No problem Aloha.. those pink lungs look sooo good !
Ex, sounds like you were doing better yesterday ..
you made just a little noise - But if things get tough
let 'er rip hon ! LOL !
Outside of the primal yells, screams .. I find myself
doing a lot of sighhhhhhhhhhingggggggggg ..... It also
helps. I figure it this way do what is ever necessary
to make you feel better. One of the best things for me
when I get antsy/anxious/stressed/craves etc. is to go
for a brisk walk. Doesn't even have to be a long walk -
just get out of my environment and walk off the nervous
energy :)

Yes Aloha I saw Phil's avatar of lungs on another thread
made larger and the one on the left is a smoker's lung,
the one on the right is the same lung 90 days smoke free !
It does get nice and pink :)
I woke up this morning (with patch on from yesterday morning)
with an incredible craving :( Patch had passed it's 24 hr
mark and OMG what a rotten feeling ! :8o: Thank goodness I discarded ALL cig's, or else I would have lit up for sure.
I immediately put on a fresh patch, ate my breakfast and did
some deep breathing exercises. AND I let out some A A A A A's !
Making these primal sounds really helps me out a lot... Am very
sure that my neighbours can hear me .. LOL !
Cravings have calmed down a lot and now going to get some
light chores done. It isn't a good day for a walk - so hot and
humid :(
Ex - How are you doing this morning ?
When you have a chance let me know.. And yes, I do wish the
time were further along, but I don't want to think about it
and just keep taking it moment to moment.
