  • ha ha great minds dundeedoll we must have been writing at same time xx
  • Sue - wishing you all the best for today. Hope you make a speedy recovery. We will be thinking of you. xxx

    After reducing my champix dose to 1mg a day I am sleeping so much better. I feel more like myself again. Still tired but goes with the territory of having a 4 year old and working full time!

    By the way davey, to answer your question; there's definitely a Techie board,

    Hahaha you shouldn't have told me that...I waste far too much of my life on the forums as it is :)

    Good Luck Sue! Hope it all goes well for you.

    Loving my new pills. One dose and I woke up this morning with very little pain. Feel like I could walk for miles today :j:j:j


    BH bought a pack of cigs yesterday :mad: I had the feeling the timing just wasn't right for him. Tried to explain to him you can't stop smoking just because your partner has. But he says he's going to try again today. Hope he manages it, but would rather when he gets the urge to try some NRT rather than a smoke. NM I'm sure he'll do it this time.


    Congratulations to everyone else who's got another day of time below their belt :)

    Yesterday was my last day on the 25mg patches, and I have 6 weeks supply of the stage 2 15mg which I've started today.

    This is day 32 for me, and according to Quitnet.com I've saved a total of £170. I'm still feeling good, and last night I got a reasonable night's sleep - so today is (hopefully) going to be a good day.

    Good luck everyone, it's al worthwhile!!! :)

    Hi Sue,

    For the last three weeks or so I have been doing laps of the village that would make Forest Gump proud. Clocked 50-60 km so far, have the sniffles at teh moment but can't wait to hit the road again soon. On a structured development plan that helps me build strength/endurance/ditance and speed into the leggies in a controlled and progressive fashion. Maybe nexst year I will enter some races???
    Was in debt £23k- Not now (12/07-12/10):T
    Did smoke- Not any more (26-02-11):j
    I am not perfect but everyone loves a trier don't they??:A

    wow shadydaz you are certainly going some with your laps i really must think about incorporating exercise again i used to go to spinning but since being on night shift have felt rather unmotivated and zombie like but only have another 2 weeks before getting back on days so hopefullly a routine will click back in ,...

    its amazing how the amount mounts up daveys isnt it a magic motivator to keep on going :T

    i just love how i smell so different no more "au de fag ash ":rotfl:
