Hi everyone!! I haven't planned my 7 day reward, i plan on going to the movies and out to dinner this weekend for my birthday but i am also going to count it as my reward. To fight off the cravings i have been taking my dogs for lots of walks. It has probably been the easiest quit i have ever done. The first couple days were really hard but today has been really easy. i also drank alot of fruit juice which seemed to help. Good luck to everyone.
I made it thru day 3. It was actually pretty easy, i didn't experience much physical withdraws at all. Just my mind playing tricks on me. I keep saying to myself what did i quit for, i can still smoke until we decide to get pregnant and on and on and on. I then talk myself into staying smoke free, it is hard but i will make it.

Being smoke free for a long period of time before you actually get pregnant is sooooooooo much better for you and the baby. Remember how long it takes to get the toxins out of your body too! You wouldnt put a cigg in your baby's mouth right.. so think about that when you think you could until you get preggo!
You are half way through the hell week.. right with me! We can do it! you are tougher than those nasty things!
Peace

Your doing great, just stay strong, and keep doing the self talk. Sometimes those voices rationalizing with you to have a cig can get pretty strong and pretty convincing, so fight them off.

Lucky,
This is a great achievement! Have you planned your reward after 7 days? What are you using to help you combat these craves? Please share as inquiring minds want to know :)
