Ok for one I am not sure if I can blog this, if not sorry..

I was not raised to be a QUITTER, so therefore I am not going to look at this as Quitting smoking.. Honestly, with each Puff of a smoke your are slowly killing your self..  I am NOT quitting, I am Done Committing Suicide.

Thats all I am going to write on that.. hope how I feel does NOT get me in trouble, or offend anyone..

But as for today it was not all easy, got up at 5am got ready for work still ok, worked not thought about a smoke got a few tips on being smoke free from a co worker whom is 22 days free. got into car still ok.... came home and ok but hubbys room STUNK like cigs... and it make me sick.... YUK.... but he did air out the house and the house smelled GREAT but his room... so I shut his door and made it clear that he is not helping me by smoking..we work diff shifts so we have our own bedroom. thats good now, I am not traped in there with the smoke....

Hi baby blues, you've got the right attitude. This will get you far. 

You did great on your second day. Rinse and repeat. 

Whatever you do, stay busy. Continually change your routine. Your are beating this ugly addiction. 

Sounds like your co-worker friend may make a great quit buddy. Maybe you can exchange phone numbers for support? Just a thought.

You do not have to consider this quitting! You can consider it Starting!

Starting a new life of Freedom!

Starting to break the chains of addiction!

Starting to treat yourself better!

Starting to feel better!

Starting to smell better!

Add you own thoughts! Perhaps other would like to add theirs!

I hope you have done the reading previously linked for you.  It has been a huge help to everyone here!  Reading Allen Carr;s book is also a good crave buster, I found, as is reading the blog posts here.  You can pick up all kinds of good tips from others who are on this journey with you.

Stay committed! 

I will add my "Starting:"

Starting to be so proud of myself!

Keep up the good work!!  I know what mean about "quitting" but stopping killing ourselves is always a good thing!!  

When I first got to this site I was told that my quit is what I make of it. I chose to be positive, and it really helped me stay determained and commited.  

Like Nancy and Kim above, Allen Carr's book was a major help to me. Its hard to describe the difference it can make, so I hope you take the time to read it! 😃

You are doing great.  I am going to borrow Patty-Cakes Rinse and Repeat, that's awesome!  And I like your thoughts about not quitting and I love Tommys thoughts about Starting.  That's what this site is all about.  Somehow, one way or another, we all end up on the same page.  We do not want to Smoke!  Protect Your Start!
