Here I am yet again, writing another I'm going to quit smoking post. Ugh, I really do have a love hate relationship with my cigarettes. I started re-reading You Too Can Quit, and have made my list of reasons I want to quit.......
- Get fit
- Be healthy on the inside
- Smell good
- Korissa
- More money
- More time
- Tremors (I have head tremors that can't be explained, and they are sooo bad when I smoke).
So, the steps I'm taking this week are:
- I've moved my outside smoking to my front step. I usually smoke in my backyard in a chair, but I need to make it as inconvenient as possible. Oh man, it's freezing in the front, and that step makes my butt cold.
- Not have a cigarette until after I shower. My first cigarette of the day is the most anticipated, by waiting, it will train me to not want it so much.
- Not have a cigarette right before bed.
- I'm going to read my list of reasons throughout the day.
- Eliminate smoking in my truck.
- Yoga
After I finally do quit, I'm going to add cardio into my workouts. I also have gone back to my vegan eating this last week, so that is good too. I don't understand why this quitting thing is so freakin hard. I've been going back and forth with it for almost 2 years now. It's driving me bonkers, so, that's why I'm taking these baby steps, hopefully that will help.
