:eek: really cant believe i have got to 21 days starting the 4th week tomorrow.. i really thought that i was weak enough to let the nicotine over take me for the rest of my life... but i have proved to myself that i can beat this and that it would not take over... i hated the fact that i would smell of smoke and was constantly aware and ashamed of it to.. in my job i meet a lot of clients and i would always be thinking right if i have a fag now hopefully by the time i meet them the smell would have gone.. it was crazyness that it consumed my mind more then i realised and at 27 years old my priorty shouldnt have been when i can smoke my next fag!!!

it has been a rollercoster ride for me one that i have not enjoyed one bit which is why i never want to go back to day 1 again...

in a way this experience is not just about quitting smoking for me its taught me that if there is something in my life that i dont like then i do have the strength to change it im stronger then i thought i was..... :)

Well done to you, and yes, I agree, it does make you stronger in other areas of life too! More confidence, more direction and more time for yourself and those important to you. Well done! x

Hi Jewls :D

3 weeks that's great well done you and just see what you can do if you try I think the fact that you were constantly aware of how you smelt when around others has helped and you have every reason to be proud of yourself

Love
