Good News On Week 4

[nsd_user663_1931]

Hi Everyone

I`m starting week 4 today and just wanted to share my thoughts.

I have been thinking about those dam cigs everyday , all day. I couldn`t stop thinking about them , about how much i would enjoy one , especially last week. I worked out that when i`m excited about something . stressed or busy that is when i most smoked. As i have been decorating for the last week , i thought alot about cigs.

Last night after decorating for 5 hours and had been in bed for a few hours , i said to hubby [PHP]" i havn`t thought about cigs at all for the last 7 hours ".[/PHP]

That is a big step for me. Constantly thinking about them has nearly made me smoke again.:eek:

I hope from now on i will think less and less about them.I wont get to smug as i know old nic can jump out of nowhere when your least expecting it.

I`m on my way though.

It has taken alot of fighting against giving in , but now seems worth it.

I look forward to hearing that you are doing well and it will get better.

It has been a struggle for me, not easy at all ,but now seeing benefits. Not coughing anymore.

HI Barb

Know exactly what your feeling My mind is my biggest thing. To be fair things do get a lot easyer but I have cryed a lot in the last 16 weeks just trying to fight not to have a fag dont get me wrong I still dont think i have cracked it. But now When i think about them its not in the same way dont really know how to explain it just easyer. I smoked 40 a day for 32 years so I think its a big part of our lives we have to change just some times its bloody hard and maybe we blame all our bad moods on wanting a bloody fag. Hope you understand what I am trying to say Barbs Stay strong together we can all do this Love Linda xxx

Thanks Buffy , Linda and Joan

Buffy---The weeks have gone by quickly. Seems like only gave up a week ago.:cool:

Linda---I understand you perfectly. We are on the same wavelength. Before when i thought about smoking , the thoughts would last forever and ever.

Now they pop in my brain and out as quickly as they appeared. Its easier to banish those thoughts now.

I`m so glad i`v got friends like you all to help and support me.

Love Barb x

Ps Still not thinking about them. Had a really good day today, smoking wise.
