It has been 12 days since I quit. The work week was not that bad because I was pretty busy. But this weekend was aweful! I think I ate everything in my house. Did anybody else eat a lot when they quit?

Congrats on your 12 days!! Thats great!!

I think most people eat more when they quit, because not only is the food smelling/tasting better, but its a replacement for a cigarette. I ate a lot when I quit,but I just tried to keep the sweets AWAY from my hands,and only have crunchy vegetables and fruit around. (I find that fruit helps A LOT, espcially oranges) Keep up the good work, and try to stay away from most the sweets this holiday season (it will be hard for us all!). Take Care

YOU GO!!

I smoked for 34 years and quit. It was tough, but I have been off for 10 months as of yesterday. It is worth it. After about 2 weeks it starts to get easier. Your life turns back to normal at least by 6 months, sometimes sooner.

Keep up the good work!
