Happy to cross 200 days last week. It was not a easy journey. The benefits I sensed so far

  1. I am able to smell much better.
  2. Not catching cold very often. 
  3. Work time and Family time are not interrupted with smoking breaks.
  4. Saved around 800 to 1000 Euros in the last 7 months of quiting.
  5. Did not buy chewing gum or extra coffee to suppress the smell.
  6. No anxiety to find a shop to buy a cigerette packet.

problems

  1. Gained 11 kilos of weight in 7 months.
  2. No mood to excercise, actually feel nothing is interesting. 
  3. disturbed sleep. Even many nights dreamed of smoking. Dreamed of searching for cigeretts
  4. Not interested in food diet.
  5. Tempted a lot to taste one puff, especially during travel. The smoking lounges / booths in airport transit area tempted me a lot to buy one pack. Mind told me it is only after 7 months and it is only during the travel. Somehow managed to divert the mind. 

Expecting to be smoke free for the rest of the life.

Yay, I think you are doing well... I especially liked, "Expecting to be smoke free for the rest of the life." Me too!! You are wayyyy ahead of me. I am only close to 2 months so 200 days is a very long time and I will be there with the attitude you have. Thank you for your words,,, they inspire me. I have really bad moments, but they are only "moments" and the bad goes away... I know it is doable, as I read the history of many on this site. Some smoked way more than I and if they can do it, I can too. WE can too!!! Good luck with your journey.. You are doing so good, keep it up!!
