I woke up in pain today. Had to get out of bed early because of it. I really want to smoke. But the fear of failure and the anxiety would just get worse if I caved in.

I went to church today and received Christ in the Eucharist. And I didn't have to polute my body. Its so good, I feel that I'm ready to share God's love more. There is nothing standing in the way.
The kids came over and we had some cake. Again I didn't have to walk away to smoke.
After diner I went for a walk. Boy I'm out of shape. Half way around the block I was breathing heavy. Just gotta get out there more and do it. Now I'll have more time because I'm not smoking.

Yesterday I gave my self a pedicure. And I realized that being a non smoker makes me feel prettier. My hair smells better. Most of the time I don't bother with makeup, but I did a little yesterday. Without smoking I have much more time. I'm dealing with craves. There's lolipops in my car which I hit yesterday. 7:30 pm seems to be a dangerous time. But 4 pm or first thing in the morning is when I use to check my supply and go buy if I needed them. Those times seem to be my strongest quit times. Thank God. I believe that God is giving me the grace to keep this quit.

Not bad at all today. In fact I had more energy than usual especially around 4pm. I wonder if it was because my work week was almost over or 48 hours without all those chemicals that weigh you down.
I haven't expierenced what I feared most- the lack of concentration. There are some tighness in the chest but nothing that I can't deal with. Positive attitude very good thing. And I kept busy going out with my sister and her family for my birthday. I told them that I quit. I think they are going to be my biggest support.

I smoked my last cigarette yesterday at 4pm. I was driving home and decided not to stop to buy more. I did talk to TLC. (telephone life coach) He was supportive of upping my quit date. I was going to make May 4 my quit date. Because my Goddaughter is receiving first Holy Communion on May 6.
Today wasn't too bad. I was busy at work. My mood was kind of gray, just like the weather. Oh yeah and it was my birthday!
Right now I have tightness in the chest. Anxiety. Nothing to be anxious about. Just gonna wait it out.
