Happy Funday Friday Everybody

Well another beautiful day and possibly even weekend on the horizon, how fantastic is that? :)

We';re getting towards spending lovely times outdoors with our friends which is always tricky for people who are stopping smoking. The only thing I can say is notice the number of people around you who don't smoke, because they aren't moping about the fact that they cannot have a cigarette, they are enjoying themselves and having a lovely time. So be positive and don't give any cravings or thoughts of cigarettes the time of day because you don't really want one, and it would really ruin a perfectly good afternoon/evening/weekend if you had one!

So be positive, have a wonderful weekend and always remember NOPE! Not one puff ever.

And enjoy the sunshine! :) :) :) xxx

Oooh Briar you have a fantastic time :) its a strange one not smoking on holiday, i felt like i was being duped as didnt bring any duty free home etc, and on an evening i had to keep telling myself that having a ciggie would not make the moment any better! But once you have your first hol as a non smoker out the way it does get easier :) x

Hi everyone, just back from hols myself. Enjoy your break Briar. Just be aware of the triggers and pre-empt them e.g. getting off the plane, last cig before going into the airport etc. well done on 8 weeks! :)

Wow that badge looks stunning on you Briarwood - MASSIVE CONGRATULATIONS to you - you have done so well and I'm so proud of you!

I'm so sorry I've missed you the last few days - I got completely hooked on Masterchef and I feel so bad about that now, but have a fabulous holiday and I'll be really happy to see you when you get back (no showing off the suntan though - it'll only depress me!)

Have lots of smokefree fun! xxx
