- only 1 smoke
only 1 smoke

the ex came around yesterday, ended up having 2 puffs on her smoke, tasted bad, I don't class this as a setback - more a learning experience, had a few beers at the club this afternoon & the 2nd hand smoke made me cough - 20 days, feeling great (money saved has paid for bike rego)

Stay on track!
20 days and still counting.
My set-backs started with one puff, then another, n then once I had one full cig I was hooked again.
LOL STOP PUFFING

Hi dpen. Keep adding to the quit days tally. Don't let anyone sabotage your plan. Why would a smoker deliberately light up in front of someone trying to quit? Why would a smoker do ANYTHING to make your decision a challenge. I am sure there is an explanation but none of us would believe it. Yes, you will become healthier and all those $s lying around in your wallet will pay for life's luxuries. You will be amazed at what you can afford just after a week, a month and a year... Stay true to yourself.

Glad to hear you kept on track, sorry to hear your ex was so uncaring. Some smokers just don't know how addictive nicotine is, but we here do. Some smokers are so envious of you for succeeding whereas they did not. Misery loves company....??? If only they could all understand that they too have the capability of quitting this vile addiction. We have. Anyone can if they understand nicotine, WANT to become a non-smoker and Believe that they can!

all good Happiness, she'll be back tomorrow for the night (get the little dog off my bed), all ashtrays etc moved to the woodshed, all good, got this far, have back-pedalled too many times over the years, no more

forgot to mention, money saved will pay for the bike rego (after I sort out the frizzled wiring harness) LOL

Hi dpen, Good idea, the old girl can smoke in the wood shed. Do ya think she might have the manners not to smoke in front of you?
Whats with the little dog on the bed?"

cute little dog, used to sleep on her bed but is stuck with me now (on the floor)

Be nice to the doggy, it didn't try to hurt you. Let her sleep in the woodshed too. lol
