DAY 3 is hell. No way under it, over it, around it, just one way and that's through it. This is for me where I hope it gives it it's best shot. Physical, psychological, whatever. It's hard cold turkey for sure. Really hard.
Every fibre in my being is screaming for a cigarrette. My mind is suggesting it's not the right time (never will be), or I can't concentrate and have that report to get finished etc. I can feel myself getting much fatter (after 3 days??) Having a smoke will make eeevrything better. Right?
Wrong. Not this time old friend. You've promised me that before and things do not get better. Screw you. I'm done with your tricks. Try again tomorrow.
I claim today.

Good going mister, what I did in the early days was let the crave come... Feel it, for what it is. Really will that crave to do it's worst....to hurt you as much as it can. And at it's very peak...concentrate on what physically that crave actually truly feels like... Look it right in the eyeball and see how pathetic and weak that monster is and laugh at it's pathetic arse.
Worked every time... Sure I learnt it from the Allen Carr easy book. Once you start it becomes quite fun kicking it's sorry arse.
I feel exactly the same everything inside me wants a cigarette right now but we can't and I won't allow you to do so
I feel fat and I'm a 6ft 1 fairly slim built guy - been stuffing my face for days geeze - thankfully had a busy day work wise and going to chill tonight.

Good post, you sound very assertive, way to go laddie. You're a star
It can be monstrously hard at the outset, but you can do it. It will get easier. Get righteously angry at this feckin' habit that has you in such thrall, the anger will galvanise you to keep going. How very dare it make you feel this way? Kick it into touch!
Cheers for the support H :D. The forum is really helping, and i'm feeling in control this time. I hate to be too optomistic, but I'm in the right place mentally, and doing it for the right reasons this time. Pretty sure that will make a difference.
