Trying again!!!!

Hi all, I decided to stop smoking yesterday! No plan in place for a change, it was too cold to walk to the shops so I thought now is the time. I've been smoke free for just over 26 hours, a record for me!!

I'm not sure if the lack of plan has helped (I bought patches today) but I don't feel as worked up as in previous attempts when it was planned, it was all I used to think about on the run up to the day!!

Anyway just wanted to say thanks for having me, I'm enjoying reading all the posts.
