Day 4... Temper in check... Did an assessment for a workout program I have been wanting to start, 5 minutes long... Feeling ill and headachey right after. I'm sure it is because my cold is still lingering.. New plan is to walk 8 km a day, and start out slow with weights and stuff. Monday will hopefully be the new start date of the actual program. I really wish this cold would cease, as if I am not smoking I need somewhere to throw my frustrations. Not working alone this week, so I will fight hard to not be outside during all the smokebreaks. Expect this thread to fill over the next few days.

Having issues.

Not doing well... Seriously hating the quit... Hating the fact I'm so heavy, giving up good tasting bad food and smoking at the same time. Noone knows im$ quit, wife didn't even know I was smoking. Noone but me will be dissapointed if I crash and burn. Crap this is a tough day.

To quit, I don't have to do anything. I just remained seated as fellow workers all pulled out their packs, scanned remaining tobacco stick count, and purposefully marched outside. I will remain in this chair, scowling and angry, nervous and misunderstood, breathing and not coughing. Day 4 can bite me. Perhaps I'm feeling so glum and angered due to being not alone at work now. Hell week.. I will thrash you, break your knees and leave you a burning memory. I will be free...

Hi Viking, sorry to hear your having a bad day but they do pass i know because when i started my quit i had the most shit hit the fan days but for some unknown reason i fought everyone of them. Go for a walk that normally works. Drink plenty of water keep yourself busy too all of these will help. But most of all dont listen to mr nicodemon. Good luck and keep reading posts. Jacqui. Quit date: 10.2.12.

lol sorry for laughing (I have an odd sense of humour) but you knew it was coming and you can ride this!

It always bemused me that workers who smoked were legitamately allowed to leave the office and go for a chat and fag outside .. maybe for 10 minutes every couple of hours. If non-smokers left for a chat or a chocolate break all hell would break loose so maybe you should start a non-fag break and leave the premises for 5 or ten minutes.

Mondays are never great .. tomorrow will be better so hang in there x

Yep, hanging on to the very small thread I've got here. We work at a plant, which is half outdoors and no bosses over our shoulders... So it is a common site to see workers walking or standing with smokes in their mouths. Makes for a whole bunch of extra breaks too. I will be adding breathe easy breaks to my schedule as that seems like a wonderful idea! The anger has receeded for now.. Laugh as much as you like Suze, I'm trying hard to type nicely when I'm basically cursing like a trucker on the other side of the screen! It is kind of fun to hear some of the random meaningless words come out of my mouth in grumbles.. I think I''ve made up a new section for the dictionary already. Greasepainting monkey towel! Sorry to hear you had anger and bad days too fleetwood, but good on you for fighting the good fight! I'll be back when the fight gets tougher.

(((((((hugs)))))))) for Viking. Now I'm gonna kick your butt. You are doing so well, as Suze said you knew it was coming. Don't start feeling sorry for yourself cause that's when you will get the " I deserve 1 , I will feel so much better if I just have 1." You can and will get through this week, and when you do you will never want to do it again. I have faith in you, so give yourself a shake and face this head on, you can beat it.

Keeping strong. The couple hours of pain, depression, anger and wrongful thinking seem to have passed for now. Posting helps fer sure. I will not be beat this time. Very stoked to get in some serious shape to show off the new ink this summer. Thanks a bunch for being tough with me! I'd rather be bruised with happy lungs than the evil alternate!

Helmet on to protect the noggin as I keep moving forward and meeting every thing the nic throws at me head first.

5 hrs left of work, then workout, then sleep. 0n it.
