nsd_user663_1732

Jan,

Thats absolutely brilliant, 119 days I can`t wait to get that far.

Are you still having good and bad days? it interesting to see how craves affect us even though we`ve been quit for quite a while.

I think the reason I find it so hard is its like somethings missing all the time, Im hoping that will pass after a while.

Well done you once again.:)

You know, I think when it comes down to it, that truely is the crux of it all. The all too consuming feeling that we are missing out on something. Like our life isn't complete anymore...its hard to explain. Once we can get rid of that feeling I'm sure everything would fall into place alot easier.

nsd_user663_1732

Hi Maddy you`re so right, I just feel empty without it, like theres a nothing to look forward too.

How stupid is that, to feel that way about a fag.

We have to just fight nic all the way, he defo wants to win us back.:)

hi thats the way i feel something missing all the time .yesterday was bad i was going to smoke but it passed .im just taking it one day at a time i have good days and bad days .

nsd_user663_2931 profile image
nsd_user663_2931

I guess we just relied on our nicotine fix so heavily that now we don't smoke anymore it seems like a part of our life has just 'gone'. No more nic fixes. No more hand to mouth habit. No more falling back on something when times are hard. No more anything!! arrghhhh

But! We shall beat this. All of us. We have to, we can't be dictated to by a nasty evil drug. We should be in control of our own minds and not some zombie answerable to some horrible weed :mad:

So, upwards and onwards! :D

nsd_user663_1732

Jan, same for me, wanted to smoke yesterday, last weekend, sundays are the worst, too much time on my hands.

When im at work all week its not so bad, then I get home and straight away its Mr nic reminds me of what im missing.

My biggest regret is ever having smoked I was 14 and it made me feel ill, but no, I carried on trying it until I was hooked ah well.

50 days tomorrow without one I can do this.:)

Absolutely onwards and upwards, we can do this, this is what this forum is all about, supporting each other through the good and bad.

If we continue to do that we can`t go far wrong.

We have a great team of members, and we are all going to achieve the ultimate goal which is to rid ourselves of this horrible addiction.:)

Jude - stay strong. I know it can get really difficult but remember you can do it :) Open that easter egg a little bit earlier?

I went for a dentist check up this am and was really pleased when he told me my gum condition was great (I had issues in the past) - stopping smoking is great for teeth too!

Still - a lot of that money I am saving from cigarette buying will have to go to my teeth...argh.

Cannot wait to jet off tomorrow

Jude and all the team - have a great easter weekend - and I'll be back next Wednesday.

Hi Everyone - I'm back, fully rested, tanned and chuffed with myself coz I never had a ciggie. God it was bloody hard those first few days, especially sharing an apartment with four smokers, but I did it:D:D. Got a certificate off the nurse yesterday - I am now officially an ex-smoker now. On 10 mg patches now for a fortnight. It seems to get easier as time goes on but still have the odd craving - thank goodness for the inhaler;)

Hi Jude - keep your chin up babe we are all thinking of you and think of the great weekends you will have with your son.

Hi Cat - hope you have a brill holiday and just think you won't have any probs with your breathing when your skiing. I didn't when I woz going up to the apartment in Tenerife - we were higher up this time - the others all had to stop to get their breath back:cool:

Hope everyone has a good Easter weekend. As I have just got back to work I think I'd better get on and do some catching up. Will look in before I go home.

want2win is still winning!

Hey everyone, haven't been around much. I've missed all of you, but I'm still very much a part of Team 10 Strong!

I'm still in the race! Today marks my 60th day!

(boy oh boy, do I know about that feeling, mentioned earlier in this thread...like I'm missing something! Just hits me out of the blue sometimes.)

Some days are still harder than others, but I manage. My 1st real test came yesterday, when my brother came over to pick me up. He asked if I'd be ok with him lighting one up in the car...I hesitated but told him its ok. He smoked a few puffs and put it out. We went to the store, where I could've easily gone and bought myself several packs/or a carton. But...I DID NOT DO IT. Matter of fact, my cravings didn't even haunt me the rest of the day.

Robertb, don't beat yourself up. Just get back up on the horse and ride. Take one day at a time, you know you've got support here.

Hugs to everyone! :)

I have been quit for 2 Months, 3 hours, 38 minutes and 58 seconds (60 days). I have saved $65.25 by not smoking 300 cigarettes. I have saved 1 Day and 1 hour of my life. My Quit Date: 1/22/2008 1:00 PM
