Day 12

[nsd_user663_54696]

Sorry i said i was on day 12 yesterday but in fact its day 12 today,i got a little to excited but to be honest i feel like ive been a none smoker for years and it feels so so good....................people out there who are struggling, do not go back to it because this life is so much better, and trust me each day that goes bye it just gets easier and a whole lot better................In this life nothing is for free. YOU ONLY GET OUT OF IT WHAT YOU PUT IN

Just a little thing to you people who think that they cant have a beer or enjoy a beer without a ciggie, well too me thats rubbish, because i went out last night and my beer has never tasted so good i was amazed at how much tastier it was. And it was so nice not having to stand outside in the cold like a leper every 30 minutes :D:D:D:

GOOD LUCK MY FELLOW NONE SMOKERS keep up the good work the benefits are already happening

Hiya will,

Your up bright and early too I'm normally sleeping off a hangover just now LOL I'm struggling with the drinking a bit, I think I'm just scared because it where I've always failed in the past. A lot of what me and my friends do is sit round each others houses and have a chin wag over food, wine and cigs! I think maybe come feb ill feel a lot stronger, and ill face it. But for now ill live like a hermit

Good luck today. Your one day ahead of me. Think I will get through today ok. Just going to keep busy. I do have a mammoth task I can do if I get a bit tetchy. I really need to have a clothes clear out. My wardrobe and chest of drawers is bursting with clothes. I really need to sort it out! Just looking at it.....yes I reallllllly need to sort it out lol

Xxx

Today's mantras.

I am trying to focus on two things today (day12):

1. How unacceptable smoking in the workplace is, one can see the gradual shift in behaviours over time, smokers now ' hide' their shame up lanes , round the back, and I always felt kind of inferior to my colleagues when doing so due to my addiction.

2. I think I am mourning the loss of something that was once dear to me, and as we all know time erodes the intensity of these feelings.

Well, I have an appointment with the pub at 6 pm: i am going to stare the devil in the face- but only for an hour in case i get scared! ( but i have to go out sometime) Thank goodness for multipacks of wrigleys in pound shops! Tally ho!
