Day and a Half

Posted on by

I don’t want to sit at the computer for too long, because sitting here is now the only time I really WANT to smoke. I did want to let you know that the not smoking thing is going really well. I am feeling great today. I’m not kidding … REALLY GREAT. At only a little over a day and a half without a smoke, I can feel huge changes both mentally and physically. I can’t believe the differences I am already seeing! :D

And even sitting at the computer, where so much of my smoking took place, when I reach for the smokes and they aren’t there, it’s not a “Oh my god, I need smokes!” feeling … I just feel a little disappointed. Soon, I imagine, I won’t even miss them when I am sitting here either.

I am so glad I finally found it within myself to put the smokes aside. Of all the gifts I have given myself over the years, this one will end up being the biggest and best of all.

I’m going to go for a walk now. It’s such a pretty day, and I want to go out and enjoy it.

  1. Way to go. One day at a time, my friend and remember a relapse is only a reason to to start again at quitting. This is a difficult and wonderful thing you are trying to do. The Orb deserves to be in control of her life. Keep up the effort it does get better.

  2. “And even sitting at the computer, where so much of my smoking took place, when I reach for the smokes and they aren’t there”. Sort of like Pablo’s Dog. But don’t despair Orb, the good news is the cigarettes are no longer there. :brow: Keep up the good work.
