well here we go,

stopped the dreaded ciggies at the start of march,

can honestly say have not had one since,not easy,one

of the hardest things ever,but the BEST EVER

since I stopped I have had some awfull health problems,but am now starting to see some real benefits of quitting,not just health wise but in lots of different ways

walking,breathing tasting and smelling all good

my house,clothes mouth and everything just smells better,

it just gets better and better,

as for the fags doesnt even bother me now

so heres to the next six months if a uneducated peasant like me can do it

then there is hope for everyone to stop

just stay positive and focused,

ITS NOT EASY ITS HARD

BUT JEEEZZZZZ AFTER 6 MONTHS ITS ALL GOOD

AND GETS BETTER

cheers

stef

sorry if I went on a bit

Great post Stef,

I'm almost at 6 months..and from what I can gather it seems to start getting a bit easier. Don't get me wrong, I've been reasonably ok most of the time...just get some odd cravings now and again....like tonight!!

I agree too that it is the hardest thing to do, and unless you are a smoker trying to stop then you can't understand how hard it is.

Anyway, keep strong with your quit hun,

Nicki

Well done mate

Stef, be proud of yourself in reaching the half a year mark it should be plain sailing to the Penthouse now. I will reach the Penthouse a little before you on 18th December and I will keep you a seat at the bar, next to the pole dancing area, just past the barbi,but really well done Stef, and keep posting and never let your gard down from the nicodemon.

Well done. 6 months is brilliant. That was a major turning point for me and everything clicked into place and made sense and it was fantastic.

I agree - it was THE hardest thing I have ever done. But now, at 1 year, it is also the best.

Oh and never apologise for "going on a bit" - you should see half of my windbaggy ranting posts!

Keep it strong!
