Great job getting through the roughest day! If you really want to do this you will. Watch how fast your stats add up as a non-smoker! This is so worth doing!

Thanks All!
 
So far so good. I'm about half way through day one and so far no killer craves. Just carrots, ice water and a stack of movies. I dusted off the home gym equipment and I'll be working out the stress with exercise instead of pumping poison into my system.
 
My daughter took my car to go to lunch and a movie with a friend, so I'm pretty much stranded. If the demon got to me I'd have to walk 2 miles in 100 degree heat to get a smoke. That ain't happening!
 
Thanks again. You all helped build up my confidence for this quit and I know I'll keep it going.

Ron, congratulations on your first smoke free day!  You won't be sorry you made this decision, you really won't!  Stay close to this site, and remember not to look any further ahead than one crave, one day at a time.  And listen to Patrick...iced water...iced water...iced water!  You CAN do this.
 
Cheers,
 
Jan

Ron,
 
Excellent resolve!  Do you have some coping mechanisms ready?  Make sure you have lots to do to keep yourself occupied and take rest when needed, your body is going to need time to heal!
