Hello Fleetwood,

Glad you are still here! Easy time of it? Hard time of it?

Well done Fleetwood!!!

10 weeks for me so nearly catching you up!!

Can't say it's been easy but can't say it's been too bad either! Still would love a fag tho', but that craving passes in minutes if you can ride it out.

That 'feeling' of wanting to smoke is what I want rid of. I know people way down the line that say that feeling of wanting to smoke has never left them - that scares me. But I suppose in the grand scheme of things it's still early days so we're doing well - REALLY WELL !!!! :D

hard times and bad times

Hi Jen and Juliee, yes Jen it has been difficult at moments but i have managed to get past them and i am pleased about that. I also came very close to having a fag one of the days i had rolled it but i never smoked it. Infact its still in my dressing gown pocket but i dont want it. And to juliee i agree the thought scares me as well that people i know who have quit 3years and 6years down the line still think about the fag. But then a couple of my other friends say they don't get thoughts about a fag. So it just effects us all differently i suppose. But its still scary. Well done to both of you.

Fleetwood,

To this day, if I found a ciggy I would smoke it; would like to say I wouldn't but know I would. My rules are will not buy them and will not bum them. Thank God it has worked so far. I have the willpower of a slug. I truly admire your willpower.

Congratulations Fleetwood and I toast your continued success!

Jen

11 weeks is a great quit and just one more week and you will be at the quarter of a year, I always liked the sound of that better than 3 months, onwards and upwards is the only way to go and I know that sometimes the stairs can seem a little daunting but it does get easier the further up you go, reaching the Penthouse has got to give you a great big buzz so just keep focussed on that fantastic view when you get there, and of course the free drinks :D

Not what you're looking for?
