day 1? I ACTUALLY DID IT! DAY 1 OVER!

[AshSmash]

I went for a run last night, as a smoker. Smoked all day before and afterwards and my god, was it awful! My chest was tight, painful and I was gasping. I'm not in any denial, I'm definitely not in the shape I was! But those fags have definitely done something to my insides and I couldn't get that thought out of my head. So I had a bit of a Sherman Klump (Nutty Professor - 'YES. I. CAN!') moment, stubbed out my last cig at 10:20pm last night and have had my peachy flavoured ecig instead... Although I have suffered with two half charged batteries and a dog hair in my e-juice cartridge. The only way is up though! Surely!

Brilliant -well done and keep going.  Love the part about the dog hair,  made me laugh.   I can relate but with car hair!

Thank you everyone! So happy to finally have a smooth start, although I might be cheating/ helping myself along with the ecig! Hoping to keep it handy for a while, eventually hit zero nicotine and get rid of it (only on 6mg at the mo). No dog hair today, so already having a good day 2! Will keep you posted, hope you're all going strong! X
