7 Months Today

7 months ago, on a Saturday (23rd Feb) i attended an Allen Carr stop smoking course in Glasgow.

I didn't really think , beign truthful, that i would stop after it but i had paid my money and decided to give it a shot.

I don't know what happened (i have some idea's about it but thats for another day) but here i am 7 months down the road today and i have not had one ciggie, or even one puff.

And it feels BRILLIANT!!!!

I would never have thought i could get this far......i was a commited smoker for 30 years, 25 a day for the last few of them (thats scary) but i know now that i will NEVER TAKE ANOTHER PUFF!!!!.

And i know its a cliche but if i can do it then anyone can!!!!!

Stay strong everyone

Well done. 7 months is a long time and a big acheivment.

You sound very positive and it is posts like these that help those of us still in the early stages.

Don't get me wrong, I am very confident that I can do this... that I WILL do this, but sometimes it hard to see past the here and now.

Well done once more.

Keep up the great advice to the rest of us.

Don't think we'll ever have to come round and "chagi" your butt. (TKD reference :rolleyes:)

Cheers

Way to go John!

Who would have thought it eh?

Be REALLY proud of yourself.

And don't let the taunts about you equator-esque-like waistline get you down.
