Hi LastPuff,
 Congratulations to you too for deciding to quit today!  Maybe you and Iddy123 can support each other on your quit journeys since you both started on the same day. It's nice to have someone to lean on for support.  Have you tried to quit before? How long were you a smoker? Even tough you have already started your journey, you might want to go through the "my program" at the top of the page. The more you know about what to expect and the better prepared you are to fight the triggers, the easier it "should be" for you. 
I wish you the best on your journey. It takes determination and will power more than luck to succeed.
Stay strong.

It has been almost 8 days smoke-free for me, and this quit attempt really feels like it is going to succeed.  I would say keep remembering what you DON'T like about smoking, every time that you get an urge.  Also, challenge the feeling that you are depriving yourself of something, when you have those moments of longing for a cigarette.  Sometimes it might mean over-ruling feelings with thoughts.  At other times, it will just feel really great not to be smoking!

I want to kick this habit! I am very tired of being a slave to tobacco. It could even prevent me from getting hired at a new job that I am seeking. So sad that I have been a slave to this addiction for so many years. Beginning today, I am trying to quit.
