I am quitting smoking.

 

Today is day three. I should have started with a post on day one but I didn't think about it. It is probably a good idea to post updates about it on here for accountability.

So far it really hasn't been that bad. I mean, I know the craving will get worse before they get better but I am doing pretty well I think. I am just trying to stay nice and distracted, also I am trying not to watch too many movies because seeing people in movies smoking makes me want one, I guess. lol.

I feel like making some lists. Lists are cool. First I'll make a list of triggers then a list of things that help with cravings.

Triggers

• Riding in the car
• being around/seeing other smokers
• boredom
• feeling ugly
• impatience
• over eating

Coping Mechanisms

• Do crunches
• Eat skittles
• knit
• play guitar
• write
• take a shower
• sleep it off
• play a game
• call/talk to Dalin
• have a nibbly snack

Hmm, that's all I can think of right now. I am sure I will come up with more triggers, it seems like living is itself a trigger. Haha.

So yeah, keep me honest.
