So I'm quitting smoking today

Wish me luck. I'm going semi-cold turkey. I've been sick for the past week, so I've barely smoked at all. I want to join and gym and lose at least 15 pounds, but I can't do that unitl I quit smoking becuase I can't breathe when I exercise. The only other time I quit smoking for more than a month was when I was pregnant with DS. I'm nervous, but I think I can do it.

I don't want to use the patch or the gum because all that does is prolong my need for nicotine. I figure if I could do it cold turkey when I was pregnant, I can do it now too.

When my DH quit he chewed a LOT of gum...seems like he always had gum in his mouth.

good luck! i smoked for about 10 yrs and used the patch to quit. It's so great to be smoke-free -- you can do it!

Good luck!  I smoked for 10 years and quit.  If I did it, you can do it

Brush your teeth a lot.  I noticed that having a fresh mouth made me less tempted to smoke.
