Ali-OK reporting in (thanks to PM from TNG)
Update from here: Roller-coaster of stopping/starting and then badly fell off smoke-free wagon for ages.
Started patches again 2 weeks ago and had 2 ciggies since...have days when I fervently don't want to smoke and days when all I want to do is smoke and can't stop thinking about it!
Don't think I've saved any money though - smoke free days have turned into caramel shortcake days. Oops - that wasn't the plan!
Well done to everyone - I feelBack on the DFW Wagon:

Hi Ali really no need to feel
- we've all been there and done that. The important thing is that you're still going for the quit!! I share your frustration as I still have days where I really want a ciggie and think about it constantly (yes even now) but most days I don't give it a second thought and when I do I just breathe through it. I swear by the silkquit metre - worth downloading cause I don't think caramel shortcake (mmmm) is as expensive as ciggies :rotfl: and also stay on my guard as I'm convinced if I become complacent Mr O'Teen will sneak up on me :eek: !!
Welcome Elle hope your quit is going well! Adz really said it all, you are in the right place for support and a bit of a laugh!!
Hi to everyone else - hope all going well!
love and hugs
