So, overall, Day 1 was a piece of cake. I managed to keep ahead of the cravings by popping around 6 lozenges yesterday, which is about the equivalent of 12 cigarettes. The cravings never really overtook me, and I got a lot of assistance from the 100 degree weather, because as smokers know, cigarettes don't do much for you in the hot weather. Since I work in a home/office, I'm pretty used to stepping out every hour and a half or so for a smoke, but I was actually thankful not to have to yesterday, since the sun was blazing. It also didn't hurt that I was able to keep my mind off of smoking, in large part, by working from the time I woke up until around 10:30 last night. Keeping your mind on something else not only helps with the cravings, but it makes you an awfully productive person.
