This time will be the charm

8 Replies

Hi All, I joined a couple of months ago thinking I would be well on my way to being a non smoker. Well I fell off the band wagon a day after my first post. But now I am 10 days a non smoker. I had a craving just a minute ago, my mind was replaying my old rationale for continuing to smoke. I will just take a few puffs, no one can quit cold turkey, this is easier. It had almost convinced me but there was nothing around for me to smoke. Well 10 days and counting. Next time my mind goes on auto pilot I will turn it off.
