Well i can't believe i am on day 5 already - well i can't believe i am here at all!!

Apart from the horrendous day 3, i have been coping quite well, but aware not to become too cocky/complacent as i know there will be bad days ahead!

Hope you're still here Mark?

Next milestone one week - bring it on!!!

:D

Bring it on!

I've notice in life that if you want to do something, do it and time takes care of the rest.

Quitting smoking

Getting Fit

Learning something new

DIY

Once you get going and keep going time really does fly by. I found that once past the first week, week three comes up real quick

Keep going...you are an inspiration

Yay for day 5 - feeling the same as you, but with slight trepidation about the weekend... no beer, no cigs, will end up with a very clean house I think!

Good work and well done to all who've made it this far! :)

well done on your day 5. The first week is definitely the worse. Then you have all of the benefits to look forward to.

Keep it up

Thanks all

Feeling very positive today, all this encouragement helps more than you know!!

The weekend is looming, but won't think about it yet - one day at a time for now!!

This week has gone really quickly, all things considered, i would have thought it would drag. Bring on week 2 and beyond, that's what i say.

Take care and keep strong all! :D

Went to the pub for a drink.....

......or two. One Friday lunchtime habit i am not ready to give up!! Didn't have a cigarette and actually felt sorry for my smoking friend who went out in the rain just to feed his addiction. I always said i would never be one of those smug ex smokers, but hey ho!!!

Ha ha!:D

Well done Beccy, well done all of us who have made it through these first few difficult days. Seems to be quite a few Feb newbees, maybe we should form a little gang to keep the long term'ers in order:rolleyes: would have to find a name of course. Open to suggestions guys and gals.

Bring on the weekend and the start of another week free of this bloody

addiction.

I am not going to smoke today!!!!

No, still here, had a bit of drama last night:o I put my script in for some more Champex and was told 30 mins, said i would call back later, when i went back they said they had runout of Champex but would have some in today. I was ok last night without a tab, but this morning i was a bit twitchy as i watched my OH rolling up one of her pentonville pencil's:eek: I was outside the Chemist most of the morning, waiting for the delivery arrive:o

on nights tonight so i will need them!!

I Feel Good:cool:

I know the feeling....

I had to get mine yesterday morning, and they had ran out of champix, but luckily they got me some to keep me going! Picked the other pack up this morning!!

Miracle tablets i think!! Glad you're still doing well - any names for our Feb Quitters group yet??

BeccyBoo Ooh, you doin the doin the doo!!! :) Well done :)

Day 5 :) you're through the worst days now, and you do right to keep your guard up, you'll have some great easy days and some days not so good, but you take them all as they come. None of the discomfort of quitting will damage your health, it will only benefit it. So its all worth it, every bit.

You come out the other side smiling and sticking your two fingers up at the nicotine demon, this will not beat you!
