Holy crap. Smoking dulls your sense of taste? How much?

That sounds like fun, no nicotine and no caffeine.

Good job, keep it up!!!

One habit at a time. Drink some coffee. Grab a coke. Has it been 48 hours yet since you cheated the one cig?

The coffee's not that big of a deal.

It was last night that I took a couple of puffs off the "cheating" cigarette, so no, it hasn't been 48 hours.

And yes, gochiefs, smoking dulls your sense of taste. If it didn't, nobody would smoke.

ROFL ROFL ROFL

2 of the best I've heard back2back in awhile!!!

Hang in there fraz, wish I could offer you a quittin compadre, but I caved and bought 3 packs last night. There's somethin about once I spend that money, I've got to use it, just can't throw em out. Weak...

P.S. Got one of those summer cold things to go along with the new retainers. Sneezin, now hackin up crap, which takes awhile to pass as a smoker. I get a cold and it takes a month to get through it. My cube neighbor was worried about me this morning. I need to quit these fuggers...

Day 4. Still getting cravings, but not as bad. Still trying to come to grips with the "something is missing" aspect, which is becoming less annoying. Still coughing shit up in the morning, but not as much. I've been ravenously hungry since I quit and eating A LOT. Hope that urge goes away soon.

whatever you do don't start drinking to curb the cravings for at least another week. it will drive you back into the aems of the enemy.

That "Something is missing and what to do with your hands" feeling will stay with you awhile. Sometimes 4 weeks or more. Some people report that they never had it but the majority say it goes away in about 2 weeks.

Gum and toothpicks worked for me.
There is a curve that once you get past the top, everything starts to feel better, even mentally. Hang in there!

PS Yes you will gain some weight...but I've never coughed up fat before.
:D

Hang in there, Tim. Drink water instead of eating when those pangs come. Maybe you can get some stick pretzels to help. Those won't blow you up too badly.

Boy, I'm jonesing for a friggin smoke now with the game starting.... :cuss:

I'm gonna go through a lot of gum tonight.

A two pound chunk of Velveeta melted with a can or Ro-Tel tomatoes and a king size bag of Fritos ought to take the edge off.

Hang in there Fraz.........make up veggies the size of cigs.....celery, carrot sticks......suck on them and no fat~;)

I think I'll stick with guacamole Doritos & bean dip.

It'll be nasty here later. :evil:
