I think there is a trap that sometimes people who are trying to rid themselves of a bad habit fall into. That's thinking "oh I messed up so I might as well have another and start again tomorrow."
Yup, that's me and chocolate :(
Be brave Wendy, you'll be fine! Fingers crossed. |

Look at it this way, Wendy. When you first started smoking, you didn't pick up your first cigarette and love it. You actually had to get used to smoking, practice smoking if you will.
Now you have to get used to not smoking. You have to practice not smoking. If at first you don't succeed, try, try again. You've really done a great job so far and everyone says the first month is really difficult. You can do it!

Aww, don't be so hard on yourself. It wasn't an entire cigarette, and quitting can be very hard!
I'm glad you're still on this and won't let this tiny incident get in your way. And it's great that you didn't like it!
GO WENDY! I think that you have a great attitude, I'm very sure you're going to make it :o)

Well done peewee :)
Good luck to all those quitting the cigs. You can do it!!!
Think this is my 7th day with out the little devils.
Think the first 2 days were the worst. At the end of the first day I just rocked back and forth in want and lust of a cig! On the second day I was about ready to take hostages. But now I am beginning to see and feel the benefits of a none smoker. When I smoked I couldn't even run 5 miles, I still can't but my lungs are free of smoke! I jest but am proud of myself, it's not easy. So good luck peeps.
It can be done. :) |

Aww Missmoo,
Thanks so much for your kind words. It's good to know someone else is going through this with me. heehee My 7th day is tomorrow! I actually feel really good today and yesterday wasn't so bad craving wise. Today is really weird, I haven't had a craving AT ALL! That manky cig the other day must have changed something in my head.
Although I am having a good day y'day and today doesn't mean I will not face hard times but this thread has really helped. Even though I am not on here all day long it's still in the back of my mind that you guys are all here showing your support and it really means ALOT!!!
So, big pat on the back for us (newbie) non-smokers! :)
BTW Kayte, you speak so much sense! thankyou! |
