Here I was, thinking "oh, I haven't posted any nasty words to the little demon for a while. now is a great time". I ran along to the forum and FORGOT WHAT DAY I AM ON! Ha! That bloody constant nagging each day has become so small that I'm forgetting it's even there!
This is my favourite achievement by far up to now!!
Anyway, back to my post:
Dear Nico-Demon,
You were my friend, my go to guy, the thing that made me feel "relieved", "calmer", and "satisfied". You were, at times, top of the list when it came to importance.
Beating you is fast becoming one of the best things I have done so far, in my twenty four years of life. It is slowly restoring my courage, my faith in myself and has given me great pride.
It is true that, over the last few weeks, you have made me doubt myself on many occasions. You have told me that "just one won't hurt" and have caused me to almost fail in my mission to be rid of you. But you forget that I won't ever stop and I won't ever give up trying. AND NOW I'VE MADE IT TO DAY 37!!
So just beware and know that I am still watching and waiting, with my frying pan and musketeers, to bash you around the head as many times as it takes until you do one for good! :rolleyes:
Oh and, in case you were wondering, we are officially over!
Yours,
Sarah Lou (non-smoker)

YAY :cool:
Well done Sarah Lou, you're doing brilliantly and it's so good to see you getting more and more confident!!
I love your letter to the Nicotine Monster - he's got no chance now!! xx
Changing the subject rather, please can someone tell me when lung capacity should improve? I suppose it's not going to be a quick fix, but the stats on my app show no change at the moment.

Somewhere less than 16 weeks 1 hour if that helps?
Mine is showing as "physical condition improved" and "standardisation of respiratory function" both reached on QuitNow.
Tbh, my lung capacity improved drastically within a couple of weeks, and I smoked around double what you did. We're young and the body is pretty tough
Don't know if I'm as good as if I'd never smoked, but I can powerwalk up hills easily that would have left me panting for breath when I was a smoker.
