Well, it is almost 4 weeks! It will be 4 weeks Monday night at Midnight. Actually this has not been bad at all. I have not had any of the gum in almost 3 weeks. I was determined not to replace my cigarette addiction with a nicotine gum addiction. It would be like not quitting at all.
I think the hardest part will be not going outside in the freezing cold to have a smoke with my friends and associates. I keep running into people who have quit for several months and then have gone back to smoking, this I think will be hard for the next several months. But I think I can be successful at this too.
My friend Jess has been cheating on her cigs, but I am hoping she will stick with it and quit. You know the cigarette companies do not play fair, they use any means they can, legal or otherwise to get people hooked on cigarettes and to keep them there.
To quit smoking is like fighting Big Tobacco and that's what you are doing, fighting all their little tricks and hoopla to keep you on their poison sticks.
