I just put on my first patch. Any ex smokers have any words of advice or wisdom?

Thanks Jen! Today will be a real test! I think it was probably easier when I locked myself in the house all weekend, now I am at the office with a bunch of smokers and temptations everywhere.

Oh my goodness, with everything else I picked up how could I forget lollipops?
I will have to chalk it up to not being able to think straight.

Hang in there - the cravings only last a few minutes at a time......
I have been smoke free since October 31st. I had tried since April to quit, I had cut down but could never just 'do it' - On Halloween I decided that was it, no more, and have not had one since. Its gotten a lot better but every now and then I still want one.

Ladies, I made it through a week! I am so happy, I am already feeling better and my teeth are already starting to be a bit whiter!
Last night was a test because I had a very rich dinner at Emeril's resteraunt and then we we out drinking...I really thought being out drinking was going to trigger me to smoke, but I didn't!

My new stats are:

Time Smoke-Free: 7 days, 20 hours, 16 minutes and 16 seconds
Cigarettes NOT smoked: 118
Lifetime Saved: 21 hours
Money Saved: $21.00
