Day 6

Cigs ZERO!!!!!! 000000000000000000000

It has been a long day, but I GOT THROUGH IT WITHOUT A CIGARETTE. I have had

some pretty strong cravings today, but I didn't give in to them. This is

really tough, at times, and easy, at times. My mouth has quite a few sores

in it, so the fruit is pretty much out of the question right now. It burns

when I eat it. So it is Charms pops and peanut M & M's. I am going to look

like a blimp before long. But I'll smell good! LOL.

I have been having a bit of pain lately. Maybe that's the reason for the

cravings. My feet and ankles are still swelling and get quite painful at

times. I am starting to get worried that I may end up losing my feet like my

gram did. Only, she was 75 years old when she lost hers. They swell so bad

that the skin burns, almost like it may rip wide open. I have been putting

moisturizer on it to keep it flexible, like I read on one of the links I got

here, but they keep getting worse and worse. I can't get my feet into shoes

and it is going to be to cold for flip-flops soon. I don't know what to do.

Anyway, I did not smoke today and that is what counts.

(((Heidi))): you really should try some of the links that are listed in

prev. posts. They are really neat. I especially liked the one about the

first two weeks and www.quitnet.com from Susie.
