you're like stars
so..
I'm trying to quit smoking.. again.
(I dunno if that's a hooray yet)
I'm really weary because I'm a big time replacer- and a bad replacer. I can NOT get super fat again. I won't allow it. I've worked too hard too long.. I am STILL working LOL.. I'm not undoing all of this.. Anyway.. last time I "quit" in july I totally replaced it with candy and cheese.. which is bad bad. Cheese is evil.. and well candy isn't exactly a saint.

So anyway..
I went to the market today.. and stocked up on gum.. and fresh fruits and veggies.. and luna bars (those were helpful before LOL).. and.. lots of really good drinks.. including my new favorite drink EVER

(this is not my piccie.. but the weird birds on her shirt made her a must post)

I'm pretty sure this is the greatest drink ever. I am going to marry it. and it's high in protein, which I need of course.. so...... little rewards.. little replacements. These things could work.. maybe. Though the gum I bought is crap. I have YET to find a gum I like.. LOL wth.. This is like my 3rd kind in the past 24 hrs.. give me gum suggestions pleaaase! (this one.. the gross one.. is stride always mandarin.. it tasted good at first.. but as the flavour fades -which takes like 10 minutes- it starts tasting like.. sugary plastic. no bueno.)
 
oooh that does sound nummy.

I'm a HUGE replacer too. I quit smoking, took up food, then took up digiscrapping, and now I'm addicted to iced coffee. No joke.

My favorite gum ever is Extra Supermint. SO good and it lasts forever.
 
Hm.... good gum.... My sister swears by Stride Mojito. But the flavor probably runs out fast. I like Trident (its sugar-free which is good for your teeth). Oh, and WinterFresh is long-lasting.

GL!!
 
I like the Trident Splash Summer Spearmint. It's Spearmint and Watermelon, and it sounds odd, but it's seriously awesome and lasts forever. The Trident Splash Vanilla/Mint is also yummo but I don't see it on their American site, so I don't know if you can get that or not.

Anyway, you rock, and you can do it!
 
oh my gosh!!! YUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUM!!! i need to find those drinks?? are they organic?

gum suggestions...you like sweet gum? minty gum? what?? i love orbit and extra brands. they last FOREVER. i also like both of those brands' bubblegum flavors. they remind me of my childhood, they are as sweet as candy and they last for hours. seriously. i through my gum out because i get bored of chewing and it still tastes yummo. i also like the new orbit MIST watermelon spring. it's like an explosion of yumminess.
 
I love those Bolthouse drinks, super yummy! I find that minty gum keeps the flavor the longest, any fruity kind seems to get that crap plastic taste super quick. I like Stride in the minty flavor.
 
I heart those bolthouse drinks. Yummy!!!

I am a gum addict. :) Especially @ work. I have Dentine Spicy Cinnamon, Orbit White Bubblemint, Extra Watermelon (okay, but icky after a while) and my all time fruity gum fav is Ice Breakers Ice Cubes in Strawberry. PERFECT for bubble blowing and lasts a while. I also bought 3 hour mints from Target yesterday & have yet to try them. They are by Breathsavers.

Have you tried suckers? I love me a yummy sucker.

Go La! You can so do it. :)
 
I agree, that is probably one of the best drinks EVER. There's a chocolate mocha one too(I think) that is super delicious as well...
 
Ice breakers are awesome in any of the sweet flavors. Watermelon, strawberry and raspberry!! BIG RED THE BEST EVER!! Juicyfruit is yummy too. I have no recomendations on any mint type gums because it makes me nauseous. Not sure why. I cant even use mint toothpaste. I have to buy cinnamon or citrus. My daughter goes through like a pack of gum a day so Ill ask her I think she has some favorites. I also like these ones: 5 Gum
 
Chai is one of our favorites, so I'll look for this at Henry's and see if they have it.

The only gum I chew (and I have gum in my mouth 90% of my waking hours), is Orbit Sweet Mint. LOVE it!!

and congrats La. I really hope for success for you. I am absolutely shocked that my 21 yo son has done so well. He even went to a party last Sat night, and no smoking or drinking. (him...everyone else was!!)
 
oh and the pink and yellow are the ones I like of 5 Gum. Both really good. Another thing I would suggest is lifesavers. Not so bad for you because they dont have a ton of calories if you get sugarfree and they have some yummy flavors
 
I'm not a big gum chewer, but I usually have Extra BubbleMint in my purse for the nieces and nephews, and it's always been a huge hit with any adults I give a piece to. I love it too, I just find I can't chew any gum for very long. It's one of the few I'll actually keep chewing for a while.
 
That looks yummy!

I'm a big bubble blower, so I like the sugar free Bubbilicious gums. (LOL, sometimes I think I must still be 12.) I've never smoked, but I sometimes suck on hard candies to resist the temptation to snack. If you're having trouble finding a good gum, maybe that would work better for you.
