I am sorry to hear that, Kassy. I, myself, certainly understand. You went Way longer than me. You should be proud of yourself. I bet the next time you try, that will be the time you succeed! Very Happy

Arrgh!

One of these days I'm hoping to try again.. In the meantime I'm trying to keep it to 5 a day, (cigs that is .. Laughing )

You'll do it too.. When you are really ready!

Maybe this will help when you want to cut down Riley, it's what I had to change to stick with the plan.

- Didn't smoke the 1st cig till I was up at least one hour, and had finished my coffee.

- When I had a phone call, I cleaned something while I talked, rather than just grabbing a seat and the dreaded cigs.

- When a craving hit, I would take 5 or 6 long, deep breaths; in through the nose, out through the mouth. Then brush my teeth and use mouthwash.. Sound like a PITA, but it got rid of the craving for a while.

- I actually rationed! 1 after my coffee + having been up at least an hour (the longer the better), two after dinner time + more coffee (or a glass of wine), another one late evening, and one before going to bed (which for me is about 4 a.m. (Embarassed)

Thanks, Kassy. Those are great tips. (I only smoke outside, not in my house, so the cleaning while on the phone doesn't work!) I will definitely try the tips! Great advice. Thanks again! Very Happy
