Kathy, Great attitude!! Hope your ME day was wonderful.. It has always been harder for me when I have too much free time. I use to clean out drawers or closets in the beginning.. We are now back to being slobs.. Distract & delay!!! One day at a time.

Posting is distracting to cravings! Did you know that the average crave only lasts about 3 minutes??? It is hard to type and remember to crave at the same time! :) Just keep going! And no cheating!!!!

Josie, I never really get sick and the only sick time I take is when my alergies kick in. I've decided to take tomorrow as a ME day! I feel like 11 smoke free days have earned me that.

ask for help here if you need it okay, post HELP!! and wait for 10 replies, and spend that time reading here while you wait. You can do this and furthermore you deserve this QUIT!!

Ok, so it's Thursday night and my husband has been away on his boys trip since Monday night. I was dreading this week because I knew that I could cheat at home and no one could catch me! But I've made it this far and tonight is a hard one. I'm just doing what I did on Saturday and typing my cravings away. :) It's so, so, great to have this forum to vent my issues to because actually putting it down in words makes the problem either go away or lesson.
