Hi sizzet, Well done for your decision to quit👏

Welcome to Quit Support.💙

It’s never easy to quit but it’s easier with a little support.💪

Please read the pinned posts,📌 there is lots of information there. You will find the posts to the right or at the bottom of your screen depending which device you are using.

May I suggest you drink plenty of water💧💦 to flush out the toxins and keep yourself hydrated.

If you feel you need any more help please don’t hesitate to ask. There is always someone here.

May I remind you not to post any personal information.

Good luck with your quit.🍀🚭xx

Hi sizzet.

Welcome to Quit Support, our friendly support community where all of our members are on, or have been on a journey to become smoke🚭free.

Congratulations on deciding to quit smoking, 👏👏👏👏 well done, it will be the best decision you ever make in you life. Check out our community Pinned Posts, there will be info there to help you on your journey to become smoke🚭free, you will find the pinned posts to the right of this page, or at the bottom of the page, depending on which device you are using.

Drink plenty of water to help flush the toxins from your body, and it will also keep you hydrated.

Make sure you have some freshly sliced fruit (apples, pears etc)in an airtight bag in the refrigerator to use as an alternative to a cigarette.

You may find the journey to become smoke🚭free very hard going, but with encouragement and support from your fellow friendly members in this community, it will be a little easier to bare!

Our community mantra is NOPE(Not One Puff Ever) 🚭

So for now, we look forward to supporting you on your smoke🚭free journey!

This may seem repetative to tubbys message above, we were more than likely responding to you at the same time?

😀🌞👏👏👏👍🚭NOPE!

Thanks all for the tips, will take the hydration and fruit advice and also believe 100% in NOPE! I have failed previously by having a few drags.

Thanks all 👍

If you fall by the wayside and are tempted by old Nic, worry not, pick yourself up, dust yourself down, and start all over again.

You may want to tell the community that you had a cigarette, thats your choice, but we dont judge people in this community, we have all been there! 😀

While you are still trying you have not failed sizzet. We like to call them practice runs leading up to the big one and besides we learn something with each practice run which eventually makes us stronger and better equipped to win!
