Welcome Renee
I still feel like a newbie at times, but the poeple here have made it possible for me to make it this far into the quit, it is amazing. I can say with certainty that I would have never made it if I had not found this site. I used the gum for a couple of weeks, but did not like it very well and figured I had the physical cravings out of my system by then, it was time for me to take care of the mental part on my own. My husband and daughter quit at the same time, so that made it much easier for me.
Post often, lots of ice water, use your tools that you find on this site, re read them often, tell all your support system what you are experiencing, make it thru hell and heck week, and the future will look so much better (and cleaner and less stinky) to you!!
Congratualtions on your decision to quit...set your quit meter and use it all the time. It is the one of the best tools of this site...I still love seeing how many days I have been healthier, and how much money I have saved. Truly amazing...the best part tho? Well, as you will soon find out, it is the awesome new friends you will find right here!!
Morning, Everyone!! Have a fantastic week!
Enjoy the ride, hang tough and always remember PMA..postive Mental Attitude. When you think you can do it, we KNOW you CAN do it!! :)
