Day 2 off nicotine 😆

Heck yeah!

I’ve tried and failed so many times, but I feel good finally like I can do this 🥳

I've been meaning to go carnivore for a long time. Today will be day 1; you inspired me.

YESSSS! It’s all about willpower I’m learning 🫂🥳

I'm addicted to sugar. I went the keto route before. I was planning to do it for a month. The first 2 weeks were horrible: headaches, cravings... but I managed. When I hit 3 months of keto (of my original plan of 1) I decided to keep going and I was on keto for 2 years. I felt wonderful. So I know I can do it and I also know for 2 weeks I'll feel miserable, but then I'll feel amazing.

We'll keep you accountable here on Nostr!

I’ve been real keen on the AA philosophy of only committing to one day at a time because when you know something is gonna suck, it’s so hard to imagine doing it long term, but one day is so much more manageable. You definitely got this 🥰

You won’t regret it, my body punishes me if I digress at all.

Congratulations!

Hey thanks man! 🥰

I've been there

Oh hell yeah! I have a new found appreciation for anyone who has done it

You go! Congratulations 🎉

I stopped smoking cannabis for almost 10 months now. That stuff will mess with your lungs.

Nothing like taking a deep breath and not coughing up my lungs in response.

Oof, gotta tell you, I’m def still smoking a joint here and there 😂🫂 but I think I finally managed to ditch the damn vape and I have sooooo much more energy already

You do what you gotta do.

I still eat a hefty dose of THC in my gummies.

Yeah I would like to be done smoking entirely one day, but I picked nicotine first 🫂

I never got into the habit of smoking tobacco.

Tried a few times, wasn't for me.

Cannabis though?

Like a duck to water.

Bahaha totally get it and you’re very lucky to have avoided tobacco. I’m so mad at my past self 😂

There’s really nothing like parting ways with a habit that doesn’t serve you. Way to go. 🎉

I seriously was starting to doubt my willpower, but it feels really good 🫂

Congrats!

Thanks dude! 🫂

Do eet! And tell nostr:nprofile1qqsrg8d45l36jv05jz2as2j2ejfee79xw2fmreqhnl2ttsz5f38u9mcprfmhxue69uhk2mrfw3jhxtnwdaehgunpw35jummjvuhszrnhwden5te0dehhxtnvdakz7qgawaehxw309ahx7um5wghxy6t5vdhkjmn9wgh8xmmrd9skctcwr4e86 how easy it was when you're done.

Bahahaha that would be a huge lie, but I can say it’s doable if you have the support (which I know he has) and to stay busy (which he already kinda does)

And I can say, I already kind of feel better like way more energy

Hell yes to this!

FUCK YEAHHH girrrrrrl

noice.

FUCK YEAH

Do you booze

Not in 15 years. I quit that a lonnnnnnng time ago

🎉 Looking forward to your “1 week off nicotine 😂” note!

I think that’s actually gonna happen this time, I never made it this far and I keep telling myself “you already got through the hardest part, don’t go back now”

😂😂😂thank you

I’ve picked up a zyn habit myself.

Wasn’t even a smoker/vaper.

Just tried it for a moment while I was bored and liked it so now I have a bad habit but at least I’m not inhaling right to me lungs.

I do feel like that’s slightly healthier than the vape, but I don’t wanna enable you 😂

😆

keep it up 💪

I’m gonna! 🥳😄🫂

This ☝️

Congratulations and good luck! It’s doable, you just have to really want to not smell like an ashtray.

😂😂😂

I found the gum helpful with initial cravings (first two weeks) because it was nasty but got me to stop thinking about smoking in the moment

I tried the gum in the past and it was pretty yucky to me (idk why because my mom likes it too). I’m doing cold turkey and smoking more joints, but also walking like a lot

Yeah the yuckiness was a feature not a bug for me

I quit drinking cold turkey, it can be done!

Definitely! I too am a former drinker 🫂

🤝🫂💪

Good luck. It's a hard one. More power to you 💪

I honestly can’t imagine anything harder right now 😂 but it’s cool that we humans are so strong, we can do really hard things

Same

Stay Healthy ❤️‍🩹

Thank you!

Second day is probably the hardest 🙌🏽 keep loving hard on yourself. You deserve this 💜

I’m psyched because it’s almost over and I didn’t fuck up yet 😂 thank you babe

You're crushing it 💪🏽

🥰🫂🫂

Happy day 3!! Maybe today will be harder, probably. But you got this!

Thank you! I do seem extra cravey today. Pretty sure I’m gonna make it though 🥰

Wish you the best..

P.s. after 2 years of not smoking.. I fell for it again, while I thought I was over it. Smoking much less now, but still.. nicotine is a bitch.

Thank you! Yup, I don’t wanna ever do this again so I think I’m just gonna be a marijuana maxi 😂🫂

Indeed that's what I did too!.. problem is when I start bartendering, too many coffees and beers, and not allowed to smoke joints during work 🥲.. in the end, I changed work.

Yestr fuck nicotine and be a #Ganjahole 🤣😜

Aw man that’s triggering AF

And yup, I’m ganjahole now 😂🫂

I am happy for you but whyd you have to tell my wife

My bad dude, I didn’t like make it a point to 😂

awesome 🎉🫂 do

you want to stop altogether? or is that part of the plan of getting pregnant?

btw nostr felt empty the last 48 hours 😅

I was for sure gonna stop when pregnant, but turns out I’m quitting earlier 🤷‍♀️🫂

In my opinion it is a good decision and you will feel the difference after a few weeks! Stay strong 🫂

I guess there were closed stores .. anyway .. 1 step at time 😁

I'm inspired

NOICE 🫂

You got this 💪🏾

Hell yea

💪

You can do it!!! 🎉🎉

Woot woot! 🥰

You gonna be playing poker or in the not pokering cornychat?

Nah I was too into my tasks

Glad you made it in 🫂

AND it’s day one of my lady time. That means…I was pmsing the whole time I was quitting 😂💪

😂 because why not... put all the pissed off in to the same day.

Guess so 😂😂😂 I’ve been an ANGEL considering

Lol, I think you had the right idea with the staying busy.

I guess so 😂

I hit the one year mark on my newly beloved zyn habit in May. Then I started to notice I was always feeling tired and my dentist noticed maybe I was grinding my teeth at night. I am about 7 days off them now and miss them but noticed my jaw tension is def decreased. Strange side effect...

Nice! I’m hoping I can get to 7 days and hope you can keep it up too 🥰

Cigarettes are absolutely disgusting. Good job.

Now you won't make everything around you smell horrible.

Also, you can stack harder now.

🫡

It was vaping which is better, but also much worse 😂🫂

Nice! You smoke those joints pure?

drops 💧 💧

Sure do!

LFG ✌️

Probably like my 100th attempt, but definitely a personal best

At some point you’ll be so good at quitting you won’t even notice you stopped smoking

I’m already wondering what I can quit next 😂🫂

As long as you do not quit quitting you’ll make it 😆 ✌️ on day at a time

Yuppp! I’m so excited to say “day 4” 🥰

First target is 30 days. Change up your habits and do things to distract you so it’s not likely to get its claws in you. Drinking hurts your will power and reinforces old habits. Dodging that may be helpful. This is a chemical, and chemicals are wiley. Don’t fly close to the sun, just get through the first hardest segment with distraction, occupation and new habits in places where the habit can’t tell the body that the chemical needs to fuck with you. Avoid that chain reaction. Good luck! Keep us posted!

No nicotine rage incoming😳

Hope not 😂

Proof of Work

Nicotine is not the problem. It's the other 599 chemicals in cigarettes.

I’m happy for you. 🥹

But how do I get over my addiction to your posts?

lol I have no idea 😂 my notes are shit so you may need to ask yourself some important questions 🤭

The good thing about quitting smoking is that you can start again at any time.

Bahaha true, but I don’t think I will

Buckle up friend. You got about 6 months of pain

I went cigs to vape to zyn to quit.

I did cigs to vape initially too, but I’m not gonna use anymore nicotine I don’t think

Stay strong! Maybe increase caffeine 🤣

This is actually excellent advice and I have 😂🫂

Will Day 3 another 16 years? 🫣

Nope. Already made it 😂

🤸

It's easier than you think, it's just pure will power, you only need to want it. 😄

Learning allllllll about willpower through this 🫂

Maybe you need to start again 🫣 https://youtu.be/JyyxUCdbcn8
