Thats for sure!

It might sound like a good idea now (to have a cigarette) but just think of how you'll feel afterwards- you'll wish you didn't!

I know you can stay strong and not have one (although easier said than done!
)

It's so hard, isn't it? Trust me, I know!!!

Stay strong, and stay DISTRACTED!!! Chew a straw, suckers, hard candy, guzzle water, do some cleaning, just take your mind off of the craving...it will pass!!!

Pffft I'll feel great
but I will be mad at myself, so I won't. Also, in order to actually go get a cigarette I'd have to get dressed, I'm in my PJs, and that's way too much effort

you can do it! stay strong gorgeous!!!! distract yourself- get up and walk or run in place, do some jumping jacks, chew some gum, brush your hair, take a shower, pain your nails....keep yourself busy!
the average craving doesn't last long- so if you distract yourself during that short time, you won't give in! Stay strong! i believe you can quite!
