quit cigarettes

No smokes, no gum, no nicotine ,no worries and I’m breathing better .

It’s about the nicotine . I’m not a smoker anymore but I’m mean if I go to long without the gum . Three hours no prob, four doable .
Usually have my first piece an hour or so after waking .Today waited three hours and found my vocabulary reduced to a single word .

I’m down to one nico-gum every two hours but I’m going off schedule . I’m supposed to be at one every 4 hours next week and off it entire in 3 weeks . I’m not going to make that promise . One every 3 hours next week then every 4 a week or two after that .
There is a lot less nicotine in a gum fix than a cig plus I’m not kicking myself in the lungs . I’m not feeling down about slipping a little on dropping the gum .

Still haven’t smoked but I think about ciggs . Forgot my gum yesterday went to work . 9 hours no nicotine no prob .

According to the schedule I’m supposed to start weening from the gum. Hmm.
I’m amazed honestly. Week 2 I dreamt about cigarettes. A couple of times I thought to have one and then thought, “But I’d have to restart quitting., I don’t want to undo my progress. ” Still this week when I’d get a little space of time, 10 minutes before work or a short errand to run, the image of smoking would flash visually in my head.
7 weeks without a cigarette no prob. In another 7 weeks I may quit the gum .

I’m suprised. 6 weeks easy but I am hooked on the gum . Supposed to start cutting down on the gum after week 7, yipe

No worries, stayed up Saturday playing games with two smokers, easy.
Two more weeks on the gum then I’m supposed to ween myself of it.We’ll see.

That’s right a solid month no ciggarettes. I’d been doing a blunts a bit but it’s two weeks since i did that either. All my nicotine from the gum.

Just about transferred my addiction from smokes to gum. ain’t had a cigarette in 3 weeks no prob.

Chewing the gum is cheaper than smoking so far, gives me the hiccups sometimes though.
