Lesson One: Remove all cigarettes, lighters and temptation...

To cut a long story short, I was ecstatic to have cut down from around 20 a day, to 1 a day. I was in a routine with nicotine lozenges getting me through to around 10pm, and then having one cigarette (the last one of the day is the hardest one for me to stop - it's something I look forward to!).
And then I was in a rush to get somewhere, I forgot my lozenges, and didn't have time to find somewhere that stocked them. Next thing I knew I was in a newsagents, and back up to half a pack by the end of the day. And the other half went the following day, with the justification that I'd already spent the money, so I might as well smoke them.
Idiot!
But this doesn't mean I've given up on giving up. I've now stocked up on enough lozenges to last me weeks, and made sure I have ample supplies at home, at work, and in the jacket I wear every day.
And from tomorrow it's back to 1 or less a day.
