Just a quickie, as they say, i have reached six weeks today. The reason it is significant for me is that my dad, who quit bout 25 years ago, told me that he felt the first six weeks were the worst, and once he had done that he felt he had "cracked it".
So here I am dad, I "cracked it" too.
I can faithfully say there is no way I would be at this stage if it were not for this forum. All the people I have come across on here have helped me in some way. So thank you.
And to all the newbies, it is so worth it.

I am very proud of you, Bev. It was hard for you......... you got support here, and you listened to it. You set a date and here you are........... I am very pleased Great job, bud, you are doing very well xxx
Great story and congratulations on 6 weeks. I watch for your posts since we are so close in quit dates so keep it up. God I hope its like your dads quit LOL. Weeks 4 and 5 for me were sooooo easy and in the last 2 days I've been having SERIOUS cravings. No where near grabing fag(OK first time using that word, I'm American so that really sounds bad to me LOL)but man I'm thinking about it more then I have in 2 or weeks.Anyway I'd like to add thanks to the forms and everyone on them as well, A BIG PART of being able to keep away from smoking has been this form and the peeps on it.

Yeh, I know what you mean, about not going to have a cig (does that help) but just still craving. Fed up sometimes that I still have to fight everyday. We will get through this, lets face it six weeks done there is noway i am going to go through the last 6 weeks again. Not sure what time it is there, but have a good day, evening, night, morning???? oh bloody hell just have a great weekend!
6 weeks, what an achievement. Fantastic you are just damn marvellous You are my hero.
Why thank you young lady, but I do have to say that I am still a very long way from the Penthouse, and therefore please save some of you adulations for later.
Thanks a bunch and yea we will make it through. When I made the original post it was 2:45 AM on Thursday morning. I have no idea on the time difference but it sounds like it might have been around 7 or 9 am on Friday for you. You have a great weekend as well.
Glad to hear that you have got to week six and "cracked" it.
I too felt like that and still do, but just be on your guard, as you never know when complacency can strike. But I know you won't fail, jsut as I havent.
