September 4, 201411 yr The main thing to remember is it gets easier, even if you feel like its tough, it gets easier. And what you're doing is a really good idea.

Today I was in bed almost all day and slept a lot. A lot hahah. Thanks for your advice and support Jackie!
September 5, 201411 yr Author Hi! Each day has been so different. Today I woke up with an awful headache and a lot of cravings!
September 5, 201411 yr haha Bakon, donuts?? Embrace the cliche much :) Nat, Craves are just thoughts of smoking my lovely. That's ok, we remember we smoked and then we remember we are clever enough to not do that anymore! xx

Chocolate donuts! :) Yes, I had built my life around smoking schedules, now I´m feeling confused.
September 5, 201411 yr Yeah, I totally get that. The confusion eases as soon as you start putting your newer "new" in place. So morning coffee and quit train, replaces the cig (also I would sit in a different room to start). Everyone loves donuts tho. x
September 5, 201411 yr There is no downside to donuts. Gods morning gift Geeze, surely God's Morning Gift isn't donuts. Don't get me wrong, donuts are perfectly fine but..."God's Morning GIFT " ??? I am shocked, Bakon. Shocked. Glad you are hanging with the quit, Nat....it will get easier. Please don't worry. Please, please hang with it. You are going to love your new freedom.
September 5, 201411 yr Author LOL The donuts have been a really popular topic :D So switching things Marti? I kind of started doing that, drinking my coffee in a new "I don´t smoke mug". Sounds silly, but it helps.
September 5, 201411 yr One of the best things I have learned by quitting smoking is how to change and this has bled into all parts of my life. How to change and groove on the good foot. Change with Grace. Changing to make myself a better person, a happier person, a more grateful person, a Clearer person, a more honest person. A more compassionate person for sure. I used to really hated Junkies, Still kinda do only now with compassion. They made me really mad pissing away their lives. I even threw Tim Hardin out of my house for shooting up in my bathroom. Very likely, a smoke was dangling from my lips at the time. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2RrRajjlo6M b Dylan once called him “the greatest songwriter alive” and Joe Strummer regarded him as a “lost genius of music”. Yet when Tim Hardin died in 1980, aged just 39, the world barely raised an eyebrow. His best known songs, If I Were a Carpenter and Reason to Believe, have been covered by a veritable Who’s Who of artists, among them Johnny Cash, Robert Plant, Rod Stewart and Joan Baez. It was only last year, I realized I should have been looking in the mirror.
September 7, 201411 yr Geeze, surely God's Morning Gift isn't donuts. Don't get me wrong, donuts are perfectly fine but..."God's Morning GIFT " ??? I am shocked, Bakon. Shocked.
