Looking back

[nsd_user663_18652]

Every one is doing so fantastic I am still in shock that I even made it past week 1 never mind into month 3.

When I look back now at my smoking habits that is exactly what it was a stupid habit. I was sure that I actually enjoyed a smoke but did I really??? Hmmm now Im not to sure that I did my head said I did but ..... na it was just something I did every hour of every day. Stuck a white stick in my mouth light it and if I thought I wasn't going to get to my next hour break I would smoke another on straight after so not to 'miss out' !!! Now how dumb was that!!

Well I am so happy to be free of that dumb habit and having extra money in my purse is having a great big pay rise

Well done timetostop!!

I used to do the same, sometimes i'd have 3 or even 4 in a row on my fag break at work, usually when there was someone to talk to and we'd get in to a deep and complicated conversation. I'd feel sick after 2 but would still light a third and then a fourth just to stay in the conversation!! WTF!!

The extra money is great, although i now own a LOT more shoes, oops!!

I rolled my own too Carol. And I also used to cram them in. I'd always move my car (to dodge the traffic wardens :mad at 11 when I'm working and I used to roll 3 fags before I went. One to smoke on way to car, one whist moving it, and one walking backto th office. Used to smoke all 3 even if it made me feel sick, so desperate was I to get the nicotine in. Must have been mad :eek:

It's crazy when you look back at it smober.

I was on the bus this morning and the guy next to me REEKED. I always thought rollies smelled nicer than normal fags so I wouldn't be so repellent (and actually they are marginally better, I still think) but still... this guy absolutely ponged of tobacco and it was horrible. Who was I kidding?

And having to huddle by the bins outside my office in the freezing cold and driving rain just to get my fix. Eurgh.
