Day 5 for me

Still hanging in there. Yesterday was pretty horrible. That gnawing feeling in my stomach started and just didn't stop even though most of the nicotine should have been out of my system. Anyway I didn't smoke so I am still here and pleased to say that feeling is not there today so fingers crossed that it has passed. I didn't expect day 4 to be the worst but there you go, we're all different.

Hi Freespirit,

Well done on reaching day 5. Don't you just love the guys on here for positive feedback on days I was feeling low and negative and thinking I can never do this, I came on here and within a few minutes I was back up being positive again. Keep it up xx

Day 6

Again, thanks to everyone for the support. I feel a lot better to day apart from a sore throat which began yesterday. Almost lunchtime here and I haven't had a notion for a ciggy. Still thinking about it all the time but not actually wanting one.

Hi FreeSpirit :D

Glad to hear you feel better today except for a sore throat also pleased you don't want a fag even though you think about them just now

Soon you'll start to think about them less and less often just hang in there

Love

Hi Freespirit,

Well done on Day 6. The sore throat will ease up I'm sure, and all the more quickly for not dragging disgusting smoke through it.:D

Stay strong

Day 7

Good morning all,

I am on day 7 and feeling good and positive. Sore throat starting to improve slowly (hubby says that's what happens when I don't have a coating of tar on it).
