Two months later....

Still quit....unbelievable! I have even been on two extraordinary vacations and though I struggled with the 'lack of something' feeling constantly, I was able to fend off the smoking urge by eating nuts! I have definitely gained a few pounds in all the wrong places, but when I complain out loud somebody always says 'it's better than smoking'....argh! So, you see, the urge is still there, hidden beneath a ton of nuts and other foods that now taste so unbelievably good. Problem. Seems, too, that I am drinking more alcohol...hmmmmm, not sure that's really better than smoking. I am totally enjoying bloody Marys and wine whenever it's available. And, believe me, it'd better be available within a reasonable time or that personality no one wants to meet gets pretty close to coming out. That would be the personality I had when it'd been much too long between cigs! uh oh!

I will keep the faith, and maintain my behavior. Gaining weight all the way. No problem. I have at least started to walk/jog on the treadmill...certainly not often enough, but hey, I am doing it.
