(((Sax))) your post cracked me up I was doing really well at not gaining weight, other than the same 5 pounds I would gain and lose, back and forth, but I think it's going to become a problem if I don't watch it. I've been grazing a bit more and I know it will add up. ((Kooks)) hugs and prayers for you and your brother. I bought myself a new blackberry phone to celebrate not smoking ...

It's all in my head. Please help me.

I filled my desk drawer and pantry with gum, sunflower seeds, toothpicks, etc. Anything to relieve the oral fixation. Over time the cravings got much, much easier. I still instinctively reach for my can of Copenhagen ...

Congratulations!!!!

Hey wuzzled, different strokes for different folks, you'll have to try and decide what works for you. Check out the stickies at the top of this forum, there's lots of cessation information. And please join in on the Daily Check-In if you feel so inclined, it helps some of us with being accountable.
