Quit (7th time) Smoking

Yes. This is my 7th try to quit smoking and passed 96 hours. Last time, almost year ago, i tried and fell apart after 4 months. But this time something positive catalysts are working, they are

A) new workplace, no smoking buddies
B) i have a solid plan
C) this is my father's day resolution to my kids
D) i announced it thru blog so everybody knows it,now i have a morale obligation to follow what i preach :-)

Previous times, i was not following solid plans, i didn't use "stop smoking aids" completely and once in a while, i smoked one or two puffs or a cigarette here and there. Most of the times, i quit because of external forces but this time "some force" triggering from internally.

Last 96 hours or so, i felt like my sugar level dropped completely, dizziness, forgot to press correct floor number in elevator, food tastes bad and blah...blah...blah. i couldn't even blog, getting sleep at 8.00PM. But now all are back to normal, i can type blog and not sleepy. One feeling though, how come all are inside home/office, all the time without going out for a fresh air. Is it normal or only i'm thinking that way?
