This is Just Another I Quit Smoking blog
I have been 4 weeks now without a smoke. Smoke free. But it wasn't easy. So many false starts and all because "just one" would be ok. I had to quit. I mean really quit. Finish the last one and walk away quit. It was something I wanted to do, but my body and mind thought differently. I had to say no. just like they teach you in school, "just say no". I had to WANT to do it. I had to make a conscious effort to do it. I had to NOT stop at the store on my way to work. I had to NOT ask for a cigarette from my co-workers. I had to walk away and tell myself that I am stronger than this. And I finally did.
My 510 didn't keep me from smoking. In fact, I've had this unit for 2 years now. I had to make that final step. My e-gadget wouldn't do that for me. It only gave me an option. But I still had to choose.
I made a new choice this time. I am smoke free now. I don't even like the smell anymore. It repulses me. I look forward to that tasty vapor. I don't mind. This is kind of a neat hobby now and helps me keep myself distracted. I look forward to trying new flavors. I am ready to order a new model just so I can know what it's about. Even with that, I budget myself, have enough supply and back up "just in case" and I spend considerably less per month than a cigarette habit.
I'm gonna pat myself on the back and tell myself "job well done!"
