...and they really do seem to be rolling by one after the other now. I kinda feel bad that I don't come say hi as often as I should, or offer as much support to others as I maybe should but I think not being on here daily is helping. To me the success of quitting is almost forgetting that I was a smoker; heading on here doesn't support that approach.

Any who, generally things are going well. I've not had a significant craving for as long as I can remember. I am still having issues with my throat which is now becoming more and more of a concern. My Dr thinks it's nothing but after ... well 50 ish days (it started around the time I quit) you can't really help but worry. I'll probably head back this week or next to see what he says....I can't help but always think the worst.

On the more positive side I'm enjoying exercising more and my weight is now a little more controlled. I've not really got in to the gym but am enjoying swimming as many days a week as possible. Not been for a few days due to another 'chill'.

Generally all good though and most importantly still enjoying the experience. I can't say there are many things in life that I've set my mind to and managed to complete; that makes this all the more enjoyable. :D

Not a worry, Mart :) It's your quit and whatever works for you, works.

Tis good though to hear from you and know all is well in Stavs World :)

Hope that annoying sore throat is no more than just a lingering annoyance and clears up, soon.

Keep on with that good solid quit of yours.

Till next time :)
