Well guys seems I've actually managed not to smoke a whole 2hrs!!!!!(91/2hrs if you count last night asleep!lol).I've binned all my smoking rubbish (ashtrays lightersetc) and I've had myself a nice hot shower to get rid of any smoke stink on me.Feelng ok at the moment - I remember I was very edgy last time (maybe it was just the effect patches had on me) Anyway I seem to be much calmer (at the moment lol) .Maybe this zyban stuff isn't so bad after all!

harpe quick question --although I don't seem to be having craves to smoke I wonder if you can tell me what to expect by way of nicotine withdrawl. ta.
Buffy yes sun is shining here. I was well chuffed with myself earlier as I managed to feed the fish outside WITHOUT wanting to light up(I thought this would be a problem what with me only smoking in the garden) However I needn't have worried as I felt nothing. Just got to get the rest of the pyschological "triggers" out of the way ie coffee = fag ads on tv = fag etc
I'M doing unepectedly very well actually. Its quite suprising really. I guess its true what they say as in " different strokes for different folks" cos I have just been cooking dinner - roast beef et al and polished off two glasses of red wine.
Far from making me want to smoke they actually served to strengthen my resolve NOT TO! How strange is that cos everything you read on quitting says
avoid alcohol. If I have to quit fags I ain't quitting red wine as well!lol
If that turns out to be the case at least I'll have extra dosh to spend on a bottle (I knew I gave up fags 4 a reason lol) On a personal note hubby is going to San Francisco AGAIN (sounds familiar doesn't it?) Hes actually setting up a new dept in his firms US office -normally hes in London everyday. At least this time I will be more prepared. He doesn't go until 29th may so I should have over a week
under my belt. I don't envisage it will be as bad as last time (I hope!)
