Day 2

Got through day 2 with no nicotine. Physically it seems to be getting easier. However, it was a bit rougher today due to anxiety. 

That had nothing to do with cigarettes. Just some really frustrating people on the phones.

Still feel slightly foggy. That's the worst part and the thing which most makes me have an urge to smoke. If that fades away, that will be when I am over the nicotine. 

Combination of physical and chemistry stresses is messing with my sleep schedule and making me sleep a lot. In this case, at least I know why and know it's temporary. Though part of it could also be the Chantix. In a few more days, I'm going to start dropping the dosage on it to taper off of it.

One nice improvement from gastric healing is that I am not biologically dehydrated all the time any more. That's a good indication that things are improving at the cellular level.  

Regaining an appetite and have gained a few pounds. Not a lot and not a negative in my own view. Back to around 170, which is what I consider to be my healthy weight range.
