One

Day one is going pretty good. I had my last smoke on my way in today and it almost made me sick. When I got to work I threw all my lighters in the big dumpster and did not regret it at all. I have had the munchies all day, but I am trying to not eat too much.
Emotionally I am doing pretty good. I really don't feel like I am being forced to quit or I am giving up something I really love. I had gotten to the point where I was not enjoying smoking. It was making me so tired in the afternoons. It's great because right now I feel like I already have more energy.

I did tell my best friend that I was quitting and her only response was, "Good luck on your smoking ban." WTF does that mean? I don't know if I am being overly sensitive, but I guess I was hoping for a little more then what she said. I think she is upset with me and I am not too sure why. I hate when someone is upset with me and I have no idea why.

I have a feeling that Sophie and I will be going on lots of walks tonight, which she is going to love. Thankfully it's not raining like it was yesterday.

Does your BF smoke? Maybe she feels defensive because you are doing something she doesnt feel like she is ready to do?

I imagine she was making a reference to the smoking ban that was just passed in KCK. People are debating about that a lot on the radio and stuff. So maybe it was a little joke?

Anyway, do your best! Moment by moment. Be good to yourself. Good luck!

We all know already that you are a strong woman. You'll be fine.

As for the BF's remark, remember that she is pretty temperamental anyway and has a lot on her own plate right now, too. Maybe it wasn't meant as it sounded. :)
