The Giving Up Smoking Thread!!

Bellie_2

Lol MFD I know whats missing but it feels like when you know you have forgotten something you just dont know what. 45 mins and I have done 2 days with no smoking. Cant claim it is all willpower as i fell asleep for 3 hours on the sofa earlier! Lol MFD can I ask how long you have ben stopped for??

Hi Bellie,

Today is day 12 for me - which is nearly over, I find the evenings at home the easiest because I didn't really smoke much then anyway.

Tomorrow is day 13, which I am hoping will not be unlucky for me then day 14 and moving into week 3!!


I am going back to see the nurse on Tuesday to blow into the carbon monoxide doo-dah. That will read 0 I am sure because I will be 17 days smoke free by then. I want to chat about reducing the patches (I am only wearing them in the daytime already) and what will happen when I stop wearing them.

All in all I feel I am going strong! Hope everyone else is too!

Hi all i have decided to leave this thread well not leave but not post everyday as tbh it kind of reminds me im not smoking and sometimes makes me feel like a cig (i made that sound as tho its depressing lol but its not). I dont know why it makes me think i want a cig but sometimes it does..think its a reminder i dont smoke.

so i will post in a few days (prob tomo coz i wont be able to resist lol)

It will be day 3 tomorrow at 5.45pm (its now been nearly 48hours) does anyone have a site of how i will be feeling this time tomorrow and what to expect as i forgot what happends/feels on day 3? LOL i cant stay away!!!

You fibber Mumzy! Still, you're keeping with us so I reckon you're fully out to quit for good! Keep it up and keep on taking small steps, but making each go on to the next day...and the next...and....... You CAN do it, you just need to keep strong and keep that promise....to yourself and the kiddies! Love and hugs, Sue.

Morning everyone,

Just wanted to share something with all you non - smokers. I went to a Yoga class last night, 1st time in years. It was really strange because they get you to breath with all of your lungs, which I've not been used having been a smoker for 10 years (today is day 16 of not smoking).

What I'm trying to get at is that it made me feel even better about not smoking because I was using all my (now healthy-ish) lungs to breath! I would recomend it to you all, apart from I've got a bit of neck ache this morning! :j

Lurkio was it not 3 days? So tomorrow i wont have any cravings at all?
when do people stop using patches. Iam thinking of using them up till i come back of my hols on 20th april BUT i dont want to be in my swim suit showing everyone my patch, My mum smokes too so guna be real tough when i go see her
