:kisses3: hi ab - long time no [STRIKE]see / speak [/STRIKE]read / type

How's it going? You off the booze and the fags now?



Don't suppose you went to any 'fancy' hotels in Wales did you? I am looking for somewhere for our 2nd Wedding Anniversary in a few weeks.

no chance of fancy hotels with me m'dear, tranny van with bike in the back and a caravan behind lol, had a great time though, not quite beaten the ale but have cut down a lot, the hafod hotel in devils bridge seems nice, stunning location double room b&b £72 www.the hafodhotel.co.uk

hi just wanted to drop in and say well done to everyone who is trying to stop smoking :T i was a heavy never gonna give up smoker :rolleyes: and my last fag was 230 pm 03/01/08:j :j if i can do it then anyone can the two big things what helped me through the tough first few weeks were deep breathing ( you know just like you did when you took a lug of that fag) and rembering that if i lighted up a fag now it wouldnt taste the same as the last fag i smoked so there for pointless doing it it dose get better in time so good luck :T :T

Still doing fine here! still chesty, but I have saved £29 cash, and 10h 35 minutes of my life

I have had the odd drag off my husbands roll ups, but he's not here today, and I've had no cravings. The odd drags seem to be helping me actually. I'm not half as stressed as I was when I was having nothing at all, and they are giving me enough of a boost to get through the day. Next step is to quit that totally (which shouldn't be a problem...If I can quit 20 a day for 3 or 4 drags of a roll up, I don't think there'll be much problem dropping the roll up lol)

Great going earwig! Congratulations on your success! Yours too MFD!
Keep pushing on Hawthorn, you're doing really well, but as soon as you can, wean yourself off of those snatched puffs and you'll be so pleased you did.

Thanks a lot Riz much appreciated. You're getting half way to your first week already, brilliant!
Good to see you marjem, so that's 4 days gone already, well done! I'm so pleased you're doing it for you! Keep it up. Welcome BungleGirl, ask your husband to have a chat at the Drs surgery, I'm sure they'll give him all the advice and help he needs. No matter what, keep strong with your quitting in spite of him..... you may well bring him around to thinking of quitting too some day! I hope so for your sake.

Have a really good day today! You CAN do it!

morning all. I have my appraisal in an hour, could quite happily have a smoke lol. I am still on my patches but I could probaly drop them now. However, I did that before so I think I will keep going for a few more weeks
Hope everyone had a smoke free evening and catch you all later

Hawthorn

I did! Hubby was at work so no snatched puffs LOL
