not smoke even one cigarette this coming year

I’m going to quit soon, but with my break-up and everything else going on in my life I’ve been smoking a cig or two everyday for the last week. I have to consider this a failed goal and just go back to trying to quit smoking again.

My boyfriend and I broke up last week after quite a long time and I ended up smoking a few cigarettes that night. I haven’t bought any cigarettes or anything as of now, but I did have quite a few that night. I’m not going to let myself start back up though.

I feel like I’m doing well with my goal to quit smoking but last night I had three dreams that involved smoking cigarettes! I really don’t know why, I haven’t smoked since November, and I haven’t even really been around any smokers either. I woke up this morning with such a craving to smoke! I didn’t do it which I’m very proud of, but it seems so weird to have gone so long and then all the sudden have these cravings pop up.

One more month down! I really don’t even feel and urge to smoke anymore. Granted I don’t think I was out at all during the past month because I’ve been broke, but I’m sure that’s helped me. I feel so good about not smoking, and I love having the extra money too! I never realized how much money I spent on cigarettes each week until I stopped smoking. It’s almost saving me enough money to avoid that dreaded second job.

I did it! I made it through this entire month without smoking at all. I actually quit in November of 2006, but since this goal is focusing on 2007 I’m one month smoke free out of twelve! Total quit time is 3 months!

I quit about a month ago and I really want to make it a full year so my goal for 2007 is not to smoke at all. That means not even cheating once and smoking while I’m out with friends. I really hope I can make it!
