Re: Smoking and cea questions.

[Guest guest]

Hi

I was once s super heavy smoker and I successfully quit a

few years ago, actually I once started back up after a couple

years for only a couple months and had to quit all over again

and it was about as bad.

I tried to quit a few times before I finally made it. I quit

cold turkey.

I think what really helped me was quitting in the evening. I

was afraid to try it thinking I wouldn't sleep all night but

I ended up sleeping quite well. But the part I liked was that

when you wake in the morning you already have close to a half

a day smoke free already and every evening you chalk up

another day.

The very worst is the first three days which are torture and

if you cheat you just make the anguish last longer. But after

the first three days you are on your way. Then a week, then

two weeks. After two weeks it continues to get better and

keeps going like that. I also did not eat too much because I

did not want to gain weight and then have to struggle with

that.

I still check my pockets like I used to before work to check

for smokes from habit and cigarettes still tempt me

occasionally but they stink and taste terrible now and I

rarely even think about them. And it is getting too expensive

now also.

It can be done and is a major life accomplishment. Good luck

and don't give up.
