    Hi all. Just wanted to say a BIG well done to all those that have managed to keep the cigs from their lips ;)

    I've only just seen this thread and have been thinking of giving up for a while. I hope you don't mind if I join the gang :j

    I will start tomorrow, will be finished my last packet then. Not chucking them away, what a waste of money! We this is a money saving site afterall :rotfl:

    Looking forward to some support and will post how crazy I get day after day:eek:
    Please do not feed the Trolls!
  • Congrats Jo - definately brandy time (not nicotine -lol)!!! I'll have my fingers crossed for you.
    All quiet here - just starting to try and get rid of the increasing flab (although how those Walkers crisps jumped into my mouth I simply don't know - lol!!)
    Take care.

    Hi Neal, welcome to the thread :D and well done deciding to quit :j

    Take a look at the first post on this thread, there's loads of tips and links which will help (definately take a look at the link for Max Kirsten's smoking video - not before, during or after eating though :D). We're all here to help and listen to you so you go crazy!!

    IDA, don't you just hate it when that happens - I unfortunately tripped up earlier in the shop and 2 toblerones and 2 dime bars fell into my basket. I obviously didn't realise till I'd got to the till so thought I'd better buy them ;)

    Hi Neal our post crossed - welcome aboard and feel free to post as much as you like - I certainly did and it made all the difference to my quit!!!
    love and hugs
