Nika! 16 Days! Now that is something impeachable. Something tangible. Something real. 16 days. Great congratulations. What a wonderful accomplishment.

Sorry you had a tough one today. I can't answer about the cravings. They ebb and flow, but they certainly lessen with time. To this day, I take a strong slug of cranberry juice when a strong craving comes (although, the literature tells me the physical detox/cravings are a thing of the past given our day counts). The cranberry juice helps with blood sugar drops tied to the nicotine. Water also seems to help with cravings. Whatever it takes with the knowledge that the urge/craving will past whether you smoke or don't smoke. So don't smoke (just like you've been doing so wonderfully for the last 16 days).

In any event, you're over the hump and the smokes will get smaller in the distance with each day you keep them down.

Keep doing what you're doing, Nika. Takes a winner to get to 16 days. A superstar to hit 17 tomorrow.

Continued success and, again, great congratulations to you.
