Still going strong

I've reached day 8, woo hoo. I'm still feeling really positive although I have thought about having a ciggie, for a second or two but that passed fairly quickly. I have my moments of coughing hysterically and then whatever comes up after that. It's not pleasant but it's cleaning out my lungs. I went and had a facial and am really enjoying the fresher looking me. I have support from my staff health nurse and will see her again on Monday. I've surprised myself, I am actually calmer then I thought I would be. I'm generally a fairly anxious girl, but even my anxiety has been non existent. Now that is one reason in itself to continue on this journey. Happy Weekend People. :)

That's the way Jude....enjoy yourself and live it up with the money you save.....i do. Great that when i go out with friends i do not have to step out into the smoker's section every 30-45mins. then coming back with the stench that offends some people. Keep going.. ignore the urges .. they will pass believe me. Cheers.

Keep going Jude....it is worth it....believe me. Urges will come and go but there are so many "long term" benefits. I was a heavy smoker for many years and have been off the smokes now for 3 years. Best thing I ever did was getting off them and I enjoy spending the money I save :-)

Well done Jude!!!

So happy to hear you have support and even

better that you're noticing a reduction in

anxiety. Win Win!!
