Oh Shelly - I am right there with you. I am on day 27 and I have eaten so much that being hungry is a distant memory as I eat before I'm hungry, well pretty much all the time I'm wondering what to eat next. Ho hum.

However, I am so proud of how well you have done - from those first few desperate posts to this person who says 'the cravings are not too bad'! Can you have imagined yourself saying that a few days ago? Hats off to you, you brilliant person you! 😁

Well I suppose it would depend what you keep on picking on!

I know I would never have dreamed I could get this far , I hoped and prayed but must admit wasn't sure....but I have and im feeling so much more positive because of it and the support.

I've also came off my medication the same time and I think that was actually making me worse I think they prescribe too quickly I went for support as I was petrified after my colop and they gave drugs to calm me down mmm, oh well anyhow the last 3/4 weeks have been pure hell for one reason and another and now I feel human and good for the first time, in weeks im still scared I admit and hate the telephone calling or postman coming but im also happy to have finally made this jump and free myself from the everyday addiction that held me prisoner.

Today has actually been the one day I've missed smoking in a way, as in romanticise the cigarette and fancy one but I know its a huge N.O.P.E and I will conquer and go buy lots of fruit quickly, and mints

Oh yes, you can seriously eat, eat and more eat, it's a common factor, so inevitable that maybe be you will put a pound or 12 on, but you can diet later if the need arises. I put on 3/4 of a stone, but realy was not bothered until I was comfy in my quit.

WOW. How far you have come, doing so very well indeed my lovely.

May I say Shelly, that for me you seem to have turned a little corner, and are now starting to believe you have quit.

Keep posting.

AMAZING

Ah, the quitter's munchies...still got mine! Overweight, meh, we can deal with that later. Once we've beaten nicotine. Let's face it, losing the extra pounds should be a walk in the park compared to beating a proper addiction. Be strong Shelly!

Morning Shelly, I so hope today, is a good one for you.

So close to the first week, rooting for you
