As Me and my quit move towards 2009, it seems that I am moving into (or at least towards) the stage of acceptance.
I am actually starting to feel like a non smoker. The intense feelings that come with the quit have gone, both the great things (the exhultation, the excitment, the sheer joy of each day beaten) and the not so good things (the problems associated with the body adjusting to life without ciggies) are going away now and I am starting to really feel like my old smoking life is nothing but a memory. That can only be a good thing!
I shall still be as vigilent as ever, as I have no doubt I have some tough times to come - and as always "just one" will lead me straight back to the beginning, somewhere I am determined to never find myself again!
I see that as a really nice way to start 2009! Happy New Year Everyone!
Stuart, in my 110th day free from tobacco.

Well done Stu, pretty safe to say you have got it licked!
While I will never be safe, I think I am at a point where as long as I remember that I must never smoke.... I will be fine. Nothing except me can make me smoke anymore. It's great to finally be in control.
