Dont give up on Giving up

I enjoyed smoking for 40 + years while intermitently trying to quit many times. I am on patches again now and after hyponotherapy I have been a non-smoker for three days!!! I also started regular exercise, and calorie controlled healthy eating on 1st January. It is hard, but I am proud of being smoke free for 3 days, and it seems to be getting a little easier with each new day. Patches are keeping me sane. When I want a cigarette I tell myself "no, I survived without it yesterday I don't need it now". I am still drinking coffee, just without the cigarette. Deep breathing helps.
