To all of my brothers,
I have been trying different things to help me sleep during these very rough first couple of weeks. I go to the gym and lift weights, I go for lots of walks, I work on my motorcycle, and I have even changed my diet. All of things have helped out some what. The diet thing and going to the gm have helped the most in not gaining weight while I quit, but nothing has really helped the sleeping issue. I went to Super Supplements and was talking with the girls there about what I could take that would help me sleep but be non habit forming and maybe help my body recover from the workouts. I was given a product call ZMA (zinc magnesium and vitiam B). I have been taking it at night and I have had better sleep. This is only my exprience but if you are struggling to sleep try it. I have also noticed that my legs are not quite ase restless when I take the ZMA
I'm on day 12 of my quit, and for some damn reason I have absolutely no ambition to work out or run. Kind of pisses me off because I wanted to use workouts as a way to pass the quit time, but one thing at a time I guess. I usually hit the gym 4-5 days a week and run 12-15 miles a week, but not since the quit started. I suppose I'll force the issue for myself soon and start taking advantage of the nic free life. Any thoughts?
