Bicycling

Just came back from bicycling and it felt good. After a month of non-smoking I can feel that I am stronger without a lot of effort. While bicycling I do not have a lozenge in my mouth. One of the side effects of the lozenges is that it can increase the heart rate. Of course being on the bicycle increases the heart rate naturally. I do however chew gum, which is usually some type of gum that whitens the teeth. It was hot out there today so the gum also helped to alleviate the cottonmouth. There were not a lot of cravings to smoke today. However I don't think I am "out of the woods " so to speak as far as the cravings go.
