81 days

Ok day 81 today, The last few days have been really tough!
I almost caved in and bought a packet of smokes the other night, But tried really hard to distract myself which obviously worked, but it was such a mind game.
I have no idea why this is happening now, You'd think this road would get easier and smoother as time goes by. But i guess we've been addicted to this habit for a long, long time and its going to take a while to nail this habbit.
Anyway- positive, positively we keep on going...
Good luck and stay strong :)

MargR I am now in my 174th day and was in the same situation at your stage and also at 140th+ days. You have come very far and should be proud of it.
It was really trying but I manage to get over these hurdles, now it has become easier. They are no more cravings but memories and I feel more my 'myself'. You just have to stay quit and soon you will get over to the other side of the hill. I hope this makes sense to you.

Hahah as i was saying, Thank you So much quitsmart,Its such a comfort knowing some-one understands whats happening, At times you think your so alone on this crazy journey.
So thanks and yes what you say does make sense.

You're doing great and congrats on becoming a non smoker. Sure there are times you will get the thought come back to you about smoking- but you have done so well and ur strong enough not to give in to it

Congratulations! Stories like yours are so inspirational, so thankyou for sharing. All the best :)
