I just saw this. Some times after the first thrill of quitting, the newness wears off and you still have craves and feel tired of holding on. I know you are tough and the thing to do at this point is to hang on. I have heard the term "embrace the suck" which I think may be appropriate. Work through this tough time and you will come through to the other side feeling better.

That's excellent. How do your lungs feel? This is one thing I love about not smoking, clean lungs. For me it got to a point that if I took too deep of a breath, or if I laughed to hard, I would cough. Not anymore

NOPE

One thing I liked about Alan Carr's book was that it said to go live your life happily now that you quit smoking. I did not know that. I thought that one was supposed to be in agony and suffer and miss smoking and go through the hardest thing in my life. I liked his attitude and I tried to practice it from the start. So, while I did think about smoking and not smoking every day for quite awhile, I also felt true joy to have quit after more than 30 years at a pack a day. The urges and thoughts will fade. Just remember to always NOPE no matter what.
