    I know how hard it is as I was once an addicted smoker. Hubby and I quit cold turkey as a New Year's Resolution in 2002. I'll never smoke again as quitting is just too hard. We took up walking and walked and walked and walked! LOL A lot of crying and chocolate didn't hurt either.

    I just want you to take a look at your profile. Everything you have written is to primarily to do with smoking...either that you quit, crave one or had one. Please don't be a slave to your addiction. You can do it! Think of yourself as a non-smoker and how much freer you will be. Good luck with quitting trish.

    Hi Trish. I know that through God, He can help. I will pray for this. I ask God to help me with my dieting...and He helps me. When I crave something (like carbs because of my fatigue) I ask right then and there. It's helping.
    Good luck to you hun and my prayers are with you for your strength.
    Hugs,
    jen

    I admire what you are trying to do. I know how hard it is. You're also stronger than me. I'm too afraid of the withdrawls and the short temper I have to stop. So, hang in there!

    I'm still smoking too. You might be on to something there about God wanting you to quit while you still like them, are you talking about it becoming a sacrafice to Him? I'm in the process of moving in 2 weeks, and i just put two of my cats to sleep today cause they were sick. Alot of loss going on in my life and it seems like I'm smoking even more. Planning on really trying to quit once I get moved on sept 6.

    Hey, please just put them down. That is what killed my husband. He wished he'd stopped when I asked. Too late. Yes I think He does want you to give them up while you like them so much.that would be more of a sacrifice than waiting till you hate them. He made the sacrifice of life, you can do cigeretts. I beleive in you
