Chuffed

Well one of my fears was put to bed last night.

I've been avoiding going to the pub like the plague... Just in case! But last night I joined 2 friends, one of whom smokes, for a few drinks.

No problem didn't think about it, sailed through and didn't even need a gum when I left!

Pathetically pleased!

Fantastic!

I find that with most things after quitting (like quitting itself) it's more of a case of the 'fear of the unknown' that holds us back... once it's done we realise it's not so bad really :)

Well done, thats excellent! To lots that is the worst time. From now on when you get a wee craving just say to yourself "I got through being at the pub, I will get through any craving"

Congrats again!!

Hi Dale,

Pathetically pleased!

So you jolly well should be :D That's a milestone by anyones reckoning :cool: I can remember my first time of going out socially, and l was dreading it as well. I still remember the feeling of satisfaction and slight smugness l felt when l didn't have to go outside to join the others in a cigarette. So there you go - you have every right to feel chuffed with yourself. :D:D

You have every reason to be chuffed. I shows that your quit is getting stronger. I'm very happy for you.

A little bit chuffed with myself right now :)

.. Was here last year and one fag turned into 10 months of smoking before I plucked up the courage...

Day 4 and quietly chuffed

that one is best left until later, for me at least. This time feels different to the last few quit...

A whole week without tobacco.feel chuffed.

A full week without smoking feels like i've escaped from the prison at last. Confident that I can do

Day 5 and not so good

benefits from not smoking for the last four days, last night I was trying to justify why one...

The end of \"sigh\" another day one.

about my slip last night and went straight to bed. I woke up feeling gross and didn't do much all...
