I can't believe how well i've done - nearly 10 days exactly and no ciggies - I thought I might have caved in at the weekend - socialised pretty heavily - but no I was really good and didn't succumb to Mr Nicotines charm !!!!!! |

On the 16th September, it will be 7 months without a smoke. After 45 years of smoking, I decided enough was enough, so gave up there and then, no patches, no chewing gum, just will power, good eh LOL Baz |

Hi Debs good to see you still aren't smoking either. I still miss the odd one, but haven't succumbed at all. So proud of myself !! |

Baz ditto - I last had a cigarette on 6th Feb. Haven't used patches or anything. As you said, just willpower & determination. The longer you go, the more the determination kicks in. I still sometimes fancy one, but it's not a huge craving. Best of luck TJ, you can do it! Angela |

Sorry TJ but I do not know you, but want to congratulate you on you going 72 hours without the dreaded weed. Hubby has just looked at me and asked whilst I was typing ' why I had a smile on my face' So I told him, and he says 'Well done' Heres me still puffing away. I did actually go 8 months without one about three years ago, and failed, but still desparatley want to give up. I PROMISE TO GIVE UP ONE DAY. Wishing you all the the best on being a Non Smoker. Jenny xx |

The hours are creeping up and the breathlesness subsiding - increased steroids tho' - can't wait to be able to breathe without the dreaded steroids - but better to be alive than dead eh? That's how close I felt on sunday night / monday morn and why the WEEDS had to go. I'm still pleased i gave up tho' xxxxxxx |
