what I haave learned

Since I quit smoking I have learned a few things....Granted its only been a few days, but here goes.
#1 I can go all day long without a single craving - but once it get's to 8:00 at night....I can barely make it minute to minute. It's terrible!
#2 Part of the addiction to the cigarettes is the nicotine, the other part is a hand to mouth addiction...so the one thing that I have found to curb that addiction is Hershey's Chocolate Bars. Seriously, I have tried ice, sunflower seeds, peppermints...but the only thing to help the craving is Hersheys....so now I know why people gain so much weight when they quit smoking! AWESOME
#3 Everyone is much more annoying!
#4 I need the cravings to go away soon because I am not a nice person.

I really dont get it because I was able to quit both times I was pregnant. In fact, it wasn't even an issue. So why can't I quit now. Technically I am on day 4 smoke free....but geez...I just hope it gets easier and SOON!

I know they cannot even begin to compare to Hershey's chocolate, but when my friend quit smoking, she chewed on fountain drink straws. It is a zero-calorie alternative though! LOL! Good luck and keep up the good work!!
