Well, I assume you made it through the night! I now how tough it is ... I watched my parents struggle for years. When I wrote about my dad having cancer .. this is why. He smoked and was a firefighter so he got a double whammy. The doctors pretty much told him though ... that it was mainly from the cigarettes. It has now spread from his liver to his bones and it doesn't look good. It doesn't just endanger your lungs ... it travels all through your body. Like I said ... he is only 61 years old.
Please stay strong. Let your kids be your strength. They deserve to have a healthy and strong mom to be there for them. Plus, you are a role model to them and when they see you smoke - no matter how bad you tell them it is - you are telling them just the opposite in reality. Not to mention that fact that they are now saying second hand smoke is AS dangerous as direct smoking.
I am proud of you for making it this long! That is AMAZING! =) Remember, they say 3 months is when a habit sticks. So hang in there. Also, everything I've researched has shown that exercising while quitting makes it about 10 X's easier to quit because you flush stuff out of your system faster and it counteracts weight gain ... so you can't lose! Try and go for a rigorous walk every day if you aren't already doing so.
Lastly, give your cravings and struggle up to God. Offer it up for lost souls and pray for strength. YOU CAN DO IT! I'll be checking in on you! I pray God will watch over and give you the strength you need to quit for good!
Amen sister! HANG TOUGH!!!!

Way to Go! Just keep working through those cravings and you'll be ok. It's been five years for me, so I know exactly how you feel and what you are going through.

Congratulations! I quit about three months ago myself!
Just keep doing what you're doing - keeping yourself occupied. It will pass soon enough.
