Stoptober club 2013 - Lets have another go!

Just opened my last pack!

AHHHHHHH!

I've been trying to cut down gradually ready for 1st Oct but so far not working at all

I guess I'll have to give the patches another go and use them as a weaning aid this time. Cold turkey never did it for me

Give chewing gum and a pen a try.

I found last year that if you had something for your mouth/hands to do, it became easier.

Thanks, never thought of the pen although I have a full stock of gum. Will stick a pen in my purse/pocket as from now.

That's it, I've finished all the fags and baccy I have in the house - so looks like I'm starting early :eek:

I know I left some baccy and filters at work on Friday but I don't go in until lunchtime. I really hope I can bin them when I get to work (or better still, somebody has helped themselves to them).

Here we go again, this week I will be treating myself to some new make-up if I can go until the weekend. Fingers crossed

ETA - my hands really stink of dirty ashtray at the moment. I am really conscious of the stink of smoking and its one thing I won't be sad to miss.

Looks like penelopedee and CK will both be starting early - good on you both, once you've made the decision why delay?:T:T:T:T:T:T

How are you Heffi1?

13 left in my pack today, will have them then stick on a 24hr patch tonight. Am hoping I cope with the first-one-in-the morning craving tomorrow.

Wow how is it going for those who have already taken the plunge?

5 days in and getting pretty irritable. I have found that keeping a ciggy with me helps...just knowing it's there is enough to make me think I'm not depriving myself of anything. Good luck to those of you just starting your journey.

Cough is getting worse and I'm constantly hungry, will be getting some healthier snacks in later.

For those of you worried about the first morning ciggy try some orange juice instead of tea/coffee.

6 left. Will be 5 in a moment (Just got into Geneva, and start work at 10am local time)

Well I run out last night so have decided to start this morning. Trying to keep busy at work, to keep my mind off it. But it is trying lol
