April 6, 20188 yr Congratulations on reaching the mid-way point to a full year quit JB! This is a big milestone so be sure to go celebrate it today in some special way. Strating tomorrow, you will be on the downhill side of getting to the Lido Deck
April 6, 20188 yr Thank you. Last night though I got like this weird crave where i could almost taste that first cigarette out of a new pack. My second thought was, "It will pass here in a moment". Now folks, i try not to encourage other bad habits, however, sometimes when i "treat" myself to something like another pair of shoes I cannot live without, my thought process is often "I have saved more than that by not smoking so screw it". Often I still would like to smoke but figure, no need to ruin a solid quit.

April 7, 20188 yr Congrats Jetblack on the six months. I remember when I stopped smoking you were at your 3 month mark and having some concerns with quitting and craves at that time. To be honest your posts at the time created some fear in me for the 3 month mark but I thank you for those posts at that time. It created in me a desire to prepare for that 3 month mark and it was a big help. I got through that third month because of that and have a good concept of the problems of month 3 which hopefully I will post later, anyway again thanks for your posts and your honesty it helped -- congrats and keep it up.

Martian - Well shoot, I hope it wasn't discouraging. In my case, i was rummaging some old magazines for ads and of course every other page in the mags was about tobacco. I guess it just triggered a crave. But if YOU are starting to struggle, power through it. It may even take a couple days but after that, the final big battle is OVER. 4 hours ago, reciprocity said: ^^^^ Go for the shoes ................................ NOT the smokes BTW ..... Bakon loves shoes but NOT smokes The shoes, yes. By a company called "Born". One model is BOC (Born Concept). They were listed as "pre-owned" but they were brand spankin new when i received them. $60 sandals for $20. AND, very comfortable for a heel. I am sure Bakon would understand the value of comfy heels.
