It;s going fine............

[nsd_user663_4398]

Hi all my new buddies,

It's the start of day four and I can honestly say..........In all my previous quit attempts (even my six month quit) I never felt as good as I do this time.

Does that mean I'm really ready to say goodbye to cigs for ever?? I HOPE SO.

I know I could be just round the corner from a bad day, or start to feel crap, but so far so good. I prefer to think it's cos I REALLY NEVER WANT TO SMOKE AGAIN.

I said yesterday about not wheezing and needing to use my inhaler, why did I kid myself for two years that it wasn't the smoking that was doing it?? Because I still wanted to smoke, that's why. Now, I'm no way in a position to brag yet, but anyone thinking of attempting a quit, I say........GO ON, YOU CAN DO IT.

And by the way.....This is THE BEST forum for help and encouragement.

Thanks everybody. Love J. x x x

Hi J,

So pleased you are doing so well. Day 4 is important cos the general agreement is that it gets easier after day 3. Brilliant that you have arrived at day 4 and feel so positive.

Every quit is different, we all have our own experiences. I found Day 2 and 3 quite easy - feelings of euphoria and happiness. Since then I have had good and bad times - but in many ways it has got harder and harder. Which sometimes seems a bit unfair!!!

But I know if I can get through one day at a time and not touch a single damned coffin nail, then gradually my quit will extend and get easier. But I'll never let my guard down.

All strength to you, I hope it stays fine for you, and you do look like you are not counting any chickens yet.

Keep strong - keep going.

I'm no way in a position to brag yet

Why not? You have broken free of an addiction that kills 2000 every week in the UK. What better reason to brag? Stay free, and keep feeling superior.... brag forever!

but anyone thinking of attempting a quit, I say........GO ON, YOU CAN DO IT.

Well said!

That looks like me and your son have something other than a name in common... I am also very proud of my Mum (MargaretH - also on here and just past 19 weeks quit).

Keep it going

Hi J,

Well done and I'm glad your feeling so positive!

As your one day ahead of me I like to keep up to date on your threads so I have an idea of whats to come the next day

Keep it up!

[nsd_user663_4398]

Hey Lottie,

Oh my god, now I have to be on my best behaviour knowing you are folowing me, ha ha.

I promise to be honest about everyday I am quit, good and bad. Well done you for deciding to quit again. I've had three or four attempts myself, best one was six months, so I've got a way to go yet. I'm sure we will both be happier and healthier for the decision to quit, and that has to be good.

Margareth, Ha ha ha, I had to laugh when you said give little Stuart a hug, he is 25yrs old and 6ft 4ins. But big or little I will always hug him. My sons and thier partners mean the world to me, and now that I have kicked the cigs,

we are a NON SMOKING FAMILY. love to all. J.x

[nsd_user663_3728]

Hi J

Sorry I somehow imagined he was a little boy but being as he is big even more of him to hug HA HA and WOW a smoke free family, we're not quite that as my youngest is still puffing away for now, but he'll quit when he's ready as we did

Love

Marg xxxxxxxxxxxx

[nsd_user663_4420]

Hey! It is no about braging, I think! I keep thinking the same, but then I say to may self I have the right to be happy and proud for my decision and for what is happening to me. And in order to succeed you do have to be positive! So enjoy your day and the next to come! Well done! It gets easier, even though not always is going to be as good as now! But an atitude like your is the secret!

[nsd_user663_4425]

Hey J,

Haha, yeh you better be good! I'm your stop smoking stalker now!

6 months is great and if you done it before you can do it again...this time permenantly and we definatly be happier and healthier.......and richer

It's a day 4 party, non-smokers invited!

Woohoo J, this thread is a real party! :cool: *turns up the music*

We can enjoy the fun without having to go out every 45 minutes to pay for the priviledge of doing ourselves in.

We are healthy

We don't smoke

Our bodies are temples

Not the 'butt' of a joke

Haha, bit of poetry for y'all.

Well I can't wait for day 5, it's just round the corner, woot!
