no excuses !

Day # 47 and I had a good start first week ! I was a pack a day and would have been 47 packs. So here I am trying to justify the one ciggarett a day i've been smoking half in the morning and half in the evening for the last 2 weeks . When the wife gets home she asks how did you do with your smoking today I always answer GOOD ! So feeling guilty now day 4 without that one cigaret. Got to stay focused I really want this

Hi sonny. If you are having 1 a day, you are still smoking. That one can lead to 2 and 3 and before you know it you will reward yourself with another and that will be the end of your quest. Hope you can come clean. Feel free to lean on the quitters on this site and be glad you can because no one else will understand your plight and nor will they let you get away with just one or 2 a day... let alone lying about your success. Be true to yourself.

Hi Sonny...keep at it you are doing well. Soon you will be able to deal with that craving in the morning and evening when you keep reminding yourself that it really is not worth it...maybe set a date for when you will definitely NOT have that one cigarette or that one puff...it's a slip up, not a failure, but you have to remain vigilant...it's a monster, and the cigs are manufactured to be as addictive as possible so that our money flows away from us to the evil tobacco lords!!:) do they deserve yr money and health do you think? Keep at it! I am finding it pretty hard but i have to congratulate myself and look to the future as a healthier and happier person...

Thanks Red-67 and katiekeen 3 days without that 1 cigarette still tough Thanks for your input
