Cigarettes 72 and 73

Went for a bike ride first thing this morning. Before I smoked. Simple steps like these are going to make all the difference when I finally quit. 
I used to smoke first thing in the morning, before I did anything. Then I started eating something before I smoked. I'm never hungry first thing, so I had to eat something simple and easy to digest. I decided to eat a banana a day. It took me months just to get into the habit of eating a banana every morning. I know how hard change can be, introducing even the smallest change into my day can take loads of practice before it becomes an acquired habit. Now, it's natural, it's the first thing I do. It took a long time to get here. It seems picking up bad habits is simple, while developing healthy habits takes time and dedication.
