   I just quit on January 01. 
   
   2 days in and felt like I'm missing a piece of who I was. The habit stuff - smoke with coffee, while driving, etc. 
   
   3 days in and starting to think that I am better than my addiction. I've gone 3 days without a smoke!!!

   That's wonderful to hear, congratulations!
   
   What have you been doing to help get through those rough patches/urges to smoke?
   
   Keep up the great work,

   NRT lozenges and spray. Like the spray since I can play with it in my hands as well. 
   
   Drinking lots of water. That helps. 
   
   Talking to my wife about what I'm going through. She also made a good point to let others around me know as well. 
   
   Felt good about myself this morning. As the day goes on the urges to smoke increase. Need to keep occupied.
