Today is an anniversary for me. It is exactly two months since I stopped smoking.
The journey has been much different to what I expected, both easy in parts as well as hard. For the most part, determination has seen me through the weeks, along with much support from family, friends and Twitter.
Strangely, this past week has been one of the hardest I have had in terms of cravings. My friend, who used to run smoking cessation classes, told me that this is the time when it can be the hardest. When complacency creeps in and you believe that you have beaten the cravings.
That much is definately true. After passing the six/seven week mark with hardly any cravings at all, I let my guard down and as such, the cravings have slipped back to a level that makes it hard once again.
But, now I have realised this, my determination is back in full force and I think it is time to read "The Easy Way to Quit" again, which helped me so much in the first place. Never surrender!!
