Day 43 step by step

I had a lovely experience on Day 40, I was asked what perfume I was wearing caus I smelt soooo good. I was chuffed caus I don't smell like an ASHTRAY any more. I was told by the lady at the cafe but still that has given me a real incentive over the last few days to continue. It's definitely hard but definitely achievable. I often smell my hands if I have a craving and appreciate they smell good. Walking heaps and doing lots more walking and activities outside with my eight year old, making a big effort to get up, get going and get moving and enjoy every single day. Keep strong x

Great stuff 43 days.
How lovely it is to not have smoke smell clinging to you.

Hi Nannette. It never ceases to amaze me when fellow quitters reveal what has surprised them on the quit trail. The sense of smell is a bonus as is a the knowledge that one simply does not stink... Thrilled for you that you enjoyed the compliment. As a smoker, I doubt if anyone would compliment us and I can appreciate what an eye opener it just have been for you. May you continue to be surprised and complimented in the future.
