Feeling : Still on edge...

This giving up smokin business is not easy!

Its been 13 days now and its getting a little easier, not bloody much though. I can go for a couple of days now without thinking about wanting a smoke. On the other hand, I go through phases where I think about nothing but wanting a smoke for a couple of days. Those are the days when its best to stay away from me!

I don't feel much different yet, although my sense of smell and taste is a little better...the food in the restaurant at the office now tastes shit as well as looking like it.

I'm trying to counter the weight gain that's bound to happen by a little exercise, and I do emphasise little! I'm finding that tic tacs are a godsend, they're really helping me get over the urge to light a cigarette...especially when I'm driving.

Been reading a few websites about quitting, if you want advice check out the links below. If you want to chat, offer support or to talk to me about my experience quitting, or if you're just quitting yourself and want someone to whine/bitch at...drop me an e-mail from the link on the homepage.

Feeling : Close To Insanity

Ok, so I've done it...I've given up smoking!

Two days now without the evil weed and I'm going absolutly fuckin mad! I am now beginning to wonder if this is actually worth the benefits of not smoking. Honestly, this is probably the hardest thing I've tried to do....and I'm only two days in. I don't know how I'm gonna feel after two weeks...I sure hope this gets easier...
