Good morning all, 

 

So today is the day. I've been on Chantix a while now and its kicking in. I've had several good quits (a year +) but the Just One Monster gets me eventually. Dealing with it is going to be harder than the actual initial quit.

 

I'm looking forward to meeting all of you!

Hi @SavingMeFromMe so nice to meet you!!  Im a new quitter too, im just over a week using patches. Im wishing you every success and see you around on the boards!

Yeah im feeling good, i felt really anxious the first few days but that seem to have went away.  The only bad thing about that is i was so anxious I wasnt eating much, but now that has subsided im now HUNGRY HUNGRY HUNGRY!!!  But I found a bag of roasted and salted pumpkin seeds!  Ive never had them before, they are really scrumptious, i cant stop eating them! What about yourself, how are you getting on?

Welcome @SavingMeFromMe  You are doing a great thing by quitting smoking.

 

Sorry to hear about your past relapses but quitting for good and putting smoking behind you once and for all is worth the work.

 

Welcome, it is great to have you here.

Welcome aboard the Quit Train SavingMeFromMe.

 

Many of us had to back up and take another run at it before we really stuck the quit.  I was one of those people.  Finding this site made an incredible difference in making my last quit my last quit.

 

You are in the right place.  Enjoy the ride.

Hello @SavingMeFromMe - I am another that has tried to quit many times before.

This quit just feels different and I believe it is because of all the great people, information and support here on the train. 

All the best to you on your quit!

Welcome aboard @SavingMeFromMe! I’m glad that you have joined us. I personally would not have succeeded in my quit without the train! I’ll be quit for 2 years in March! 🙌 Even today I come here for inspiration and affirmation for my quit. Read everything and post, post, post about your quit. Use the 🆘 if needed and we will help you defeat that Just One Monster!

Im not much for pumpkin seeds but, oh man, sunflower seeds 😋🤤

 

Yesterday went great! I’m on Chantix plus it was a long busy day at work so I barely thought about it. I had a few cravings when I woke up, but I’m already hacking up some gunk and when I think about the stink of cigs, I get past the craving. Hope you’re doing well. Where do you live? Are you in England by any chance?

'Weegie is a slang term referring to people from Glasgow in Scotland, which is used as a noun or adjective. It is a contraction of the word Glaswegian, referring to people from Glasgow'.

 

Im in bonnie Scotland! Glad your first day went well, and good you were kept busy.  When I have a wee craving, i just say to myself 'i dont smoke' and goes away!  Im sure we all have wee things we say to ourself.  Delighted to see you and hear you are doing good, where abouts are you?

Hi SavingMeFromMe, Good to see you here on the train, and hope to see you around lots. All the best with your new quit. 
Stay determined!
