The nicotine is out of your system in a few weeks. What is harder to overcome is the habit. When I quit I was in a high stress job and when ever I received a phone call, it was usually a problem calling and I would light a cigarette. I had to constantly remind myself. A big factor was I did not want to go through the last day again on the second day and the last 2 days again on the third day. I kept doing this until the urge was gone. Another hard part was being around people who smoked. The smell really got to me. Then I would light a cigarette but not inhale. Yes it helped when the urge was really strong, not to inhale. The next day I was not into the nicotine again.
