So,
Not sure if this is the best place to mix psychology and food but here goes...
So I'm off cigarettes for nearly three weeks...I'm a fairly experienced quitter (two long quits in two years - this is my third)..
Noticed in my last quit that the first 6 weeks of quitting - yip you felt hungry - but you actually weren't - just the cigarettes...
Ok - walk with me on this one...:)
So if we realise that we're going to have this 'burn' and see it for what it is - just don't eat. I don't think it involves any more strong decision making that actually stopping smoking in the first place.
So I guess i've got myself to a place where I 'welcome' the burn and as such have actually not ate quite as much as I did when I smoked and have actually lost 3lbs in the last few weeks.
So I don't know - it can be done you've just got to get the right 'card' in I guess.
Not sure if that's at all helpful or even if anyone will understand:)
Mmm did my best.
