JUST ONE DRINK

[J160]

hi everyone lovely evening  here in BOURNEMOUTH. Still off the cigs i'm pleased to say .Had a strange week nose bleeds, sores and my husband would say the worst part would be the wind lol. Anyway everything is going well and i have the faith that i am not going to go back to smoking, the only thing that would tempt me again would be alcohol its very tempting to go to the pub and sit outside on a nice night like this. NO im not strong enough for that yet ha ha

Hi J, glad you're enjoying the fine weather and Bournemouth is a beautiful part of the country👍🏼

Yep, keep the faith coz you're not going through the last 4 weeks again and poor hubby💨💨😂

You've got a terrific quit going there and I agree, it's just too soon to introduce the alcohol yet😟

Stay strong coz you're doing great, well done to you🚭😊

Aup J its lovely to hear from you it really is, cos your doing ever sooo well on your quit journey  

Hmmm, Bournemouth brings back a lot of lovely childhood memories for me even when I was bed ridden for 3 days cos of sun burn !!!! The very lovely land Lady looked after me as in rubbing calamine lotion on my shoulders and back and fed me  

Its a good 5 hours journey from where I live to Bournemouth and er-in-doors dont travel very well soooo havnt been their for some time  

J, I know myself, in the early days of my quit, I just dernt go down to the pub !!!! cos most of my mates smoked and alcohol and smoking go hand in hand  

J, please stand fast and be strong cos when your ready for a tipple, you will know

Thank you for your advice.  I love BOURNEMOUTH and will never move again . Funny thing happened this morn my hubby was at the local car boot when someone told him all the heart problems come out once you give up smoking. I don't think he needed much encouragement and has come off the e cig and gone back to smoking. Asked me if i wanted one i had no interest what so ever, first time ever on cold turkey i can say that.

Hi J160, 

It Sounds like you have got things pretty much under control...knowing your triggers is a great thing as you are aware and avoidance is often the best way until you are ready..you will know when the time is right😀😀👍👍

Keep up the great quit you have going 😀😀🚭🚭👏👏
