How is everybody doing? I'm doing OK the back of my throat kind of tastes like an ash tray. I wonder if thats the the nicotine all ready coming out of my system?
it's not from the lozenges either because I'm not using them because they really burn my throat but was definately was nicotine taste in my mouth. Many years ago after not smoking for six weeks my skin turned ash grey from the nicotine comming out.jpm, I had the same thing. Taste of nicotine in my mouth. I am proud of you. I quit July of 07. I always carry mints with me. PM me if you need me.
I've been doing some deep breathing exercises that seems to help.
I think that about sums it up...
Keep up the great work YT..I know it's hard but I know you can do it..I still have my moments, but I can walk by them in the store now and not want to grab a carton and run like heck..And I am not one of those who want to tell you it's better not to..BUNK you know all that crap and you know you can do this. You are stronger than it is.this is the start of day 4, and it`s been **** Rough! but I haven`t given up and expect it should start to get a little easier now (going on past experience).
I`v had to keep my mind in "Ignore Mode" for the cravings and the constant mental nagging to smoke.
this morning I seem to be able to Focus much better and my concentration drifts a little less, so I Might even manage to get some work done

Well, you are a day ahead of me. Don't slip now because you have already passed the first and hardest phase. Now the cravings will come in shorter increments, today it seemed like every thing I saw on TV people were smoking and quite enjoying it but they were actors who don't smoke it did give me a longing but it passed quick,this is the start of day 4, and it`s been **** Rough! but I haven`t given up and expect it should start to get a little easier now (going on past experience).
