him? Just out of curiosity....

I wasn't aware that they were seeing as there's so many holes in a raincoat Why does autocorrect keep putting words in my mouth?

The good thing about NRT's Linda is that you can stop using them at any time so if you're thinking it's not right then try cold turkey again or another nrt. I will tell you that there is not one nrt on the planet that will relieve all the symptoms of quitting. So if you're looking for an easy way out there just isn't one. Except maybe for your state of mind. Have faith in yourself that you can do it. We all did and you can too. Read the thread Johnny (above) posted for you. Check out all the pinned threads in each forum. They all contain info to help you get your quit 😊

Where's the corned beef dinner?

That's crazy that your vet would recommend egg shells or chicken bones @notsmokinjo, egg shells can be sharp going in and coming out and i would be scared to give any of my animals those. But then again I don't give either pet people food.

Oh no @notsmokinjo, I think we need another poll on who WAS an inny but isn't anymore! 🤣

Welcome aboard our train full of quitters Linda. Sorry about your relapse, hopefully now that you've found us we can help you get your forever quit. We have a lot to do here from educating yourself about our addiction to socializing to get your mind off the misery for a while so be sure to check out all our various forums. We also have quite a few members who used the patches to quit. Just make sure you're using them correctly. Nicotine takes about three days to leave your system so at five days quit you already had the nicotine out of your system. The relapse was your brain throwing a tantrum to get what it wanted, nicotine!

I can't promise that........

I'm so glad to hear that Michelle Those are some numbers already aren't they?! I used to love logging on each morning my whole first year to see what my numbers were and was/am amazed at the amounts of time, money and cigarettes not smoked which I never paid attention to WHILE I was smoking! Glad you're already feeling much better Michelle, and you're not alone because you have us

Hey Michelle, how are you feeling now? I think the reason you're craving so hard is because your surgery is over. The junkie in you is thinking that vaping will be your reward. In actuality, it isnt. In fact it will undo all that hard work your body has done to get rid of the chemicals you've been putting in it. You're healing will almost instantly slow to a crawl as you take in all that nasty nicotine into your month and a half clean lungs. I don't think you want to go there again, especially since you posted an SOS. These craves are a temporary nuisance but a smoking related illness may not be.....

Maybe I should see a menu first before I worry about delivery?

You'll need to ship it here, is it free delivery?

Thanks, should I make sure it's a night you're cooking?

Thanks but can I take a rain check?

Still in the kitchen at work mac?

Watching A Simple Plan, really good movie 😊

Keep on the sunny side
