Perhaps ask hubby to not smoke around you  - and to keep his cigarettes and lighters out of your sight.

I think we all felt nervous and excited - you are entering uncharted waters.  I hope you have done the reading, have made your list of reasons for quitting to keep with you - and your list of activities to distract you.  Have you bought some sugarfree gum and mints?  Perhaps an adult coloring book or jigsaw/crossword puzzle book?

Get ready, get set..................................

You got this.  Also if your husband can see you as a great example of feeling better and free from the slavery of cigareets he may follow suit sooner than you think.  Keep this excited feeling in mind when cravings hit

Thanks I have done the readings and read a lot of blogs, I have mints and the adult coloring book is a great idea I will get one today. Hopefully my husband will stop smoking soon, he is a recovering alcoholic with one year clean and sober.

Remember to take baby steps.  One day at a time.  One craving at a time. Educate yourself by reading the suggested material so that you know what to expect. You can do this.  Come here blog, vent, scream.  We will hear you.
