On Day 22, and it's had its ups and downs. The downs annoy me - tiredness, hunger, impatience, vivid dreams, longing for a fag at times
Of course there is THE UP of not smoking, which outweighs everything else and makes getting through the downs an achievement I didn't dream I could do.
Early days I suppose, but I'm a non-smoker now. Suddenly think about smoking in the evenings (most evenings if I'm honest!) but the thought passes, it doesn't grab me and hold me now.
Having a great meal in a pub then a walk on the beach after and not even thinking about a cigarette is wonderful to me
I hope you are all doing well and managing the difficult bits OK. This place has made a difference to me, and it will to you too. xxx

Well done! And I wholeheartedly agree about the post meal thing. I now have a delicious lingering taste of yummy food in my mouth after we go out for a meal, instead of the taste of cigarettes. Much nicer isn't it
Fantastic Bluebell- it's wonderful to move to a new room isn't it?
It's true that the cravings diminish as time passes. I rarely get a proper craving now (last one was 4 days ago and only lasted a few minutes). As you say, the benefits so outweigh any of the pain we went through.
Go you xxx You are doing fantastic, I struggled on my 3rd week, my 4th week seems to be going so much better xxx Roll on the day we never crave again xxx
