I had to move some furniture today. The pick up truck driver was smoking. I didn't bum one from him. I was at a memorial day bbq. Out of the 9 people at the bbq, 7 of them smoked! I had a few little cravings, but my attitude saved me from smoking. I watched those smokers, (they all sat at a table together; the other non smoker and I sat at a different table with one of the smokers); they were drinking beer and smoking one cigarette after another. Sometimes it wasn't even 5 minutes apart. I remember those days; when nicotine had such a hold on me that I fed my cravings one after another after another. In the past, I would have given in and had "just one"; oh, okay, just 2...3..4..5. But, today was different. It was apparent to me that I was physically craving some nicotine from time to time; but smoking was not an option. It was totally a mental decison not to smoke. I finally feel that I might be in control of this. I felt soooo good when I got home today and had not smoked one cig! Plus, the past few days at work I only had 2, 2mg lozenges; and today, since I was off all day, I only had 3. That is great for me. Just wanted to share my good feelings.
