18 Months Done

Well that's a whole year and a half without smoking completed. The longest period of my life since I was 10, without a cigarette - and I'm no spring chicken!

Still get a few triggers from time to time but cravings or urges now consigned to ancient history.

Keep at it folks and all the best!

Congratulations - You are an inspiration. It's hard to believe that kid as young as ten used to smoke, but I remember getting a good hiding off my nan for pinching her fag out of the ashtray when I was about 5 :( We just copied I think) - Anyway, spring chickens are highly overrated ;)

I bet it is such a fantastic feeling knowing that you're now into territory you've not been in since you were ten years old coupled with knowing that you've got this cracked.

Congratulations and enjoy your second of many smoke free Christmas Days :D

Well done 18 months is awesome.

Even 5 and half years on I get the odd reminder that I once smoked I wouldn't call them triggers or cravings or even wants now, just memories.
