Thanks Aloha and Penitent :)
Well it's been just over 2 hrs since I posted and the craves
are greatly calmed down ! YEA ! !
Daylight has arrived and the winds are very fierce and the temp
is dropping significantly..brrrrrrrrrrrrr ! THIS cannot stop me
from getting out and getting some shopping done and the walk will
do me a world of good.
A plan is something I learned from my past quits which I need to
have at the ready at all times when the cravings hit. I know for
a fact that later this afternoon I'm going to be very tired so I'll
be sure to lay down, close my eyes, empty my mind and get some much
needed rest :)
Have a super day and will check back later.
Sam xo

Well Done Sam!!
No one said it would be easy but one can make it harder than it need be. You are not doing that and therefore you are giving yourself every chance to succeed and I love to see that!
Good luck, keep occupied and just keep on keeping on!! You will do this!!

Hey, that's great, Sam...you've got a plan and you're following it. And you're getting through the craves/urges/thoughts. Only suggestions I have..not that you were asking for any ;) are ....drink lots of cold water, add some meaningful to you self talk, and plan and give yourself some rewards for the awesome job you're doing. Have a wonderful day! :)

Had a very restless night .. and now I know why.
Many waves of craving. I've had my breakfast, watched some of
the news, did the dishes, vacuumed and now ?
Well here I am doing some deep breathing exercises while I read
as many posts here as I can.. I think I began hyperventilating
at one point.. OHHHHHHHHHHH !
Seems as though the craves are subsiding for the most part.
But I can't just assume that they won't hit again so I have written
out a plan for myself - a variety of activities to keep myself busy..
I've come here to let out my feelings (still taking deep breaths!).
Geez when you get these waves they can knock the wind right of you
huh ?
Ok.. better feed the cats, maybe clean a toilet ? Keepin' busy
and then when the sun comes out I'm out for a walk and some food
shopping.
Thanks for listening :)
Sam... breathe in... breathe out... *phew* :8o:
