That would have been luv at first sight (or bite) for me, Boo, was it for you ?

You won't have many insane craves like this one but, don't let them catch you off guard. Get a plan together when they hit. I did jumping jacks and primal screaming. Hot showers. Walking around the block at breakneck speed. They are emotionally draining. Do something really, really nice for yourself this evening. Rewards are so important especially after tough craves. You are winning. You quit smoking. You are stronger than any damn crave.

Sorry you are having a tough day, Lilly. Stay focused, you are building a strong quit and we are behind you all the way. Some days are just BAD, even in real life. Soon, you won't have smoking or nicotine ruling your thoughts and the sooner you can switch them up the better. I know I waited far too long in purposefully replacing smokey thoughts with thoughts of beauty. Addiction really sucks but, the recovery doesn't last forever, even though it seems like it at the time. I promise, soon you will feel clean and clear and more confident and powerful than you can even imagine. I promise.

Congratulations ! You already have most of the nicotine out of your body and will find the power to crush your craves and triggers ! Expect some discomfort and learn new skills to handle them. Be kind to yourself. Reward yourself with every crave you beat. Drink water. Use Jillars Air Cigarette or a stick of cinnamon. Drink juice, keep your blood sugar up. Do anything but bring nicotine back into your life. You are winning and we are all so proud of you. S

Quote taken from The Oral Cancer Foundation's article, Cancer Risk of Nicotine Gum and Lozenges "Scientists have discovered a link between mouth cancer and exposure to nicotine, which may indicate that using oral nicotine replacement therapies for long periods could contribute to a raised risk of the disease. A study funded by the Medical Research Council, led by Muy-Teck Teh, of Queen Mary, University of London, has found that the effects of a genetic mutation that is common in mouth cancer can be worsened by nicotine in the levels that are typically found in smoking cessation products"

You repeatedly promote nicotine gum, not as a tool to help you quit nicotine but, as a lifestyle. This is sad and unhelpful to people honestly dealing with nicotine addiction. There is no wrong way to quit smoking and quit nicotine.
-
Make NO mistake ! Your cravings WILL be there for the rest of your life until you deal with your nicotine addiction. You obey your addiction and perpetuate your slavery. For you to be a proponent of maintaining nicotine addiction is abhorrent and the antithesis of what QTrain is all about.

Try nutritional yeast on your popcorn, it has a parmesean-y sort of flavor and is salty. Super packed with B vits.
