Journal Entry for November 30, 2007 Mood

Friday, November 30, 2007

Well, I am trying to go Chantix free today to test my cravings. It's 2:30PM and so far so good. I even went to a place where people were smoking a LOT and it had no effect! Well, it had an effect, it made me gag!!! Thank GOD for that!!!

One thing I have noticed is that I have been eating more. Not by a ton, but I am definitely hungrier. I have put on about 5 lbs, but I think most of that is Holiday weight and also, the big P is coming up. I usually put on between 5-8lbs during that time and then lose it again when it's over.

We'll see what happens. I sure don't want to gain any more weight, but hey, I'd rather have some pounds to lose than die of lung cancer!

I have been quit for 2 Weeks, 6 Days, 14 hours, 9 minutes and 14 seconds (20 days).

I have saved $84.00

by not smoking 411 cigarettes.

I have saved 1 Day, 10 hours and 15 minutes of my life.

My Quit Date: 11/10/2007 12:00 AM

Isn't it great when you start to gag at the smell of cigs? I think that is a huge step in the recovery process. And I gained a little weight too, you are right though, better 5 extra pounds than a lung full of fluid. I'm glad you are doing so great Chantix free! Keep up the great work!

Great news, I gained too but the difference in my complection makes up for it, I can deal with a few pounds over shortness of breath any day! Glad you are well into your quit. Keep it up!
