20th Jan.


Now on day 113 of not smoking. The trouble is that I cannot let go of the thought of the things.

I know I will crave for ages and now they are ok, not as intense as they were. I have now stopped pulling my hair out and thinking murderous thoughts. lol Not funny at the time though.

But why do I keep thinking of cigs?

I suppose the reason is that I had smoked for a very long time and kind of miss it.

I haven't set times for these thoughts. I would have thought that I would want one after a meal like I used to. But no, not all the time.

Ahh well, if I want to be an ex-smoker I will have to put up with the irritating thoughts.

99 Days. No cigs.


Goodness me, I have actually managed to not have a cig, not even one puff for 99 days. In an hour I will be on 100 days. I am amazed.

Not really proud as I would still like a cig, I think of them often. But now I don't crave as much as I used to.

I had "lost" my password to get on here so it wil be interesting for me to look back.

My last cig was on the 29th September. I smoked 20 over four days. They made me feel so ill too. I wonder why I didn't throw them away!

I never finished the full course of Champix either. I haven't had one of those since before the 1st November.

If quitting is your New Year's Resolution, go for it.
It does get easier. I had smoked for over 40 years. I had tried to stop many a time.

I can't say that I never will smoke again but I would be really stupid to do so.

Good luck.
I know New Year was on a Tuesday but this pic has it on a Thursday. lol
Many thanks to the poor nurse who saw me every Thursday. Many thanks to the wonderful friends I have made on http://www.stayquit.co.uk/
Good advice and support from other quitters. No one judges you. Well worth a try if you are quitting.
