Just realised that I am 5 days into month 3 (going by date).

Apart from feeling clean and fresh and loads of dosh saved, I'm not feeling to great, and I only hope it gets better soon. Despite having smoked heavily for so long, I have not even had a cough which surprises me.

54 days, almost 8 weeks, just under 2 months (1080 not smoked)

Not sure what sounds more positive days, weeks or months but not long and il have the choice of the 3-4th May will be 2 calendar months abstinent !!

Well done to you on your entry onto month 3, thats brilliant for you and think of how many cigs you've NOT smoked ? It's delightful to picture them all and throw the picture away cos it's not needed anymore....

I love counting mine in that way------1080 fags NOT burning my lungs !! Never dreamt I'd ever ever get here and with the total support of this forum I am already here !!!

Well done,

I only had a bit of a cough and that was short lived, so there is no guarantee.

While I did feel pleased to be a non smoker I really noticed the mprovement in how I felt after about 6 months.

Cheers

Hi Freshstart :D

Well done at the start of month 3 you're doing great,

Sorry you don't feel to good at the moment,but it takes time for the body to adjust and sometimes we don't realise that it's slowly getting better

One day you'll get up and realise HEY I FEEL GREAT

Love

Just need to be more patient then:D

Yes, it will probably take a month or so more.

I think for me it was that I was a physically fit smoker (but not healthy!) anyway I noticed around the 6 month point that my stamina and recovery rate is much better than before, but I do need more sleep :confused: having said that I used to get by on a 5 to 6 hours a night now I need 7 to 8 which I think is more normal.

Hi freshstart,

I like that "Just realised that I am 5 days into month 3" in your openeing to this thread. Sounds like it took you a bit by surprise - sounds like your thinking like a non-smoker :D

Excellent stuff - keep strong and keep it going.

Its lovely to see you here! There have been some ups and downs on the way! I too am disappointed to find I have yet another cold and startled to find that my chest feels worse than when I was a smoker and I can hardly breath.

Just getting over the sore throat which has been raging for nearly a month now. No cough just the sore throat which is annoying.

Hope everyone feels better really soon.
