Haven't been here in ages, but felt the urge to post. It's been over four months, well off the champix, now just trying to lose the bit of weight I managed to put on since the quit.
I was ill over the weekend, a coughy cold thing, and at some point it struck me how much better the cold is since I have quit smoking. At least I don't have to smoke while I already can't breathe!
I've been much more active, running, tennis, etc, and am really enjoying the active life. I do miss smoking though, and think I always will on some level. The benefits outweigh this though, so all in all I'm thrilled that I've quit.

Ajikan, 4 months is fantastic and you should be very chuffed with yourself. Don't worry about the occassional thoughts of smoking, they get less and less I promise you. I'm just ahead of you but I really don't ever want for a cigarette any more.
Hello AJ nice to see you back on to post a fantastic milestone of 4 months and to hear you sounding so up beat into the bargain, its true for maybe a while you will here the little demon on your shoulder say fancy a fag, but you know hes not strong enough now to tempt you so in you go to room four, and I would tell you what to say to him but would get banned well done you and stay positive.
