I quit!
The guide to quitting smoking:
I guess its pretty obvious to anyone with a brain that quitting smoking is far from easy. Ill admit todays really only day one. Im 19, and I started smoking in January of this year and ive wanted to quit since. My last cigarette was last night at ten pm.. Im the typical smoke 10 or more cigarettes a day. Heres the smoke routine: when i wake up, after breakfast, after im done getting ready, as im driving to where im going, once i get there, after lunch, after the gym, on my break and lunches at work after dinner, befor i shower and after i shower and if im still up a couple befor i get to bed. My cigarette of choice Parliament Lights. love those things, there so light and cute. Atleast I smoke a good cigarette, pricey tho. The cheapest I can get a pack for is $8.25 thats every two days. On average I spend 9.50 because the store that sells it for cheap isnt always convenient. My reasons for wanting to quit 1) Its desgusting 2)Im a mother 3)Its unhealthy 4) Its aging me 5) Its expensive 6) Its a drug 7) I never wanted to be a smoker. Clearly theres alot of good reasonable reasons to quit smoking, growing up my dad was a chain smoker, ALWAYS smoked around me and in the house, in the car everywhere. It drove me crazy, I hated being around it and begged him every day as a child to quit, and every pack he bought he said was his last & now Ive had the same routine with my son. and It sucks, Ive been debating to quit smoking for half a year now, might as well do it sooner then later right? So Yeah I quit, I have no urge to smoke but then again It is still day one but I feel confident. Reason 8) I dont wanna lose $100 bucks. Me and my uncle bet he coudlt quit drinking and I couldnt quit smoking as the new year approaches, we were joking around about how we should just keep it up and how im going to get him 2 cases of beer for christmas. He keeps randomly calling me saying that I should go smoke a cigarette and how he wants one even tho he doesnt even smoke.. and Im weak minded. thats another thing, I cant stand how Cigarettes control me, uhg. So Im going to be stronger, where theres a will theres a way. And my will power is convincing my nicotine addiction to get over it.
For the past three days or so its been the only thing on my mind, quit smoking. I eat healthy, go to the gym every day and still smoke- pointless! I even tried calling the 1800quitnow hotline, there useless..
Ill keep you updated on how this goes...
