I made it to two weeks! I believe this means that I'm 50% more likely to quit but I'm definitely 100% going to. My partner has too, I'm so proud of him.
I'm really smug because I felt like I've proven to all the people that doubted me that I can do it, lots of people said I'd crack way before today.
Treated myself to a smart pair of new running shoes, now I can breathe better I'm going to do that 10k next.
I'm feeling amazing this morning! I hope everyone's quit is going well, I owe my success in some part to this forum for sure.

I don't want to sound like the voice of doom but have you given thought to how you will press on if your partner did cave.
Good luck on the running front
I'd be very disappointed if he did cave, and it would affect the likelihood of me quitting, however, I'd like to think that I could carry on. He would never smoke in front of me or anything but it would be demoralising.
On the other hand I think he's 10x more determined than I, plus he only has a year of smoking habit to beat whereas I've had 7.
Hopefully it won't come to that though!
And thanks everyone else your encouragement means so much!
Don't worry karri I don't think anything could today. Plus you've strengthened our resolve because if one of us smokes we're probably going to ruin the other's quit and we'd feel twice as guilty
