Good luck Mrswills, you are on your way What helped me the most at first was deciding to stop for 72 hours to see how I would feel when the nicotine had left my body, and then I just kept going and I am now in Day 15 which I didn't think was possible for me!!

And you never know, when your step mum sees you not smoking she might start thinking about stopping too I am sure not smoking is contagious, it is the example of people on this forum that has kept me going.

Good luck and stay strong,

Zoe

day 2 my story

Thanks zoe

Well i survived it,wasnt quite as bad as i thought and zoe is right smoking isnt contagious lol i love that .

Im feeling quite proud of myself,warning bells are starting to sound,am i in for a big fall? well i will have to deal with that when i come to it i guess.

I have a bit of a couch coming on ,headache and dizziness,apparently im in withdrawal and i couldnt be happier ,i just keep thinking of all the bad stuff thats gonna leave my body.

I know im only half way through day 2 but im starting to feel like a non smoker,thats what i have to keep telling myself,only thing is ive been eating a little more,but as i see it when i get my fitness back ill start jogging and then deal with that, 1 day at a time!

Well done Mrswills, you are going so fab it is so great to hear!! And don't worry about the dizzyness - it is normal and will start to clear up for you soon now - between today and tomorrow. I am ashamed to say that that feeling put me off from quitting for another 11 years wasn't I a fool!!

Im feeling quite proud of myself,warning bells are starting to sound,am i in for a big fall?

Noooo, enjoy feeling proud of yourself, you deserve it, especially in the first 3 days which are the hardest. So enjoy that feeling of pride. And don't ****yze too much, you are doing so great. And it will get even better, promise.

So stay strong and enjoy your quit - I know you can do it. If I can get this far anyone can believe me. And you doing great.

Well done Mrs

Every time you face a particular threat and overcome it, you will be stronger for the next time. Being exposed to other smokers is always going to be a challenge in the early days, but you have got that under your belt now. Keep it up!
