Going into Week 4!!!!!

Well, it is Friday and over the weekend I will be going over the hill and into week 4.

I can't quite believe how fast time is now going and it only seems like I stopped smoking a couple of days ago!!

The sleeping is well sorted out now, infact, I am sleeping like a baby but feeling refreshed when I wake.

Weekends tend to be a bit more difficult and I still get a bit edgy in the mornings (so I tend not to hang around the house and go out instead which is no bad thing).

There is still a very small part of me that misses cigarettes at certain points (usually connected with strong feelings such as intense happiness or sadness)

but I will always choose to stay smoke free as I really do understand that no matter what I think right now, there is absolutely no reason on earth to go back to smoking and I will see the light eventually as time moves on and the un brainwashing takes place.

Plus, I have saved around £100 already!!!!

I think it is really funny how I must have been in denial for years! By that I mean I would go to the shop every day and buy a packet of 20 ciggies at nearly a fiver a throw. Why didn't I buy them once a week - £35 per trip or........even worse........once a month (shock, horror £140 per month).

No, because I would have felt even worse and an even bigger fool if I had to face up to that one!!!:eek:

Of course, it would be so much easier if I had never smoked!!!!:rolleyes:

I'm impressed with your attitude, it does seem that you have the resolve to stick at this and make it permanent.

Congratulations.

Wouldnt it be lovely

wouldnt it be great if we never smoked. my brother has never had a tab in his life and it falls on deaf ears when i tell him how lucky he is. Nothing to give up, nothing to crave, nothing to miss... 2008 is my year and i hope it is yours too... I WILL NEVER SMOKE A CIGARETTE AGAIN. NEVER EVER ... Forget this Credit Crunch talk, 2008 is the year we will all beat it and look back on as a great year... Have a great weekend...
