My main concern is that I know my triggers so well and my smoke breaks were so consistent that I need to find something to replace them besides eating!!  Good luck to all of us!!! We can and WILL kick this habit.</description></item><item><title>Comment on One Month Smoke-Free</title><link>http://www.addedbytes.com/article/one-month-smoke-free/comments/</link><guid>http://www.addedbytes.com/article/one-month-smoke-free/comments/</guid><description>Comment by Shirley ( &lt;a href=""&gt;&lt;/a&gt; )&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Wow, I too am a few days past one month smoke free....after 35 yrs of sucking down that crap!  I found this because I typed in 'one month smoke free' to also see how my body is adjusting after a month.  Everyone that blogged here is or has been through the same thing.  Good for us, let's keep up the good work.  As David Child wrote Jan 2007, there is no such thing as one puff or one cig.  I found another website that helped me... they use the acronym NTAP.  Never Take Another Puff.  Let that become your mantra.. and if you say that to yourself when the urges strike and remember that you really don't want to start smoking again, you will stay a non smoker!  Please stick with it... no matter what...it will get easier.  Nisan, hope you stayed strong!  I smoked longer than you and I quit!  Have faith it will get easier. I sometimes forget I had a cig at some of my old trigger points. I can actually get in the car and go without thinking of lighting up! Yeah!</description></item><item><title>Comment on One Month Smoke-Free</title><link>http://www.addedbytes.com/article/one-month-smoke-free/comments/</link><guid>http://www.addedbytes.com/article/one-month-smoke-free/comments/</guid><description>Comment by joni ( &lt;a href=""&gt;&lt;/a&gt; )&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I quit one month ago, because I had surgery on my foot, and know smokers take twice as long as non smokers to heal. I'm very active and didn't to be off my feet any longer than necessary. Also, didn't want to risk any complications. So.....easy, it's all in your mind. I had no problem, cold turkey, the only way to do it. Nicotine is out of system in 48 hrs, the rest is behavioural.</description></item><item><title>Comment on One Month Smoke-Free</title><link>http://www.addedbytes.com/article/one-month-smoke-free/comments/</link><guid>http://www.addedbytes.com/article/one-month-smoke-free/comments/</guid><description>Comment by saozinha ( &lt;a href=""&gt;&lt;/a&gt; )&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am starting tomorrow.

Thigs are not getting easier and I don't expect them to.  I smoked a carton a week for 33 years.  So it's going to take some time for my body and mind to adjust to this new way of life.</description></item><item><title>Comment on One Month Smoke-Free</title><link>http://www.addedbytes.com/article/one-month-smoke-free/comments/</link><guid>http://www.addedbytes.com/article/one-month-smoke-free/comments/</guid><description>Comment by saleem ( &lt;a href=""&gt;&lt;/a&gt; )&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;one month smoke free is a month of happy and healthy life i never experianced such health energy and enthusiasum in my whole smoking life.

I didn't succeed on this attempt. After 4 months I started smoking again. However I am happy to report I am no longer a smoker as of last year. Got there in the end!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I highly recommend reading Easyway, by Allan Carr. It isn't perfect, but well worth reading. Stopping smoking is a mental adjustment only, and once you can see smoking as an addiction - your addiction - and realise that you're getting nothing from it you'll find it far easier to quit.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lastly - there is No Such Thing as one puff or one cigarrette. Ever. It does not exist.</description></item><item><title>Comment on One Month Smoke-Free</title><link>http://www.addedbytes.com/article/one-month-smoke-free/comments/</link><guid>http://www.addedbytes.com/article/one-month-smoke-free/comments/</guid><description>Comment by julie havant hampshire uk ( &lt;a href=""&gt;&lt;/a&gt; )&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i am coming up for my one month smoke free ad i have to say im so proud of myself and of everyone else who has done it. this is my second time of giving up i gave up in 2003 and started again early 2005. i couldnt believe i was addicted again just through having a few puffs whilst out with my mates in pubs!!!! never again im staying smoke free for good this time ad am saving all my pennies i would of payed out on fags. good luck every one dont give up!!!!!</description></item><item><title>Comment on One Month Smoke-Free</title><link>http://www.addedbytes.com/article/one-month-smoke-free/comments/</link><guid>http://www.addedbytes.com/article/one-month-smoke-free/comments/</guid><description>Comment by Larisa ( &lt;a href=""&gt;&lt;/a&gt; )&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am one month smoke free too, as of December 2, 2006.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It's my 6th time trying to quit, and I am determined this time. the patch seems to work best for me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Just wanted to congratulate you and give you support. keep it up; and thanks for this blog.
