Going nuts but in fabulous shoes ........

Arghhhhhh really struggling today, didn't think it would be this bad as not going cold turkey!

Only saving grace is the weather is terrible and I am too lazy to walk to the shop :)

Also just done my hair which is naturally very curly ( Shirley temple styleeee) and no way I am straightening my mop again.

Had a snooze which took my mind off the desire to demolish a pack of fags but even with puffing on my ecig it does not feel enough today :(

Maybe another snooze is in order lol.

Hope everyone else is having an easier day today.

Love the shoes Al, think this weather makes you feel trapped inside and your brain wants something different to do eg. light up.. Trick is distaction, naps ,tv. choccy, glass of wine You can do it . :)

Aup Al, I'm sorry your having a bad day of it gal, but it does seem to be like that :o

You seem to have a few easy days, then BAM ! mr nic flippin strikes, he comes from nowhere and gets everywhere eh !!

These are the days you have to be really careful of ! cos you can soon be back to square 1 again :o

Get on the int and go surfing for some hols and take your mind off you know what eh :) Put your new sparkly dancing shoes on and give em hell :o strut your stuff gal :) and, hey !! maybe practice falling over gracefully eh, instead of just flopping down in a heap impersonating a dying fly :D :D :D

Ermmmm, think I'd best scarper while I can still breath eh ;) where's that flippin taxi when you want it :o :|

Shoes are great btw. I agree about the weather. It gets to you and you think hmmm now what could distract me? Once that would have been smokes but not now. Shoes, bags, chocolates and sleep.... And helping others. Like you an others did for me the other day :) 5 Days for me now... As a direct result of you and others on here. So don't give in or up. X

Hey Monky. Thanks for the message. Yeah I'm feeling a bit more confident. I'm donating 90 days worth of fag money to charity and people have sponsored me as well, so don't wanna let them down :S just using lozenges every now and again, have to admit that the heating got to me and I had a drag on my mates vapourizer ;) just feel a little flat. Took up so much of me time smoking. Feeling a little down but just putting it down to the nicotine lol :)

monkyAdministratorCake sniffer outer in reply toChrissy_Fur

Chrissy, I dont know how many you smoked a day, but if you smoked 20 a day say, at £7.00 a pack, for 90 days, that would be, ermmm, ermmmm, a lot of money for your charity eh :) :)

£630.00 plus the people that have sponsored you :) :) That is just fantastic pal :)

Rite, you feel flat ! soooooo, go pump yourself up eh !! find a hobby, go for a brisk walk, it dosnt have to be a long walk, just try to do something different :) If your not in to going out :o :o does that sound rite ?

Anyway, try some exercises :) press-ups, sit-ups etc, when you get that urge to smoke, just dive on the floor and give it 20 press-ups, that urge will be gone then :)

What about drinking water !! I have noticed myself, cos I drink more water now, that I feel more energetic, enthusiastic, happier, but I've still only got 1 brain cell though :( but we cant win em all eh :D :D

Your doing so so well Chrissy, you stick with it now, am with you a 1000% pal :)

Pete :)

Hey Monky

Yeah was 20 a day Lambert and Butler which is £7.70 at the moment. With what I'll save and the money sponsored so far is already over £1000 :)

I have a dog so she's a good excuse to go for a brisk walk :) although not so sure about the sit ups lol... Yet anyway. Did get my bike fixed after being in the garage for 5 years lol

I try and drink more water, funny while I'm at work I drink loads, but tend not to at home. I'm just riding the wave at the moment cos I know that my body has been hammered with smoking for the last 22 years!!

Glad I found this site though.

Thanks for the Tips and support mate

Chris

Lovin' those shoes Al flower.Sorry to hear that today Isn't one of the better ones.The double Decker sounds fairly yummy but have to say Haribo' s and liquorice are more up my street.O.K. then, so look at those fab shoes,take a good deep breath & remind yourself how you bought them (& remember you still have cash left) So,is it worth £7 odd up in smoke & feeling guilty afterwards or that smug feeling you get when you just know that it's been bl***y hard but yet again you triumphed.You CAN do this and you know you can,tomorrow is a fresh new day & it absolutely WILL be easier.Hugs always H

hi pinki i have had this in the early days check your ecig coil, change it for a new one, with me it was done for and needed a new one, went back to normal (not nuts) as soon as i had. i now change them every 4/5/6 days, plus sometimes even the new one is rubbish and not working. i bought a batch from ebay cheep (know why) they were reaaly crap.went on line to vape escape theres are good made by kanger. just a thought this may help. xx
