This is an accountability post. I’ve decided it’s time to give up the smokes so I have a plan set. I’ve joined My fitness pal because I don’t want to substitute smokes for food, nicotine patches, vapes etc. Im incorporating more exercise as a distraction. This is an experiment. 10 smokes a day for a week. 9 the week after. 8 the week after etc. I should be smoke free in 10 weeks or in jail because I’ve killed someone. I can do this because I am strong and stubborn.
You can do it, and that sounds like an excellent plan. I quit by gradually going down in strength, and when I got to the really low ones they were so disgusting I just stopped.
Congratulations on making an awesome decision for your health! Cutting down with a view to quitting is a great idea. It worked for me anyway. I got down to 6 a day and then quit. I worked out it was taking 10mins to smoke a cigarette so I was wasting an hour a day smoking and complaining that I didn’t have time to do this or that. I also used lozenges and the spray.

Cheering you on!
It took me a hundred goes to quit, keep at it.
I’m kind of curious whether the slow wean method is easier than cold turkey.
If it doesn’t work then I’ll try something else but I’ve gotta give it a go.
