The first day.

I was supposed to buy patches yesterday but ran out of time and money.  I got up thjis morning a little worried.  Slept in later than normal. packed my lunch box and left. armed only with a e cig. lots of food and water. its now about 6 pm and hanging in there. hopefully tomorrow will be easier.

Congrats on making the decision to quit!!!  Make sure you take advantage of all the advice on this site about reading and educating yourself on the battle with nicotine.  Also, I have had really bad cravings at night and this page has helped me so much.  There are so many people on here who have words of encouragement or just share the knowledge they have learned.  Take it day by day and remember you are strong enough!
