Does anyone obsess about smoking when they are not supposed to be smoking? I do fine if I don't think about it, but this morning was my morning to wake up and get through my first cup of coffee without a cigarette. I made it through about 15 minutes. I guess that is a step in the right direction. It is amazing how it takes over your mind and you start thinking that you really need to smoke. UGH!

I am in central Texas and it is extremely hot so going outside in the afternoon has been cu…

This is really tough. I am guessing I will have to break down and buy some nic gum when I hit my quit date. Just the mental anxiety is enough to drive me nuts and I haven't even hit my quit date, which I am aiming for the end of this month. I am starting the separation process tomorrow morning. I just have to remember when I wake up not to smoke with my coffee. LOL!

Well, I messed up. My in-laws came in and we are trying to get our house refinanced, the latter is not going well. I totally lost track of tracking and the only thing I have really accomplished is not smoking in the car or house.

I still have yet to figure out how to watch the entire plan because I have not heard back from anyone concerning my log in problems on the main page where you watch the complete plan. I know I do tracking, then separation and finally a quit date. I am…

Day two has begun and I am still not quite ready to begin the separation. I have started smoking only outside and will no longer be smoking in my car. I am guessing this is how the separation part works, where you take a look at your smoking habits and then start working on them one at a time.

My sister is teaching me to crochet...That has been an interesting process. I do find myself a bit nervous at the thought of stopping, so I try not to think about it because I tend to wan…
