Hi Ed and Jo

If this helps you both than I'm happy I still come here from time to time not everyday as I used to do

My life now is so much better than it ever was, I'm healthier and happier than I knew I could be

So yes it's hard at times but so worth the discomfort and pain we sometimes have to put up with

Hang on tight you can do it I promise

Love

Marg xx

Well done Marge, ain't it grand to be free of the dreaded weed!

[nsd_user663_7469]

Gold Plated Marg

Well done you and what a stunning quit you have, I bet 2 years ago you didnt think you would get this far did you.

All the bad things are behind you now I hope and even the health issues that I know are causing you a few problems at the moment will be under control soon and leave you feeling even more fantastic.

I thank you as well as I am one of the quitters who has felt the benefit of your support on this forum right from the start of my quit up untill this present day, keep up the good work we all appreciate it.

Hi Nic

Yes it;s great hun all behind us now and as you say life is Grand and it's so good to be free of the dreaded weed

I'm still following faithfully in yours and Stuarts footsteps though

Hi Jamangie

You're right hun I didn't dare dream of this day way back then I was so used to doing just a couple of days others times I tried that I determined if I didn't make it this time I wasn't going to try anymore

Teas all the bad things are behind me the bug has gone I no longer feel deathly tired and my BP is back under control so all is right in my world

Well done Marg.....keep soldiering onwards and upwards

Thanks for the mention,

[nsd_user663_5972]

Marg - well done on your 2 years quit - what a great achievement.

I knew you would do it, you always seemed so determined and positive.

[austinlegro 11 Years Smoke Free]

I guess this is the only section where we're really allowed to be smug and boy do I feel smug...

Excellent news Marg, I didn't realise you were almost exactly a year behind me and young Tomatpots a mere day or two apart.

The difference between 2 years and 3 years? Nowt if you ask me.

I come here less, I still sent parcel-bombs to Glaxosmithkliene and I still dream of a day when someone in authority will actually help smokers rather than confuse them.

Fragrant, fitter and feelin' good.

Really happy for you. x.

[nsd_user663_3554]

Congrats on your 2 years + Quit

[nsd_user663_3728]

Hi Dee

Thanks for the message hun It's good to see you here hun and smoke free ain't life grand

Hi Jackie

Thanks hun for the message and the PM lol

Hi Cav

Thanks hun noce to hear from you and my thanks for all the hel and support in the early days and the freindship later

Hi Tinkerbelle

Thank you I was always determined hun but like most of us I had me bad days along with the good

Hi Austin

Lovely to hear from you and yep you and Tom are a year ahead of me and when I started my quit it seemed an almost impossible goal to reach that 1 year thanks for all the help and encouragement you gave me

I'm also much fitter hun and yes we're allowed to be smug and as you say now the difference between 2 years a 3 is nothing but when I started it was an awful lot I also come here a lot less now hun

Hi Dubbs

Thanks also for the message and the help in the early days hun

My apologies to you all for the late acknowledgement of your messages I haven't been here lately as life has been a little manic lately and please shre the :D:D:D as we're only allowed four here you couldn't have one each lol

Love to you All

Marg xxxxx

[nsd_user663_3633]

Well done, Mum

Good innit?

[nsd_user663_4990]

2 years puts you in a place on your quit that even the folk reaching 1 year right now will aspire too.. and i'm sure you have folk ahead of you too that make you think.. 'WOW!'..

but it is a wonderful time for you and many of us who've stuck it out through it all, the benefits by far outweigh the effort

Well done Marg, i've posted for you elsewhere, but as i was passing here today wanted to say congrats

I'm still going myself as you know, nearly 17 months (on the 11th), and well, is it ok to say you feel like a fake when you are no longer feeling any real cravings, and just feelin normal? its been a long time since i've needed any positive support, which is why i've spent much of my time on the forums giving my time back to helping those still struggling.

just as you have. Keep this going marg, you help so many folk out, and even those who perhaps haven't created accounts yet.

[nsd_user663_3617]
