On my fifth day of being an Ex...

Greetings from China!

This is my 5th day of being an Ex. Perhaps due to the hectic travelling, I didn't feel as bad as I'd expect earlier. Or maybe it was due to the medication I take--I'm taking Chantix prescribed by my doctor.

I just traveled to Xi'an from Beijing last night. M n@ was right that it used to be the case that people can smoke anywhere. Now it's getting much better in Beijing where smoking is banned in all public facilities. But in Xi'an, it is still the case, people even smoking in elevators...

Personally, I do not feel much craving as of now, sometimes just feel I need something in between my lips or in my hands, so I just chew a gum to keep my lips busy. It does feel great without the stinky smoking smell.

I understand I still have a long way to go...this is just a beginning of a new lifestyle and habit-forming process. I must work hard toward the change process...

Thank you for everyone's support,

Greg, from Xi'an, China
