    And I'm Off - Weeeeeee!!!!!

    :)http://smilies.sofrayt.com/fsc/bye.gifHello Everybody

    I hope this finds you all very well, healthy and happy in the land of Quit!

    Today is my day 1 - and am feeling very positive and determined that this quit is going to be the one that lasts.

    I still have my whirlwind blowing me about but will stand firm like a tree with its roots deep in the ground. There is no option but to quit and that is the long and short of it.

    NS4M thank you so so so much my buddy for looking out for me and being so kind. Yous are the best. I will catch you later on the night shift!!! Insomnia rules - still!!!

    Really delighted to see Pupalup (Fairygodmother) and Linda back and we are all quitting on the same day - come on girlies we can do it together!!http://i115.photobucket.com/albums/n292/pjmailings/smilies/cheerleader.gif

    So in commemoration of Day 1 for everyone who has achieved Day 1 or Achieving Day1 or thinking about achieving Day 1 .......a bit of YouTube (sorry guys - I just lurve the YouTube)http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GSADxMocaHs

    Hopes you are all so so so well and happy to be back with you all again.

    Big Hugs

    Dear NS4M

    Do you know I feel really good at the moment - not missing or craving a smoke. Just pleased to have packed up again. Did not enjoy smoking over the last few weeks but found it to be the crutch I needed to get through - though I appreciate a bad crutch - but a necessity for the time.

    How are you petal? How are all your lovely brood? I hope your stepson has made a full recovery now. You are doing so well hun I am so proud of yous.

    Big Hugs

    Thanx Poppy . Read your msg. Gosh I can't explain my feelings on this quit. After my disastrous holiday I thought I would be smoking till I popped my clogs,although I truly wished I wasnt. Luckily I work in the same building as the drs (where my friend is the nurse) It was her who suggested the champix. I confess I was a bit wary after the previous bad reaction to zyban but she AND

    my Dr assured me it would be ok. Maybe I'd just had enough of trying to quit,maybe it was the champix or maybe I found more wilpower - whatever it ws it seems to doing a damn fine job. I've had a few craves (but not as many as in previous quits) I don't get nauseous but I sometimes suffer from a slight headache.Nothing major though. All in all though,I feel pretty damn good!http://smilies.sofrayt.com/^/r/dance.gif

    Thanks so much all of you, I really appreciate the messages.

    The insmonia has reverted back to being bad through the night so sleep for one hour wake up toss and turn ever since. Woke up at 4am and thought I should get up but didn't just laid in bed having mad 'thinking time' - ie about celebrity scissor hands - did you watch that with Stevie Strange?? Totally bonkers!!

    So got up at 5am and been doing loads of stuff which I have needed to get done which is the good thing about being up while everyone else is asleep.

    Ahhh well it is all part of getting rid of the poisons in my bod so looking at it as a positive thing - I know by day 52 sleeping should be a bit better!! Until then this will probably be me at intermittent moments during the day......

    Have a great day all of yous. I will be preparing for the Halloween party we are having for the kiddies on Wednesday - lots of glue, sticking, painting and glittering - hoorah and the mess afterwards is even better!
