Never thought I would

[mickyt]

Packed up on 24th Feb, after being diagnosed with COPD, I had been smoking since the age of 14, I am 69 now, didn't think I would ever be able to do it, I do hope I never touch one again, feel much better, and have a bit more money

[Betts]

Nice one! That's brilliant Mickyt! You have done it, are doing it, and are an inspiration!

Good going Micky. I'm sure it gets even harder as you get older. Shame about the COPD but you have made the best decision. It will get easier as time goes on.

I am so pleased you are feeling so much better for it as well - that has GOT to be motivation to stay of those cigarettes forever! So stay strong and enjoy the improvement in your health and your finances!!!!

A true winner

[mickyt 7 MONTH WINNER]

Thank you Emjay, haven't bought anything yet, but it's mounting up...

[EmJay Partner]

Well you just make sure you do, and in the meantime, just enjoy watching it mount up

[mickyt 7 MONTH WINNER]

Well done my friend!

My Dad has COPD, it's very difficult.

One of the reasons I'm now on Ecigs... with a view to NO cigs.

You've done it with nothing, which I know is SO hard. I quit for three years. .. still can't figure why I started again with such a vengeance. From one, to a 10 pack to 20 a day again within 3 days.... I think you're always a smoker, just one that's not smoking right now!

Just like I don't have that first drink now!

Stay strong and if a craving strikes get on here pronto. ALWAYS a friendly voice out there to talk you into remaining smoke free.
