....OMG Im still a bit in shock that I have managed to get this far.

First time at trying to stop after smoking for over 25 years.

I didn't even plan to stop it just happened when I got ill and had not smoked for a couple of days I thought I would try to see how long I could go without smoking in the hope I could pack in and here I am £300 better off and feeling fantastic to be smoke free. Yes I have added a few inches to my waistline but thats going to be my next aim starting in the new year.

Well done everyone who has got this far :D

Well done to you, too! 52 days is great! The extra inches to the waistline are highly annoying but in time they melt away with just a bit of effort! I had to stop the red wine and gummy bears at night to get rid of the extra pounds.... was a tough sacrifice to make but hey, the jeans fit again ;) Good luck to you!

Hi timetostop

Thats BRILLIANT!!! WELL DONE :D

I know how you feel with added inches... i am down to one pair of jeans and am having to wash, dry and iron them of an evening... did get two pairs for Xmas, but alas too small :eek:

one step at a time though, get the quit totally under control... then do something about the weight.....thats my plan :)

HAPPY NEW YEAR

I think there's a good few of us looking to tackle to big-D this month, myself included. Will be 8 weeks this coming Friday and, even though i haven't weighed myself for a while, my jeans are rather tighter than they were in Nov 2010!!! Oops!!

Raising my last wine for a while to you and a smoke-free and slim 2011 :cool:
