Biggest Challenge yet - also 62 days
Hi all feeling a little bit smug for making 62, yep I said 62 days how amazing is that, but even better I attended a wedding on the week-end really full on few days from Fri to Sun heaps of drinking, eating and partying, with quite a few smokers present - one in particular thought he was very funny by trying to grab me and drag me outside to join him and I resisted !!!!!!!!!! YAY ME can't believe even in my drunken state I didn't give in (I hadn't had a drink since I stopped smoking because I thought I would be tempted). So yes I feel I am entitled to be a bit smug. thinking of you all my fellow quitters one smoke, one step at a time and we will all make it
Hi Chezzel. Well done and I totally identify with the feeling of elation when we know we are well on the way to beating the demon. Like you I have had people who have tried to entice me to smoke. I believe they are really jealous that we have quit. I had one idiot who waved a packet of cigarettes in my face ( sad really ). Well done again and thanks for the post
That's really encouraging. It's my first day off the bungers I hope I get to 62 days like you chezzel
Thanks for the story 👍
Well done to you, I had it happen to me too and I think Dobbin is right, about them being jealous but it's still really hard not to cave in to the nicotine demon, so again well done and keep on going😎
Hey Chezzel, i am not too far behind you at 51days and yes it does get better does'nt it. I find cravings do not dominate me unless i reflect on them when they strike. The habit is amazingly disappearing. I do things i used to do without a cigarette between my fingers and not missing the smokes. Been told by ex smokers you need 90 days to be somewhat "out of the woods". After that gets easier and easier..........the 2 persons that gave me this advice have been non smokers for 8 and 13 yrs. So, everyone on this site , no matter how long you have been on the quit, please do not stop trying. Quitting CAN be achieved.
