8 Hours
It's been hour 8 and according to various web sites, nicotine and carbon monoxide levels in my blood reduce by half, and my oxygen levels return to normal. It's always nice to have mile stones to count this early in the process.
There have been many cravings over the last eight hours, two of which were very strong. I know from my last attempt to quit about the sore throat coming up around the one week mark. I think thats probably worse than the cravings, but thats what happens when a layer of protective mucus in your throat suddenly goes away and the flesh is exposed to air and other elements it's been protected from for years and years…
Anyway…I march forward…
Stay strong!
