I quit in November. The very hardest part was the first 10 days. My best advice is to find a distraction until the urge passes.
And it will pass, just hold on.

Good luck to you! it's a really nice gift to give yourself- the gift of being tobacco-free.

I hope no one minds me reviving this thread (one of my first on this board)...

I am now a month and three weeks without cigarettes. I still get cravings everyday (usually just two or three) but they are minor and pass within a minute or two. I am confident I will not smoke again. But....

Am am fucking fat now. I've put on 24 LBS since I quite... no joke. Before I quite people used to ask me if I was feeling ok because I was so skinny. Now...well... the other day my doctor called me "corpulent". I like to think I have a good vocabulary but I didn't know what that meant until I googled it. Boy was I pissed.

Corpulent: –adjective; large or bulky of body; portly; stout; fat.

So now I'm looking for a little inspiration on losing weight.... or at least to commiserate with other fat people who frequent this board.
