Here's something that might help with your willpower ...

Just imagine the grief that I'll give you if you give in !!

In all seriousness, stay with it.

I'll even lay off of NASA for a while (it'll give me chance to work on some projects).

Cheers.

FrizzleFried:
Welp Cheffo,

I'll be damned if I go back.  I simply WILL NOT go through the hell that has been the last 8 days FOR NOTHING.   Actually,  it has started to get a little easier.   This morning I felt friggin' GREAT until my 800# provider decided to screw up and send all my incoming work phone calls to my voicemail,  which was a huge headache...and dealing with the tech support in Pakistan made it worse. 

If I said I didn't want to smoke right now I'd be a big fat ole' lyin' bastage.... but I think the worst is over...but i'm NOT letting my guard down.

Good job man! It should just keep getting easier. 

I smoked for about 4 years (I guess thats not that long compared to most smokers).   Quit about 12 years ago.

It sounds kind of stupid, but one thing that helped a little bit was instead of telling people that I quit smoking, I'd tell them I don't smoke.   When I quit, I worked in a bar, and I swear if I told a smoker I quit, they would spend the rest of the night trying to recruit me back to the team.  If I just told them I don't smoke, they left me alone.  (Saying ' I don't smoke' repeatedly may have helped reinforce it as well, who knows?  Oh, and a cup of coffee made a half decent replacement for the after dinner puff.  :) )


Stay with(out) it!




FrizzleFried:
Thanks...but I have to watch the Coffee too.  I was up to 5 pots a day for a while there and I have since limited myself to a single pot in the morning...and maybe a pot in the evening during the weekend...
