Ohhhh.
First proper stomach cramps are hitting.
Officially in nicotine withdrawal.
It hurts.
However, it's late and I will sleep soon.
Also, I have good pain relief available to me.
So I'm going to take some ibuprofen and paracetamol.
I don't remember the last time I felt so determined to do something. Long may it continue.

@stueytheround I’m proud of your Day 1, friend. Rest easy and we’ll cheer on Day 2. Small steps. When my dad was trying to quit, he walked around with a cigarette pencil unsharpened. The habit of having something in your hand then suddenly having your hand free was part of his difficulty. But these pencils gave him something to hold and hang from his mouth. It really helped trick his mind.

@Avalea I'm considering trying the Kojak trick but with sugar free lollies 🍭
