Hazel ~ so glad you are joining us. Do you have a plan in place? Trust me, the urges and triggers WILL come.....be ready to combat them. Make a plan of what you will do and keep the list close at hand.
Have you gotten rid of all your smoking paraphernalia (ash trays, lighters, and cigarettes)?
Don't hang out with other smokers. if they step outside for a smoke....stay inside and play a game on your phone or do something to occupy your time, mind, and hands. You can do this!!!!

I'm quit over 3 years :)
