Committed 9 Whole Weeks

Tomorrow will be 9 entire weeks since I quit smoking. It hasn't been as difficult as I thought- though I am still using commit nicotine replacement lozenges a little more heavily that I am supposed to at this stage. This is the longest I have gone without smoking since I first started smoking in college. Believe me, I have prayed a lot which is the only reason I can think of for my success thus far this time around. I have quit a few times for about 4 months at a time, but even then I would occasionally succumb to the temptation and have a cigarette or cigar. This time has been different! I am feeling hopeful, which for someone as characteristically pessimistic as me, is a wonderful feeling!
According to the commit box, it takes about 12 weeks to wean yourself off nicotine which seems about right. My new question is how can you wean yourself off food? It's a hard habit to break because you can't go cold turkey on food for very long. My husband and I have decided to lose weight so that we can maybe try for another baby in the near future. The sad thing is we know all it takes is exercise and better eating habits, but we have as of yet figured out how to implement such skills into our everyday life. So, for now I am working on just one bad habit at a time.
