Thanks everyone, and you're right. Day 1 halfway finished, made it passed lunch (a huge trigger)!

Drinking plenty of water, and coffee's helping me not feel so much like a zombie. Reading through this site for y'all's tips is helping a lot too.

Congrats!

Careful with caffeine... it can be a killer early in your quit: http://www.killthecan.org/robs/cafnic.asp

Coffee is a MAJOR trigger for me, but do what you got to do for you and your quit. For whatever reason, I don't like chewing when I'm tipping back a few cold ones...that's a blessing.

Anyway, kick some ass minute by minute

jjms, that was a blessing for me too that alcohol was not a trigger. It got me through the first 30 days....be VERY careful. Being drunk will lower your guard and even though alcohol was not a trigger, a hangover was a HUGE trigger for me.
Being quit is like so much better than not being quit.

Mike is correct. Be very careful with alcohol early on. Hangovers still feel wierd to me so my alcohol intake is much less than it used to be which is not a terrible thing.

Good choice !! Welcome !!
It's not that some people have willpower and some don't... It's that some people are ready to change and others are not.

NEVER AGAIN !!

There is a huge difference between a commitment of 99% and a commitment of 100%
