Please don't be down, you're doing really well.Still off the cigs has to be all to the good.EVERYONE on here knows how hard this is but if it helps you to post every day then post.Most of the folk here stick close to the site for a while anyway.When I'm down I try to think of all the things I have to be grateful for,not the material stuff but people and memories,it helps me.Hugs H x

Good for you! I belong to a weight-loss group, weighing in today, I gained the last couple of weeks.Since I'm on my 5th day, no cigarette, I'm not going to let it get to me.I'm just proud no smokes....I'll try to be better next week, thank goodness we can exercise now that summer's here.

You are doing great! I'm going to get on my bike :)

Good luck with the weigh in Terry.I've gained 19lbs in the 8 months since I quit the cigs,better to be off the cigs tho.Just take things one step at a time & if you gain a bit of weight then don't worry too much.

Hi Martin, love the pic by the way, thats just ace pal :)

I'm sorry your feeling down in the dumps, but I'm afraid quitting smoking does this to some of us, but it wont last long, once your body gets used to not having all those horrid chemicals and nicotine in it, you will soon be back to how you were :)

Hey, you stay strong now and please please try to keep focused on your quit eh, cos your body and mind will thank you for it, you just see :) :)

Martin, it helps me soooo much to come on here and to have a chat and to read the comments, so you post as many times as you want to pal. Good luck Martin, if you need help you flippin shout pal eh :)

I will see you later then, eh :) Pete :)

Thank you Kaprin :) x and I think I have learnt my lesson this time :o I will ask for help next time if I need it eh :) :) xx

You take care now gal and enjoyyyyyyyyyy being a none smoker :) :)

Keep posting Martin. We all like to read others thoughts and opinions and there is some comfort in knowing you are not the only one having difficulties with the quit. It's also nice to share little triumphs too. :)

Thanks for the beautiful image kronoskeylock.

Stay strong. Smoking doesn't help, or everyone who did it would be happy, and they're not

Bad things always happen to good people ! Jilly is a survivor tho but I'll say a special prayer for tonight to be on the safe side.

Stay positive my friend just look at how far we've come,who could've imagined we'd ever get this far.If Jilly' s heart attack has shown us all one thing it's the lottery we play with our health by ever smoking in the first place.

If Jilly' s heart attack has shown us all anything it's what idiots we were to ever start smoking in the first place
