10 DAYS SMOKEFREE

I am 37 and have smoked regularly since I was 16. My mother was a heavy smoker and she died of Cancer when I was 13 years old. I am a mum of 3 a daughter who recently turned 13 a few weeks ago that was my light blub moment I didnt want her to go through what I did so I went to see the Doc and Started champix straight away. Was a bit scared with all the different stories I had heard about them but I was willing to try. The first week all i noticed was a strange taste in my mouth, second week pretty much the same had cut down on smoking they didnt taste as good nothing much else to mention, 3rd week my quite date was hard got up and wanted that first smoke with my cup of coffee so instread got lunches ready and just kept busy, just before leaving for work had 2 puffs and threw it away did pretty good all day just kept busy drinking water and trying not to stuff my face with food. That night did the same again had 2 puffs and thew all the smokes away and havent had one since wooo hoo. I have continued with the champix and have had no side effects that even rate a mention few headaches nothing very unusal. I walk 3 kms every afternoon because my biggest fear is gaining a ton of weight now so I try and watch what I eat and dont even enjoy coffee anymore. All in all I am very proud of myseft this has been one of the hardest things I thought I would ever do I now consider myseft to be a non smoker and will stay that wayI am determioned to lead a long and happy life with my Family
