My head is playing those mind games with a vengeance now: trying to tell me that one won't hurt, that I could control it, why give up something you enjoyed. These tricks are way worse that the cravings, which are manageable. Approaching week 3, I realise I am still very vulnerable.
Anyway, clinic yesterday had normal CO reading of 3ppm as expected. CO detectors at work and home show nothing so I'm putting the unusual high reading last time down to an aberration.

yeah week 3 is when you have to dig in a bit. I remember losing a quit because I decided I'd quit smoking successfully so it was Ok to have one as I only wanted ONE. How mad is that logic!
There is no such thing as one cigarette or being in control, we're addicts.
Just keep focussing on the fact that you're making the right choice and a happy smoke free future will be yours. The best prize in the world and you don't even have to buy a lottery ticket. You're a guarenteed winner as long as you say NOPE.
Taking one at a time Skiddaw. Not too bad with the craves I can anticipate: the ones that hit me unawares get to me though. So far have faced them down ok
