Drink lots of water.
Go get some gum and chew chew chew.
Go grab a straw, cut it the size of a cigarette and smoke it.
(Yep it sounds funny, but, inhale and exhale like you were smoking you will realize a lot has to do with oral habits
go to www.whyquit.com for more incentive
This ebook pdf from that site helped me.

exactly!! bubble gum worked best for me, and there's these weird "warming" cough drops that were kind of tingly that i got at stop n shop and they helped a lot too. crunchy things like dry cereal and hard fruits helped too. at night, sorbet was good too. try going onto quitnet.com and talk to some people on there. there's TONS of "quitters" on there, much more than MFP, so it's good for emergencies like these cuz you get better and more responses.
GOOD LUCK!! we're all here for you, and just STAY STRONG!!!0 -
day 75 :bigsmile:
and it's awesome
Do you realize you are head toward 100 days! Of course, it is a one day at a time process, but I'm sure you have thought about it. Keep up the good work.0 -
Well this gives me great inspiration to quit! I tried twice already this year and it only last 2-3 days, but seeing everyone on here doing so well gives me hope that I can do it too!0

hows everyone doing?

Peter - Free and Healing for Five Months, Seven Days, 19 Hours and 33 Minutes, while extending my life expectancy 13 Days and 16 Hours, by avoiding the use of 3945 nicotine delivery devices that would have cost me $1,429.58.
heheh, love the way some quit smoking programs dispaly the info....... "nicotine delivery devices"0 -
Yay Craft!! Tomorrow will be day 100 for me.... It's ALL good!!!0

It's been 2 months and 13 days since I quit cold turkey. :smokin: I've saved $403.00 and would have smoked 1,345 cigarettes if I had not quit. Feel great!
I use a free iphone app that tracks all this for me called Quit N Tell.

Last night I found out that someone screwed up some important data in my department. Needless to say, I spazzed out. I realized I couldn't smoke, drink (only on weekends) or eat any junk food. So I went home, turned up my iPod, cooked a pot of red beans, and washed a load of laundry while singing like I was on stage. This morning I woke (extra early) with a plan to recover the data and today has been good. My point is, things happen and we can't run to our vices to pacify ourselves.
If this would have happened before Feb. I would have smoked a half a pack, had a few beers and crushed a bag of chips. I'm pretty proud of myself. Growth rocks!
Just wanted to share.0 -

hey everybody! just seeing how everybody's doing
i'm going to niagara falls this weekend, and i'm excited to see how the 7 hour drive is going to be WITHOUT a cigarette craving! i would always go crazy on vacations cuz my family didn't know i smoked. i was constantly sneaking off somewhere to smoke, and when i wasn't smoking, i was THINKING about sneaking off somewhere. it's going to be nice not to think of crazy excuses to ditch the family every few hours lol
one cool thing about this Niagara falls trip.....i went last summer and it was when i was at my HEAVIEST. i'm really excited to take pictures and compare it to the LAST time0 -
Nice on the Niagara Falls trip, we love it up there. You may still want to ditch the family every few hours though. :laugh:
I am *thinking* August 1 may be a good day to quit.... no parties or trips planned for August, the first week of the month at work is normally calm. I am going to check out whyquit.com and also the iphone app, does anybody else have any other web site suggestions?0 -
