Wanted to smoke today...

...but only so I could escape the office and work hassle. But I took some deep breaths and munched on some seeds and the urge passed. I have noticed an improvement in my sense of smell which is great when you can smell nice smells but not so good when you notice more unpleasant odours! :(

I went running in the rain tonight which is not something you would have caught me doing before. I have to run to counter the effects of the creme eggs I am eating!;)

Thanks

I am not really enjoying the seeds, to be honest. But I found some that are spicy and I much prefer them. But I need to cut down on the chocolate. I don't want have to buy a load of new clothes because of an expanding waistline.

Good to hear that you are noticing some of the many benefits of not been a smoker, improved sense of smell, better skin, better health etc etc.

Running, wow I just about manage to walk the dog, but you never know come the nicer weather I might just have to jog a bit :eek:

I am soo glad I don't have any creme eggs in the house because now you have mentioned one I could just kill for one, however dinner is almost cooked so roasted chicken will just have to do.

We all go throught it Ellie so when it happens just hang in there for a few minutes and it will go away. There will be times it lasts a bit longer but you just have to see it out, and you will because we all know you're determined.:)

Thanks

I will try that with the seeds, Chrissie.

Yes, I am determined, Jack. My biggest problem is not to give out to my husband. He is procrastinating about starting his quit. It is almost amusing to listen the his hollow excuses to delay his quit. I am holding my tongue because I don't want to be accused of stressing him. The boys have made a few comments like 'Why can't you stop, if Mum can?' So I am hoping his alpha male pride will kick in soon.
