I could almost feel it coming on Thursday night. I didn'tmake up my mind to smoke the but I did on Friday.
It's strange, I know it was the nicotine talking but I felt in full control, rather than it being a relapse (which I suppose it was).
I decided to buys some beers and smokes telling myself that it was the weekend and it was time to relax.
I felt guilty (a little bit but not that much) but I did enjoy the sense of freedom again and not caring.
Anyway, I'm off the ciggies again from today. I'll have to get through that nicotine urge barrier again but it wasn't too difficult last week in the end.
The biggest obstacle I now see is getting past a weekend. These have always traditionally been a couple of days of feeling carefree and doing whatever I choose.
Hmmm... I'm thinking about what I can do to overcome that weekend feeling.
Any ideas ?

I know the feeling Sigmar...
You get in the habit of letting loose every weekend and come Friday those cravings set in!
The thing is, willpower is over-rated, if you can set a habit it is that much easier..
At most it will take you 3 weeks to set in place a new habit. But once you do, it's like a snowball effect and maintaining it is that much easier.
Anyways, I go into a lot of these sorts of tools/techniques on my site, check it out sometime:
