moonmen17 "...when you come to the fork in the road take it." Yogi Berra Today is day 42 of not smoking for me!!! I absolutely feel more energy even though I am using the nicorette gum. I have put on some weight, about 12 or 14 lbs. I am going to try and eat more fruit. I have been eating a lot of pie, ice cream and donuts. I don't drink as much coffee as I used to which was easily 6 or 7 cups a day without thinking about it too much and then puffing on one cigarette after another. ugghh. I cannot believe I really did that to myself. I am not reacting so much to the anxiety I tried to ease with smoking and I am feeling mostly happy today. I also feel supported on this website. Thank you. moonmen17
