WEEKEND CHAT 15th/16th MARCH 2025🚭💪💬

[Briarwood]

Hello and welcome to our Weekend Chat everyone🙋‍♀️

Here’s how Quit Support can help you………………

We want to give encouragement to you on your quit smoking journey. Whether you’re thinking about stopping smoking or have started your journey already, or perhaps you are having another attempt. It doesn’t matter which one of these it is, we’re here for you.

Quitting smoking is the most important thing you can do for your health. We want to support you as quitting isn’t easy and support can make a huge difference.

Every person is different and what suits someone, may not suit another. You are important and we are happy to share our knowledge and experience with everyone.

We have a wealth of experience as all our admin were smokers who have quit. We really do understand what it’s like as we’ve been where you are now. Our members experiences are also invaluable as everyone brings something different. So there’s a wide variety of help here. You in turn may be helping someone else by asking a question that they would like to know about too.

We will do our very best for you as you will be doing the very best for yourself by quitting.

We are all supporting one another as that’s exactly what this wonderful community is all about.

So please don’t be shy, pop on here and introduce yourself. A problem shared is a problem halved. A chat is also a great diversion from those cravings and it’s so good to know that other people are here. You are not alone and it’s NEVER too late to quit smoking🚭💪

Let’s get chatting💬💬💬💬💬💬💬

Have a great Weekend and NOPE🚭👍🤗🍰🫖🍰🫖🍰🫖xx

Mornin', Briarwood, All!

You know, it's so gratifying to know that others understand how it is to be a smoker/nicotine addict. There's a feeling of natural, unforced affinity right from the start, which I find soothing.

I was reminded just yesterday (the post about how your body recovers from day one of quitting) of one of the early benefits of stopping - the effect it has on your ability to taste food.

Since quitting, my sense of taste seems to just get better and better. A juicy peach, some creamy walnuts or my morning grapefruit tastes simply incredible to me - no exaggeration. Plainer, simpler food, like my morning rye toast, taste delicious now, whereas I never used to eat toast because it tasted of nothing! I always had to have very strong flavours, or I wouldn't enjoy my meals. I'd completely forgotten how scrumptious things like scrambled eggs or mashed potatoes or roast tomatoes or...or... could be.

It's another unexpected bonus on top of all the other benefits of quitting I've enjoyed, and this one is among the best for a foodie like me. I just wanted to share my wicked pleasures with everyone.😋😋😋

Must be lunchtime soon.😋

[Briarwood Administrator Ducky in reply to LifeIsACabaret]

Good afternoon LIAC🙋‍♀️

Thanks so much for sharing your delicious pleasures and I love that they’re all healthy too😋 You’ve made me very hungry now😂

Have a wonderful afternoon 🙌🤗xx
