Okay, I haven't had one since the sixth. What I did was, the night before, I drank and smoked about a pack in a 3-4 hour period or so. Whenever I do that, I rarely feel like having cigs the next day. This time was the same, I didn't feel like having any that day. And then I never did again. I think wellbutrin helped a lot, though - since I started taking it I had cut down significantly - like 2-4 cigs a day if I didn't drink. So maybe you should get some wellbutrin. From quitting in the past, I think cold turkey works the best, no nicotine replacement therapy. Because the nicotine is out of your system for good faster. Oh, another thing that helped me is that I woke up in november some time with these dark circles under my eyes, more than ever before, and they just stayed there. No matter how much sleep I got. I also noticed fine lines starting in the corner of my eyes. Vanity is huge. If you can up your vanity, it will be easier. Also, I wanted to lose weight (which I have - slow but still) and you simply can't exercise as much when you smoke.
Good luck!
Oh, also - I wouldn't drink or have coffee for awhile if I were you. I had coffee, but there was a bit of a craving there. And I only had a drink for the first time on the 23rd - a glass of wine.
