On track

I’m proud of myself.

I feel like I’m in control now.

I’m confident about my ability to continue not to smoke.

I need to keep my guard up so I won’t slip.

I feel healthier already.

Write down my reasons for quitting on a card and keep it in my wallet.

Make a contract with myself, sign it and put it on the fridge.

Find new ways to deal with stress in my life.

Reward myself by celebrating milestones; using my savings to treat myself to a new barbecue or a holiday in Europe!

Seek out support from my friends and family.

Stay on guard and have a plan for dealing with cravings when they come.

If the cravings get tough, consider using nicotine gum or patches.
