luckyma55, my husband and I both quit on Jan 1st. He hasn't had a cig since. I've slipped up twice. Once was at the casino a couple weeks ago after having a few drinks. (I bummed one from a stranger) smileops: Got back on track after that. Then when I was cleaning about 4 days ago and found a cig I had "stashed" and...well...gave in and smoked it. It's tough, but I just keep trying. Haven't had another since then.


You can do it! Don't sweat the slip-ups. smile

for the most part am still not smoking but on tuesday when i see my brother i always bum a smoke off him. I decide to take TDTAT advice and go cold turkey and stopped using the patches cause i don't want to have to go thur this again. I find myself snacking alot more and have put on a few extra pounds. i need to find a good snack that i won't gain with...lol. smile


I like life savers or mints... only a few calories each. You can do it! smile

kaymast and shirlsplay, it sounds like you are doing great!!! A slip-up here and there doesn't have to end your attempt to quit. As long as you keep trying, you will get there. A bit of weight gain may be inevitable at first, because you will be trying to replace the cigarettes with food. Maybe try using carrot sticks or sugar-free candy, or gum. Whatever works for you is ok, because once you get past the worst of it, you won't need that stuff anymore, and you will gradually lose the weight.

Thanks, guys! My husband has gained about 10 lbs already, probably because he is constantly eating hard candy or licorice now smile I've been exercising more and I honestly don't mind if I gain a few lbs. This time around, I don't beat myself up over the slip-ups. The cravings are manageable, just certain situations trigger them. Anyway, congrats to all who have quit, and good luck to those trying to!!
