The Giving Up Smoking Thread!!

My_Fathers_Daughter

S'sP (I just can't abbreviate you as SP!!!) - that's good news at least (sounded like you were going to cough up a lung if you kept on going!) Was the doc supportive of your quit?

My doc is downright rude about me ever smoking in the first place (and I have never been to him with anything smoking related) but the nurse if loverley!

Day 7! Moving into week 2! Well done you!


ab - just a few in the local tonight, I am steering away from any really boozy nights at the moment. Keeping temptation at bay for a while never harmed anyone!

day 17 for me, breathing is now easier, im not wheezing anymore
im not on anyreplacements anymore gave them up on day 10 as i really didnt want them either
and im not missing them or the rollies :T

even better i walked past someone who was smoking yesterday, and it stank, it was revolting, and it confirms that i was right to give up

Hello everyone

Im about to give up smoking d-day being tomorrow in fact!!!! Main reason for deciding was having the money for other things and of course my health....DOes anyone have any hints or tips to help me along.....getting my patches this afternoon and OH is going to put the first one on me before he leaves for work at 6am tomorrow......


Well done to all who have managed to give up and heres to me jumping on the bandwagon!

my nurse is nice,clueless but in a nice sort of way, she's typical of people who have never smoked in that they just cannot comprehend what its like to quit. like my youngest son (21) we were driving on the m6 one day and I lit a fag up, he said why do you smoke? I said for something to do, he looked at me like I was a complete effing loon and said why don't you just scratch your @rse , I told him to f off

Morning everyone, couldnt sleep last night, so woke up really late this morning. But not cravings as such. Just have to keep reminding myself I no longer smoke. When I have finished something like the housework I think oh yay I can have a ciggy now, and then have to remind my I dont smoke anymore. Good luck for tomorrow coolmumh. Well done and hugs to everyone else, x

Stuff all the welcome aboard speeches from now - we can just ask the new quitters why they don't scratch their a$$es instead :T


Non-smokers just don't have a clue do they? my hubby bless him is only just realising how much commitment is involved in being a smoker now I have given up!
