Eating out of control
Day 53. Can't seem to stop eating in the evenings. I should go do something instead of sitting in front of the tv but I'm exhausted at the moment. Not sleeping well, moody, coughing, major skin breakouts, blah, blah, blah. I know a smoke won't fix it so I'm not really tempted. Life just seems to have become miserable over the past 3 weeks. Need to regain some control over my life. Not happy Jan!

Hi NowaNonSmoker,
I am so understanding this,Are you shore your not reading my mind!lol
I think the day 50's are the hardest, They wrote on here that the 6 week mark was a test, but I think its more week 7- the day 50's and onwards. I am so looking forward to hitting day 60 to get period this behind me.
I too am going through what you are, I have the killer blind pimples ( and Im normally not a pimple person ), Moody as anything, everything annoys me at the moment, I just want to be my self, but that's not happening,Ive always got some-one in my face..I just want to be alone, have some ME time and it's soo hard..
I don't mind the coughing, it;s settled down a bit and I see that as a good sign.
I'm on holidays next week, so im planning to get back on top of my life, get some serious exercise in and march toward day 60, and then Im hoping it will settle down.
Good luck buddy, stay positive ( and sometimes that is hard ) and take care, Your not alone xoxoxo

Somebody opened a Lolly shop in my local area. How silly are they? Or is it me that's silly? I ended up with a giant bag of snakes and a giant bag of choc buds and some other items, it cost me $30, i just can not believe i spent $30 on lollies. I am only on day 26. The walking helps ease the guilt a little though.

I think that a little bit of extra weight is really not the end of the world, get through this then concentrate on getting your weight back to what your happy with.

Only day 26 Vanessa !!!! That is a great achievement don't sell yourself short well done.

phew it's not just me. I'm day 51 and have been ttravelling along pretty well, but today and yesterday am eating non stop (and yucky stuff..fatty mc fat fat) and thinking about cigarettes...I know I don't want one but the little voice that hasn't really bugged me since the first week is there saying one won't hurt, you've gone so long now that you could just have one..*%$! liar!! Stay strong everyone, try and see the positive and remember how strong we have all been to take even one step on the long hard road to quitville and don't give up!!xo
So good to know I'm not alone in this. Thanks for all your support guys. xo
