Week 2 of My Addiction Recovery
For those who care ❤
If you follow me or read any of my stuff faithfully you’ll know I’ve been battling a smoking addiction for over 40 years. It’s disgusting and exhausting.
On March 11th I decided to throw it all away. No more cigarettes for this girl. I had to be done. I was starting to look and feel gross. Just as gross as the cigarettes.
With this quit, as confident as I felt going in, I wasn’t going to put too much pressure on myself. If it sticks, it sticks, if it doesn’t, I’ll try again when I’m more ready.
Week 1 went fairly smoothly
The day I quit smoking I dragged my lazy ass back to the gym and bought a monthly membership. I figure the money I save on smoking should go to something better, like my health.
I’ve changed my morning routine now so I can get to the gym first thing in the morning before I start my work day. So far so good.
I should tell you right now, though I did quit smoking, I still vape. Hopefully one day I can quit doing that too. For now, the lesser of the two evils helps me.
So the first week went well and I really only had one cigarette craving. I got through it pretty good and nope, I didn’t cave. My daily gym routine now reminds me how disgusting smoking is.
