I went for a meal with a group of friends. Only one of them smoked. I felt abit sorry for her going out smoking by herself but then I decided its her choice.
After the meal I craved really badly. But then we did a picture posing round for the cameras and my mind was soon taken off the cravings.
I had a few drinks and I survived.
Im proud I didnt give into the demon

A night out early on in your quit is a tough test - did it this time and it wasn't too bad - but a meal as well really will test you 'cos what did we do after eating? Yep, smoke.
Ive got major cravings this morning. Ive put on a patch and started nomming my chocolate mice.
I kept the patch on all last night and had a really nice dream. It was very detailed. So Im going to keep wearing my patches at night until I might get nasty dreams.
Ive still got some cola cubes to help me today too

Lol, well if they give you nice dreams that's fab!!
They only say "vivid" on the packet so maybe you're lucky and you get the good ones
Good on you Sammi!! You can do this...falling off the wagon is not an option for you because I would miss your posts. They have made me chuckle over the last 3 days!!
Kat mentioned it in a post to Sophie last night but if you want some motivation go onto You Tube and search for "Thanks Tobacco - you killed my Mom". I watched it last night and as usual Kat's advice is spot on!!!
Keep going Sammi. It will get easier although I can't comment on the "Lady Pains" :eek:
I know a few people who've decided to quit but have ended up not being able to have a good drink because, understandably, they avoided going out for the first few months and the alcohol=smoking trigger didn't go away.
I would be very cross right now if I wasn't able to go out and have alcohol without thinking about fags, so I just forced myself to get through those nights early on. It was a bit rubbish to begin with, but now it's so normal to be part of the "no smoking crew" and watch the smokers go out for their ciggies!
If you can nail it now you will find boozey nights out much more pleasant without those dirt cancer sticks! x
I used to get the worsed hangovers and smoking made me feel sick. Its a shame that they dont make you feel sick every time you smoke
Drink water before you go to bed hun
But now you're a non-smoker you won't get as many!!
And making you feel sick? Like I said I smoked like a chimney when I'd had a few, and the "last one" (usually 2 if I'm honest) before I went indoors has made me be sick more than once - but it always seems like such a good idea when you're lighting it :S
Nearly at the end of the working day. Cinema tonight! Going to see the new star trek with Dad, so another non smoking place yay
