Just thought I would keep you up to date, it's been 20 days since my last cig.... How is everybody else getting on. I wish you all well and hope that you are managing to stay clear or cut back on the dreaded weed.

10 days now since my last ciggy, and I am feeling quite good about it, I am still getting the urge to have one, but I try to think of other things till it passes, and thankfully it does, so keep up the good work all who have stopped or has cut right back.

Brilliant Linda, to go from 40 to just 2..... what an achievement ....Go girl Go.....

I have just had my first smoke free day, yesterday afternoon I had to sit on my hands, I asked my daughter Amanda if she had chopped up my last ciggy,
at that time she hadn't....... but I thought no!!!! I will make a card, looked at my cds and picked out the Joannas, The Cardmakers Year, picked an image from April, and made my card.......... heres to the next 24 hours.

Thanks...

Just wanted to wish the smoke quitters good luck today. How are you all doing?
When I gave up I cut up carrots and celery into cigarette shaped sticks and when I would usually go outside for a smoke, I still took the 2 minutes and went outside and nibbled on the sticks instead. I found that taking the break and walking about a bit actually reduced some of the tension you feel in that first week. I did get a few comments like - are you smoking a carrot?
Good luck,
love Ali x
