Keep up with it and keep coming here to check in, it sure helps me and encourages me when I see folks posting!

It is great that you quit again! It isn't easy, but you made it past the hardest part! BTW, I am sure you are fine just the way you are.

I usually quit cold turkey too, the 10 or so other time I have quit. I knew I couldn't do it this time. My life is too stressful right now, My work is CRAZY because it is tax season, and I'm taking 2 classes and a few other things, I wouldn't have made it a day without smoking, so I decided to use the nicotine "supplements" LOL.

Today...I had the food craving...I ate way more sugar cookies than I should have! Then...I realized what I was doing and took a nicotine "supplement" to save me from gaining 5lbs in 5 minutes! LOL I'm okay now :-) Good thing I didn't have any potato chips in the house!

Stay strong everyone! I know you all have helped me to not smoke a great deal. The support is great and it's nice that you all understand what a struggle quitting can be. Just realized, it is 7 days today...still not out of the woods...will probably always be in the woods...but each day I breathe a little easier!
