The worst ex smoker in the world has somehow made it to 6 months

nsd_user663_63114 profile image

Really find it hard to believe I ever smoked. Just a bit bonkers and mind blowing that I puffed away for 30 years. How many handbags and shoes could I have enjoyed?

I've got rid of cigarettes, a horrible stressy job, and a few friends that weren't friends. I now have a lovely job, work less hours, and am smoke free. Giving up smoking has given me the motivation to change stuff I didn't like in my life, it was as if being a smoker de-valued my self worth. Now I know I am fabulous!

Amazing Caroline. You are such a support to us all on here x it's really important the point about self worth, it's one of the best bits about quitting. I agree it makes you feel like there's no reason not to tackle other things you want to change. Really really pleased for you 🎈🎉😀
