Good to see you changed your signature! Positive thinking, you can do this, the "down" times will pass. and after that there will be only "up" times. Stay Strong! eat some sweets, chew some gum, drink some water. whatever its takes, just get through it!
I know it is quite a challenge ... I thought about smoking all the time when I used to smoke, like ... when is my next break so that I can have a smoke.
The first couple of days after I stopped smoking, I just told myself I will ,survive' it not having a smoke right now and another one is ,I don't NEED one'. I am aware that it does sound absolutely ridiculous but I got through it ... and now 20 days without a ciggie
Wondering if my patch not working right. Had a shower on with it this morning and have an idea its moved so maybe some of the stuff on it was washed away.
Not giving up though, will just eat everything and everything in sight instead.
You can do it just keep moving forward. Your appetite should settle down after awhile. Cigarettes are actually an appetite suppressant, once you get off them you feel ravenous for a few weks, at least I did. Then it calms down. Try and keep some healthy snacks available if weight is an issue or resolve to move more lol. I now walk 4 miles nightly and work out 4 to 5 times a week. It really helps me !!
