Well i have read all the posts on here today, i have gone back and forward to this site all day trying to find the strength not to have one cig.  Finally i could put it off no longer i had to go to the shop, as i got to the check out that little devil was still on my shoulder but i did it i went to the self service so i couldn' t ask for them. Walked out of that shop with the biggest grin on my face. Thanks to willpower and all you who have replied to me today i think i'm going to be fine. I have just devoured a bag of bigger than normal crisps but who cares i will worry about that later. I am a non smoker .

Wow! Loving that momentary choice of going to self-check out! Powerful!!

That's what it's about. Those choices take you into a strong quit against trying to climb out of the smoking pit again & again & again & again-

May your confidence grow from that choice & Crisps taste even better! :O)

The rest can follow once we've put Mr.Nic down once & for all. I have to go gentle at times, if Ben & Jerry calls I don't give myself a hard time, that usually just generates a vicious cycle of eating more! Not smoking is the most loving action I've done for myself, with a loving attitude I naturally begin to desire to exercise etc..For the buzz against a regime. Making my quit FUN is key! Best, iris/NOPE

Awesome!!! I had a pack of shortbread and feel terrible about it (well not too much), but like you I am a non-smoker!
