Hi everyone, still not smoking. I have however been healthy eating too. I find that a bit frustrating trying to do both. So I'm going to still stick to the healthy eating, but if I need a treat I'm going to have it. Not craving as much today, but woke up a few times last night & have a mild headache. Feel smidge light headed but nothing I can't cope with. I went shopping today, bought plenty of fat free & reduced sugar sweets!!! Hope everyone else is still doing well....oh and hubby is still alive & kicking ;0)

Glad to hear your other half is still around haha. I've become addicted to grapes, I get through a whole punnet to myself in a couple of days. Am sure you will soon start sleeping properly again, I think the brain always gets a bit disturbed if you make drastic changes, probably keeps waking you up to make sure you're still alive as you have obviously forgotten to smoke ;)

Hi Jillanovitch, well done on staying smoke free. I too was like sinfree and got through loads of grapes. Then it was melon. Only trouble was stomach wasn't used to the amount I was eating. So cut down a bit. Keep up the good work.

HI jillanovitch and jillygirl, keep going with the healthy food, Unfortunatly I seem to have gone tho other way, eating sweets chocolates ect., Have put on a bit of weight but not worrying to much at the moment, will sort that out later, am also eating more fruit than I used to so not all bad! Funnily enough before I gave up fags I never liked sweets or chocolate.
