I feelt the need to join a stop smoking forum today, cose i feelt the crawings hit me especially hard.

Day 1-5 I had mouth blister , dissyness and a mock cold with dry mucus membranes all over yes ewwwe + the mad cravings.

Now at day 7 im doing alright although since ive run out of money and coffee im craving a lot more then normal, i really need them coffee kicks.

I crave a cupple of times a day normally, always after ive eaten or when im having tea.

Im glad ive not given in and had any ciggies, thought i wouldnt panic if i did.

Have you guys all noticed how much more everything tastes?!!!

i cant have much salt/sugar these days cose it becomes too much

Hi Psilome,

Congratulations on your no smoking campaign, I use to drink about 6 to 8 cans of Coca Cola a day, and since I stopped smoking I have switched to Coffee. The Coca Cola doesn't taste the same as before which is a good thing as I always use to smoke when drinking it also, so I broke probably my worst habit as well.

So yes, there are quite alot of foods that I can taste the salt and / or nuts in now and there are alot of foods that I now dislike.

But there are plenty of foods that I still like, McDonalds, Burger King, Pizza Hut and the list goes on... :D

YAY therse hope for me yet then! :p

Its a dubble edged sword that i wont go off mcdonalds, i wouldnt mind if i did since its so expensive and so easy to get :rolleyes:

but im glad i wont go off everything, i find myself loving sour stuff especially these days, i always have but its even more pleasurable now.

Im having a hard time with coke aswell, but coffe sertainly does hit the spot :D
