CoasterPeep7 Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 Ever since like 3rd grade (I'm in 6th now) Florida has been persuading us not to smoke. They say that if you are smoking (just in case) when you try to quit, you should try to avoid people more because you become moody and bored. You know what I mean? Smoking is kind of a hobby, but an addicting one. They say you should chew gum, just like Shockwave is, you can work on your other hobbies you have, or you can be creative and just draw. You can basically do anything but smoking. BTW, congrats on the 1st day w/o smoking, Shockwave I hope you understood what I said I make short stories long...

waterviper Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 Keep up the good fight Tom!! Yes that is very wise to find other things to do when you get that urge. Find something, find anything to do to take your mind off it. Best of all HANG IN THERE BUDDY!!! You can do it!!! Same goes for those who want to try quiting aswell!! Remember YOU are in control!! IT does not have control over you!! Just keep reminding yourself of that too!!! I wonder how the thread starter Mind Eraser is doing aswell?!!

Hattuchili Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 Good luck, Tom! I am sure you can stop it! Remember anly a few weeks and you are in the sun, to ride some great coasters! --Sören Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shockwave Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 Yeah, just over 4 weeks now. The time has just flown by! OK, so we're now at 3 days and feeling a little less stressed out at the little things in life. I still get a lot of cravings after meals, but I'm chewing a lot of gum and I keep eating snacks to avoid that. Don't worry about me gaining weight either, I just seem to stay thin whatever I eat! Yes, I weigh a tiny 133lbs! That's 60 kilos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carnage Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 I gained some weight from quiting smoking(the few failed attempts I had before finally kicking the habit). Though I'm not sure how much of the weight gain was due to smoking, increased beer drinking, quiting my part time job, or the freshmen 15. I've put on about 50-60 pounds in the last 5-6 years. Though it's not really that shocking considering how under weight I was before that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nrthwnd Posted February 17, 2006 Share Posted February 17, 2006 I think my 'falling off wagon' last year, about same time, probably/possibly kick-started my weight gain thru all those months. Once (and after) I stopped again. Hmmmph. That's most times the biotch of quitting; controlling weight and food, etc.etc. Hang in there, tho, no matter what the bod does, it's better than cancer any time, hmm? Yay all you quitters out there!

Nrthwnd Posted February 21, 2006 Share Posted February 21, 2006 And now that the weekend has passed.... How is we all doing here, in this thread here? Non-smoking, I hope? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shockwave Posted February 21, 2006 Share Posted February 21, 2006 Non-stressed as well Bill! I'm feeling a lot better already after just a week. I feel a lot more alert as well, bu that just be the coffee I'm drinking. On day 9 now - nearly in double figures! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nrthwnd Posted February 21, 2006 Share Posted February 21, 2006 Excellent Tom! Good to hear that. My birthday will signify five years without the evil weed... (not that weed, har har) Can't believe it's actually been that long w/o cigs. Considering how long I'd been smoking the wretched things. It also helps that you have someone with you, to help you thru 'stuff that happens' - and it will, believe me. Hang in there, lol! Go TOM GO!

Shockwave Posted February 25, 2006 Share Posted February 25, 2006 The edge currently stands at twelve days now. This probably the longest time I've gone without a cigarette since I've been smoking, and I got another great incentive to keep the faith yesterday! Disney Tickets!
