Hey guys,

Just checking in. How is everyone?

I'm loving being a non-smoker (even when the sun is shining and I'm sat in a beer garden ;)) and hope you all are too! Only four and a half months on I can no longer relate in the same way to that person who worried so much about stopping. I convinced myself so many times that I wouldn't be able to last a week without a cigarette and here I am! :rolleyes::D

I hope you guys are all as proud of yourselves as I am of me and, for any newbies or smokers who are scared of stopping for good, it gets a whole lot easier very quickly. It is so worth any pain and suffering (which you may not even experience) in those first few weeks. Stay positive and remember that your body will be thanking you every single day that you stay smoke free!! :)

Hope you all have a great weekend (can't wait to get my sun lounger out in the garden!) and I'll speak to you soon xxx

It's a great feeling. I love that my clothes no longer smell. Totally well worth the pain of those early weeks to get where we are now, happy none smokers :):):)

OMG Max, I have been eating two a day of these since I quit smoking, I never liked the taste when I was smoking, but I love them now.:D

We'll all probably have those moments hun, but they must get less the longer we go :)

We've had such lousy weather, it's still new not to have a fag in the sunshine!!

Had a bit of a wobble this afternoon 'cos one of my friends was smoking and she looked like she was loving it. I *really* wanted one then :/

*But* we know it's an illusion :)

Hopefully soon, Nic will bugger off and leave us alone!!

Can't say the same - have got dangerously close to caving several times in the last month but isn't it annoying that Nic won't sling his hook?

But heck, we both beat it and that's fab!!
