Good morning everyone, 1085 yes thats how many members we have on quit support. What a lovely thing to think that we all help and support each other with guidance of Emjay. This community is growing pretty fast. Which means more non-smokers. I hope you are all fine and not struggling too much. Any problems just go ahead and shout.

Meanwhile enjoy your NOPE (not one puff ever) day.

Morning Jilly,

All good in my camp this morning, although woke up thinking I could do with a smoke, but had my shower and it passed

Annoying as when it didnt matter if I had one or not, it never bothered me!! Sneaky mind tricks lol x

Amazing what tricks your mind does isnt it. You certainly doing well. When is your birthday? and are you up in Cumbria this weekend. bet you cant wait.

hi Jilly

My birthday is tomorrow, so last day of work for me today until next tuesday woooohoooo <throws filing in the air and does the conga...hmmm not the same on my own lol >. I am traveling up home early thursday morning and not coming back down until monday

My mind is sure testing me today for some reason......stupid brain ... doesnt help that work is quiet, I just keep checking on here, to see if there are some posts to keep me occupied lol!. But really feeling the cravings today, but i know its ridiculous, because all last week when i could have picked up a smoke it didnt bother me at all, well apart from the one after the evening meal...which is still there for me, but I have changed my routine. Just washing my hands and having a drink of water every time my mind is trying to trick me :). Or just staring out my office window, I am opposite the soldiers barracks so i get to look at half naked men all day....and get paid for it lol!!! Not all bad huh x

Good Morning Everyone,

JillyGirl, I can't believe that we have so many members already, wowser

Thank you to you all for supporting me with the running of it and looking after each-other

You are all fabtastic

I'm away out this afternoon and so won't be on here until later this evening - I'm delivering a workshop in Preston and it doesn't start until 5, so - I hope you all have a stress free and smokefree afternoon

Al, you did the right thing - by letting the moment pass.. It will get easier

Hey guys.

This week is a strange one so far. I spent Sunday thinking it was Monday, Monday thinking it was Tuesday, and so far I keep thinking today is Monday.

I've just been to a hospital appointment and got to feel smug. My NHS trust is no smoking on any of their grounds. It means that I passed a group of people hiding in bushes having a sneaky fag. That used to be me. Not anymore

[jillygirl Administrator Queen Bee in reply to Rainbowlilybet]

Hi Ellie , I know what you mean about getting days mixed up. (think its a senior thing )

I know what you mean about not worrying about smoking in hospital grounds. So you should feel smug.

I wish we had leaflets to hand out telling them about quit support. Have a good day (whatever day it is )

[Rainbowlilybet 9 MONTH WINNER in reply to jillygirl]

Yes today will be a nice Thursday for us all xx

[Pinkiezoom 26 Months Winner in reply to Rainbowlilybet]

LOL its a nice short week for me whatever day it is. I will feel smug when i get off the train on Thursday and dont have to dash outside to light up, but might feel a bit weird too, as that is what i always did after any journey. x

[Rainbowlilybet 9 MONTH WINNER in reply to Pinkiezoom]

I imagine that'll be the strangest feeling. Maybe towards the end of the train journey you keep reminding yourself that you are a non smoker. And have your ecig at the ready.

[Pinkiezoom 26 Months Winner in reply to Rainbowlilybet]

Thats a good plan, i will do that x

Hey Jillygirl,

1085... whoop whoop. That's awesome. I have to ask, but where do u find tgese images?

[jillygirl Administrator Queen Bee in reply to MMoo]

I just go into images on google then right click and either save image or copy image url. if you get really stuck ask Pete he`s the expert on pcs.

[yellowsnowdrop]

Hi there all,Al,safe trip home,Ellie,well done on not being one of the ones hiding in the bushes,yep it used to be me too!! Jilly &EmJay,it's you that keep us going so flowers and hugs to you both,I absolutely KNOW that my quit would've been 100 times harder had I not stumbled across the website when I did.A minor non smoking victory for me today in that I managed to walk 3.75 miles (according to my trusty FitBit) the furthest I've managed since my Op 3weeks ago.Must admit I never thought that walking just 3 & a bit miles would feel so good,painful,but bloomin brilliant really.Doing a real happy dance here,Woop Woop !!!

[Pinkiezoom 26 Months Winner]

We'll done hel, that is quite a distance so soon after your op x
