Diary of a quitter - Day One

ToTheLove

(Yes, I kinda stole the idea from ellelit, thanks girl!)

Anywho. This is really day half considering I did smoke until 3:00. (Actually that was only an hour and a half ago) But I've decided NOT so smoke another pack. So.. I've smoked my last cigarette, people! FOREVER!

I have mixed feelings about how I'm going to handle the ride home. On one hand I'm really excited to test myself as that's one of my biggest triggers, and on the other, i'm scared crapless. :laugh: I've told everyone. My mom, my cousin, my boyfriend, all of you and the Myspace world. No way I can really go back on this now, huh?!

I think I'm going to take my car and get it super cleaned out and get all the ashy-messyness out of there. That'll make me feel good because I'll know that it won't just go right back to that in a couple of days!

Oh, my boss said he'd buy me a pair of running shoes if I made it to June 2nd. How nice is that?

Anyway, at this point I'm still SUPER excited about my new life change. By this time tomorrow I'm sure I won't be quite as excited :laugh:

Peace out!

:flowerforyou: Good luck! Quitting smoking is one of the hardest things I ever did. There will be times when you will fantasize about tackeling a white-haired grandma for her cig.....But remeber......It's probably a cheap one any way!

Hey good for you. You should reward yourself by taking the money you would have spent on those nasty little demons and put it away for one month. At the end of the month, not only will you not have smoked, but you have some extra cash to reward yourself. They are so expensive now, you might have more money saved up than expected. Good luck.

Hey! I made it through day 3 and fell off the wagon I would say from experience that day 3 is probably the hardest...lol I've quit several times..once for 10 months! (while I was pregnant) Bottom line is this, do not smoke..if u have "just one" u'll be right back to square one. I'm planning giving it another go the day after tomorrow, so maybe we can be quit buddies! lol Good luck and hang in there, it does get rough, but it gets better and in a week you'll feel like a million bucks!
