Get me!

Hiya,

Day 5 for me & just come back from smoking cessation at the chemist. My CO2 has gone down from 12 last week to ZERO. Get me!!!!!

Have not been too bad this week but have felt a bit out of it the last couple of days. Unusual as I am using patches. Maybe it's the weather or something!

Had 2 glasses of wine last night & did have a fleeting thought that a ciggie would be nice but soon squashed that idea. Got through work & didn't bend when my boss through a hissy fit at me for no reason (again) which has sent me off to scrounge a fag & lose a quit twice now.

All in all, a positive start & proved I can get through 2 big triggers without giving in. Long may it continue

Hope everyone is feeling good in their quits today.

Hi Gaynor

Well done hun 5 days smoke free that's great and that CO reading is fantastic

Feeling a bit out of it is normal at this stage but you still got through those 2 triggers

Love and a Hug

Well done Gaynor, your quit is worth so much more than the person who was winding you up. keep going, one day at a time and you are definitely going to get there.

Never mind tomorrow morning you are going to go into work with a big smile on your face and let her see she cannot get to you, OK. Have a good day.

Thanks again Jackie & Chrissie.

Don't get me wrong, not down because of my quit at all.

I still feel positive & don't even think about them (well occassionally!). I don't need to. They are not part of my life anymore & deserve no head space

Positive things of note :

I hardly cough now which considering how VERY bad my cough was is SUCH a good sign. My chest does not wheeze. I can beathe in & out deeply with out spluttering all over the place. My energy level is increasing. My circulation is better & I swear when I look in the mirror my face is a different colour!! Whiter & kinda glowy Obviously also quids in to boot which can't be bad.

To all newbies or those thinking of quitting all these things I have noticed in just 7 days. Hope that is of some encouragement to you
