Smoke free... Quit cold turkey and I feel amazing 95% of the time. I still have a little anxiety in my chest some times, but I think it will pass too in the next coming weeks. I love that I don't smell, I don't have to be ashamed!! I was a closet smoker. I would literally put a hoodie on driving to work so I wouldn't stink when I showed up at the office... Always equipt with spray and gum. I finally feel free! So glad I didn't use a NRT this time. You're just still an addict! Allen Carr all the way. ✌️

Well done Lena 😀

Agree with you about Allen Carr 👍👍👍

I hated the fact I smoked and I never seen it as a social thing either, I hated the smell as well and probably spent as much on perfume as I did cigarettes. So I'm saving double 😆😆

You're doing great with your positive attitude keep it up

It does get easier

We are doing well, havent had a frost here yet. Winter for us are 1st June through to 31 august and all and all the weather has been rather nice. Maybe we will get a mild winter :) :) most of days are up around the 17 -18 :) :)

i would hold off cos ya dont want the frost getting em before they have a chance to grow strong :) :)

I plant a whole pile of winter vegies recently.. Hubby split a couple of big plastic drums for me and have turned them into vegie gardens. I can move them around for either sun or shade :) :) loving it
