Still going - but it does seem to be more of a struggle this time. Where are the lovely sunny positive feelings I'm sure I got last time?? :confused:
Day 6: Still going - but it does seem to be... - No Smoking Day
Day 6
Well Done hbav
Day 6 today that is fantastic!!smileys.smileycentral.com/c...
This time round of giving up I have asked myself the same question why is it harder. I have come to this conclusion. When I last gave up life was easier. This time round life is much harder and therefore giving is up is painful. It has shocked me to realise what an impact a cigerrette has had upon my emotional wellbeing, replacing the things I should have had for years, but was denied. The sweetness though hbav comes with each day you successfully complete because that day you will never have to do again. Tonight when Day 6 is finished you can think I will never have to do day 6 again. Tomorrow is week 1 finished so well done you.
Keep going - we're all here for you - and we must stick together as together we can beat the demon.
Have a great day and feel proud cos you've done marvellously.

Thanks - it really is so so so so helpful to have someone say 'well done'.
I suppose looking back over the weekend it hasn't been too bad. It was tough on saturday morning as I had a lot of stresses going on but I got through it and went on to have a pretty great day (watched bf playing football - nothing like watching men in shorts to distract you!) Best thing is that all weekend I smelt so lovely!
I need to remember to focus on the positive things - the benefits, the reasons for stopping, etc. - rather than feeling sorry for myself with no good reason.
Right - think I need to give myself a stern talking to!
Hi hbav
Don't beat yourself up about what you should be thinking/feeling. It can be a very emotional journey - I have cried more in the last couple of weeks than I have in years!!! The biggest positive thing for you is that the desire inside you to quit and be free is greater than the pull of the tobacco and that is the key for you succeeding - just keep that fire going in your belly.
I hope you have a pot to put your cash in and watch it mount up. You could either do this every day or week or month. But when you have a nice sum you can have a massive splurge on yourself cos you deserve it girl!!
And enjoy every moment of looking at those guys in shorts cos it must be a sure way to beat any craving - phwooor!!!!

I might add this to the 'tips' page as a surefire way to get people to forget all about smoking!
Oooo Yes hbav
You'll have to come on a general thread with us when a few more ladies are on cos all we do is talk about our favourite men celebs etc. ie which one would you choose
Johnny Dep or Ewan McGregor
Well I'm a Ewan fan everytime!!!! And Boudee is a Johnny fan all the way!!!
We also have a quiz on Friday nights which is really just an excuse to drink wine and have a laugh so you are very welcome to join us.
But it's great to have you with us hbav and share in your journey and remember we're all here for you rooting and willing you on.

(not quite got the legs though)
Hmm tricky choice - think it would have to be Johnny usually, or maybe Ewan in Moulin Rouge 'cos then he could sing to me! Maybe I could just have both as a treat for getting to day 6.
Will have to check out the general threads, although as I'm usually posting at work there's never too many other people around.
Ooooo yes hbav - both together now that would be a treat. But Ewan has to be in his kilt cos he looks hot in a kilt and Johnny as Captain Jack what a combination!!!!!
Mmmm......mmmmmmmm
Hee Hee
Poppyfairyxx
Well that seems to have done the trick, am feeling much brighter about things now!
ooooo yes indeedy hbav that's the ticket - the serious hunky dunky man game is the only way to go..........
Have a great afternoon!!!
Next Question..... Simon Cowell or Louis Walsh???
Hugs
Poppyfairyxx
Next Question..... Simon Cowell or Louis Walsh???
Do I really have to pick one??? I guess at a push it would have to be Louis as I really can't stand Simon - but I'd be thinking of Johnny Depp the whole time.
I think we should contact the NHS about our fantastic new stop-smoking aid. Once you start with the full-on lusting the cravings seem to go away.
Too Righ hbav!!!
I would have said Louis too.
Next one..............
Jamie Oliver or Gordon Ramsay???
Hugs
Poppyfairyxxx
Definitely Gordon - although I reckon he might be quite bossy. But that might not be such a bad thing
Ok, one for you then... Gordon Brown or David Cameron?
*&&^^%$%$£^&&*&
Cor hbav that is a bad one!!!! Are you sure about this??? Do I have to????
Have you picked one??
Poppyxx
Nope - I'm still reeling from the X factor one. This one's all yours!
I actually think Louis is a cutie so I could cope with that.... oooo you meanie!!!
Well, at an absolute desert island only man left on the planet situation, it would have to be ........ David Cameron bluech!!!
How could you do this to me????????
Right Revenge!!!!!
Mick Jaggar or Ossie Osbourne??? what do you say?
he he he
Poppyfairyxx
That is so mean!
If I really absolutely had no choice then maybe Mick Jagger - but the thought's making me feel a bit ill. How did we get to this from the delectable Johnny Depp????
Ok then... Johnny Vegas or Rowan Atkinson?
Hx
Oh Rowan Atikinson cos i'd get him to dress up as black adder as he was tasty then - not Mr Bean!!!
Ok nice one now........................
Va Va Voom Tiery Henri
or
David beckham
Popsx
Ooh that's tricky as well.
Beckham is a good looking boy but I can't help thinking he's a bit too pretty, plus I'd be worried about being compared to his missus as there's a hell of a lot more of me to get hold of!
So maybe Henry then - I could live with that. Va va voom it is then
Right... Jenson Button or Lewis Hamilton?
Hx
Ooooo Lewis Hamilton what a cutie fruitee
I'm a bit old for him but he's lovely eye candy!!!!
Ok........
Brad or Tom
Px
Definitely Brad. No competition on that one.
Sven Goran Erikson or Jose Mourinho?? (not sure I've spelt either of those right but you get what I mean!)
Oh a bit of Jose is fine by me.... he's quite fit and I like his accent too.
Right - this is qyite fun game see isn't it .........
Ant or Dec
Px
I'm not sure I know which is which?!? The shorter one that doesn't have such a huge forehead - whichever one that is.
Christopher Ecclestone or David Tennant?
Oooo both gorgeous Dr who's but it has to be David Tennant for me
how about you...
Right next one.....
Chris Moyles or Dermot o leary
Px
Would have to be Dermot O'Leary. Although bizarrely a while ago a mate of mine dreamt he attacked her and she's never seen him in the same way since. I should make it clear for legal reasons that that didn't actually happen - just her over-active imagination!
Prince William or Prince Harry?
