Lost count of days - help from lottie and mark needed

[nsd_user663_8123]

Lottie and Mark,

Are we on day 17 or 18. I think 18, but someone else has posted that they are on day 16 and they gave up on the 9th. :confused:

My brain isn't up to scratch today. I have only had one coffee and it wasn't very nice

Hope you are well by the way!!

Bonjour madame

... I make it day 18 as well - first rule of quitting, never doubt yourself.

Had to laugh about the random-boy-in-the-postroom in your list btw - had forgotten to include some random bloke from my local shop in mine!

REALLY hope that all dies down soon - not only can I not look my boss in the eye, I am also feeling slightly guilty when I'm with my bf!

Good news about your daughter, too - and how the hell have you managed to not put on any weight? I keep being told 'you look really well' - dunno if that means 'your skin looks better' or 'hello, fatty!'...? :confused:

Doesn't really matter for now I guess, the main thing is, we won't smoke today!

Very random

Good -18 it is then!!!

I knowso random, he brought a parcel up to my desk the other day and I went bright red!! I am old enough to be his mother. I wouldn't look at him twice any other time, but now i can't look at him at all!!

I have no idea how i haven't put on weight - i have eaten truck loads of food!!! It will probably sneak up on me though!!

No-one has said that to me yet - i may start fishing for compliments now!!

Nope, we won't smoke today!! xx

When i was nearer the start of my quit and was counting days rather than weeks (in the first month), i constantly had my calendar open (i double clicked the time at bottom right of my windows xp desktop).

now you quit on the 8th? at what time in the day did you have your last cig?

If you just took it literally as the date.. then quit on 8th (a monday), would mean each monday is a weekly milestone.. so this monday just gone would have been 14 days, and now being thursday.. 3 days after is 17 days.

So it whether you are 17 days or 18 depends on when you smoked your last cig.

but this is only if you want to be spot on precise.

If you've not got one already.. why not try quit counter from this site:

xarka.com/freeware/quitcoun...

It takes all the effort out of the counting up and gives you some nice encouragement along the way too

Ok nice and confused

My last cigarette was on Sunday 7th Feb, so my "day 1 of non smoking" was on 8th Feb so i counted Monday 15th as day 8, and monday 22nd as day 15 - so today is 18. 18 sounds better than 17 so will stick with that!!

Just tried downloading that, but our work network has stopped me, so i will do it at home!!

Thanks Jase!

That's how I worked it out too...

...last cig on Sunday night before bed, Day 1 of no smoking Monday 8th.. fast forward through the days and I make this day 18!

but what happens when we get to week 4, i.e. 3 weeks since we stopped smoking?!

Oh dear... :confused:

Good, we'll stick with that!!

18 is a day further than 17 so i like.

Hi Beccy,

I am on day 18 But only 1 puff away from day one:eek:

As the quit goes on its easy to forget why were doing this, fags arn't so bad, just one won't hurt, it was easy to give up this time so i should be ok to smoke tonight and give up again tomorow. These are all the voice of that little demon that sits on your shoulder and wispers in your old luggole:eek:

Stay focused on just getting through today:cool:
