Morning everyone how are we all ? ๐Ÿ˜Š Afew posts recently been posted got me thinking ๐Ÿค”.. . Quiting smoking isnโ€™t easy but itโ€™s the best thing you can do for your health I started smoking at 13! Thinking I was cool ๐Ÿ˜Ž and itโ€™s what everyone did right? I continued to smoke and gradually smoked more and more and before I knew it I was addicted to that nicotine monster ๐Ÿ‘น I thought doctors were just saying pack in smoking for your health was just a thing they said ( especially as my gp would smoke aswell) anyway . . . .. . Fast forward when I got to 41 I was getting very breathless going upstairs and generally getting out of breath doing daily things I booked in with the doctor and after months of tests found out Iโ€™d got copd emphysema . . . Not me I thought Iโ€™m to healthy Iโ€™m just a little out of breath . . . I was in denial ๐Ÿ˜•then it it me like a ton of bricks when I caught a cold and couldnโ€™t even breathe I put on weight and wouldnโ€™t do much due to breathing difficulties . . . It was my son who got me to quit I couldnโ€™t help him as I was so out of breath and struggling and he is disabled and needed me ! From that day I decided enough was enough I chucked the smokes in the bin and slowly packed in it was definitely one of the hardest things Iโ€™ve done but also one of the best achievements aswell๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿฅฐ Iโ€™ve still got emphysema it wonโ€™t go now but Iโ€™m actually healthier than Iโ€™ve been in years since packing in ๐Ÿ’ชin reality smoking isnโ€™t cool๐Ÿ˜Ž like I thought it was years ago . If I can do it you can ๐Ÿ˜Šyes it might be hard you have to change your routine you have to be determined and motivated but the benefits are amazing ๐Ÿคฉ๐Ÿ˜Š you can do it ! Youโ€™ve got this ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿ˜Š

Have a great day everyone and keep smiling ๐Ÿ˜Š
