Fantastic Mac, congratulations on getting past hell week, the hardest week of them all!

It's totally normal Tina, trust me. Most of us experience this especially during the first week. Let yourself nod off and let your body start healing

Yay Tina, just remember that with each craving you beat you get stronger! I just kept telling myself 'this too shall pass' over and over again and it did

It's totally normal Tina, our bodies are busy working hard at righting all the wrong done by smoking so listen to your body. If you're tired, rest, hungry, eat, etc. It's only temporary so hang in there. You are doing great! You'll get past today just like you got past yesterday

Yay angeleek, 12 weeks quit is fantastic!

Snobby neighbor opened our package Snobs

Prisoners aboard, unfortunately some escaped Board

That's awful, have you tried instacart for delivery service? They're running a couple days behind but have never let me down

With delivery service it's easy to get what I need, even with a flip phone lol

Well done @AK47, wanted to let you know about our tickers https://www.quittrain.com/tickers/. Its a great way to watch all the time, money saved and cigarettes not smoked add up. I loved watching mine Just fill in your quit info then click save, then pick the one you like and paste it into your signature.

Stomach topples over pants still Still

Smokers hate losing one of their own Tina. You're his partner in crime so to speak. Try explaining to your husband that him smoking in front of you and leaving his cigarettes around are jeopardizing your quit. Then ask him to smoke outside or in the garage/man cave

This is so true Tina!

Ask hubby to go smoke somewhere else, out of sight, out of mind......

Welcome aboard igamoo, and congrats on taking back your life!

Busy your mind and get it off the thought of smoking. Go somewhere you never smoked, even if its just another room. After I bought my first brand new car in 2007 I swore I wouldn't smoke in it so when I quit in 2016 if I had a really bad crave that even my JAC wasn't working for I would take a drive and I instantly forgot about smoking because it just wasn't something I did in my car. I also kept busy playing games. We have a great games forum to keep your mind busy so check it out, you may find something fun there

Take the yet off Tina, you haven't lit up. period. Be super proud of yourself, not only are you doing a great thing for yourself and your body but you are showing your husband that it's doable too

When I had bad cravings I used my JAC (jillars air cigarette). I just pretended I was holding a cigarette in my fingers and then went through the motions of "smoking" it. Some people use cut straws, pens, even licorice. It worked REALLY well at tricking my mind into thinking it was getting the real thing

You can get past it guttie, we've all been where you are so we're proof! AND each crave you beat makes it weaker and you stronger, you're doing great!

Happy birthday again Bakon, don't work too hard chasing down those law breakers!

I'll say 1 is the lie, just cause you're too nice to have gotten a negative mark

3 is the lie @reciprocity. We do have a motorhome but we didn't sell it unfortunately before the lockdown and now all the campsites are closed probably through summer you're up piggy

Welcome aboard Suzi and congratulations on deciding to take back your life. This is a really old thread so when you get a chance why don't you introduce yourself to everyone in the Introduction forum https://www.quittrain.com/forum/3-introductions-about-us/ We have a great group here and we love supporting our fellow quitters

Great post Kate, I remember when you posted about that last year and am so glad that after a few restarts you are on your forever quit
