Good morning! 
Hope everyone had a good nights sleep, apart from Pete who had to work. 
Andi thanks for the advice about exercise.
Lisa -jane its not friday the 13th today so no accidents. 
Emjay, Dawn and everyone else. have a lovely day.
Back soon.
Morning Jillygirl, hey did you have a good nights sleep gal, did you try the mask and ear muffs ????
Well i'm finished work now until 6pm Monday night yippeeeeeee
Pete
Morning Emjay, i see that you found the comments on pineapples then !! i called at the shop on my way home this morning and bought one 
all i've got to do now is cut it up !?
Ha ha anybody know how you should cut a pineapple up ???? i've always bought tins of it before, ready chunked
Also i can just remember cutting the top off a pineapple at school, and growing it somehow, not sure how though
Good morning Jilly, Pete and everyone else.
I can see you're on a high Pete as you haven't got to work for 3 whole days now!
AND the sun is about to come out!!! 
The shop Lakeland does a really good gadget for peeling and slicing pineapples. You can probably get it in other places now though.
Are you gonna dust your bike back off now that it's finally supposed to be drying out? We're supposed to be getting quite a few showers today though, so will try to catch up indoors today so can be out and about otherwise.
Morning Andi, i hope you had a good nights sleep gal, hey thats funny Andi, you asking me about my bike, cus yesterday one of the lorry drivers was saying that you can get sadles with the gel in certain places, to help with you know what 
cus i had a look at the shorts with gel in them, hmmmmm just not me gal 
Just been looking online at Asda store, and they sell these sadles at £7. 49 each, so might just get one tomoz
You will soon harden up! (No pun intended! ) I think you should try the shorts. When I bought my bike I got an old fashioned saddle with springs in at the time and a larger area to sit on! (No, I think my backside is still the same size ) They also do these gel saddle covers. Better off spending the money on a pineapple gadget.
Pete try this site. ( i dont like pineapple so have to make do with my apples and melons)
Morning everyone - T F I F! Hope you can all work that one out lol! Well I've got my lovely
3 days in Bognor to look forward to, the sun is gonna shine and I'm gonna be smoke free so
HAPPY DAYS!!!! Have a lovely day everyone.
Dawn x
Have a lovely time Dawn, I'm sure you'll enjoy yourself no matter what the weather is like.
Hi Dawn, have a super smokefree holiday. and yeah worked the T F I F out.
Good morning everyone
Sorry I’ve not been on for a few days. It’s been crazy ? .
Jillygirl, you must have felt so proud when you told your friend you had quit smoking. WELL DONE .
We have more quitters; welcome. I hope you find the site useful
Hi Pete, are you enjoying your pineapple? I’m not too fussy when it comes to food but I don’t like pineapple ? .
Morning Andi22 how’s your calf? I’m sore today after bootcamp on Wednesday, the things we do!!!! Well done with sticking with it
How is everyone else????
Mel and I will check in throughout the day and get any questions answered.
Speak soon
Morning Claire, hopefully calf will be ok. Still going careful, got these exercises to do (suggested in the garden but I didn't want to be carted off! ) so I do them indoors - running and skipping and other things. Alternate days I have to run/walk outside - one minute of each for 10 minutes. Have interpreted this as 10 mins running in total and am being good and doing it all on the flat in a nearby park.
My pt keeps wanting me to go to his bootcamp. I said I'd wait for the weather to improve before starting and now he says I can't cos the running's too much for me yet! Can't seem to win. 
Well, the site's going a bit funny again this morning!!!
Is it the site, orrrrrrrrrrrr you
Andi your right the site is being silly. I reported a fault on the feedback tab like emjay asked. I tell you pc gremlins seem to aim at us two.
I had trouble earlier, it said the server had timed me out, or something like that!!!! i thought that they had got it sorted, but obviously not !!!!
Hey what does TFIF mean shhhhhhhh, i can think of ermmmm some things i cant post on here, but nooooooo a Lady wouldnt say things like that !! would she ??????
Morning jilly and everyone..
4 weeks today!!!! woooooooooohooooooooooooooooooooooo...I actually cant believe I have done it and with no slip ups.. I would give myself a pat on the back however im too busy shoving ritz crackers down my throat to do that!!!
so thank you everyone for helping me get through,seriously dont think I could have done it otherwise.
Im not sure if its in my head or not but since they put me on the lower patches apart from being very snappy with everyone and even a bit tearful (which is very unlike me) Im eating non stop...
I also now am getting hiccups whenever i use my minis,or other NRT ?? anyone can help me out on that one!!
Aup Lisa-Jane, thats just suuuuuuuuper gal
Just wondered erm if your tummy is swelling, as in eating for two !! am out of here
Morning Lisa, thought you'd be about by now. Just having a ponder (and I'm sure I shouldn't really say this BUT ) if you're getting all the symptons now anyway, why not just ditch all the nrt and embrace all the sh.. and get it over and done with once and for all!!!! Then you won't have to put your household through it all every time you have to make a reduction!
Anyway, apart from all that, a BIG CONGRATULATIONS on getting 4 weeks under your belt now!!
Morning Lisa - jane, BIG well done 4 weeks. I too keep having weepy moments and bit snappy I thought it was with being stressed over the house selling. but may be its us NONE SMOKERS ! dont know about hiccups wait for claire or emjay they may know.

Thanks Pete
ive just got them as a back up to my patches.so 4 weeks use and they have never given me hiccups till ive gone on to this lower dose patch. Ive got the 1.5mg so quite low
I have a friend whom whenever he smokes more than usual he gets hiccups, he hates them!! you'd think he'd quit for that reason ..17 years on hes still got the hiccups!! so Im wondering if its go anything to do with too much nicotine, messing with your system?? I think Im going to have a look online.
thanks Pete,... haha yep i defo have put on weight I can feel it, so can my belt which has had to loosen!!
Andi , you know what I have been thinking the same thing today as im now on 14 mg patch. I didnt expect to feel this iffy!! Ive done the cold turkey thing before,the nicotine would have been out my system but like a fool I then went back to smoking, think it I may try it again though. Thats the way you quit wasnt it?
jilly... Its amazing how it makes you feel!! I wonder how many of us had known all this before we started smoking.. would we have started!!
but thanks everyone for the support...
On my quest for the reasons to find out about the hiccups i came across this guy...
maybe just my warped sense of humor but I found this totally hilarious.. so thought id share....
