Allen Carr

Almost finished the Allen Carr book after only getting it 4 days ago. Left it this long to read as I thought it would be a good boost at this stage. It does make a lot of sense especially the fact that we are giving up NOTHING but gaining so much! I did used to moan a lot how much I was wanting them and still felt I was missing out. This is starting to change. I was behind a lady buying a pack of 20 yesterday and instead of envy I felt so much pity instead. I know I have a long way to go still but there's definetely a small change happening in the mindset. I'm going to keep reading that book over and over until it's embedded in my brain. I would HATE to be smoking again and I can say that hand on heart. Let's hope this is the stage I have rounded a corner. In a strange way I'll feel even better on the 1st January as I can say I quit LAST year! Hope everyone has a fab new year and most importantly smoke free xxx

You're doing great Dolores.

I've not read the Allen Carr book but as it comes so highly recommended by so many here I am going to order a copy.

Happy New Year to you.
