Life is unfair. We all need to accept this. What feels good is generally bad for you. Humans are so smart but yet we travel through life in the belief that these bad things will not happen to us. There are 2 things you can be sure of. You don't know what you have until you loose it. And. You don't realise until its to late.

The trick is to accept this and be one step ahead. Smoking is all in your head. You are strong !

Hi Darkside,

Very true what you've written. I don't want to take anything for granted anymore.

Hey Kim Thanks for the feedback. I ha e been free from the smoking demon for only 4 days now but already feeling better.

The key is to stay busy and focused. For me its about my health not the money. How about you ?

Hiya Darksider,

Hey no probs and well done being 4 days smoke free.

I'm the same as you, health more important than cost by a long shot although the prices are insane now.

Weird how much I care about eating healthy but smoked.

You're so right about staying busy and focused and apart from the health reasons, I love putting on perfume and not smelling like an ashtray anymore.

It's a real eye opener one you quit just how much it really does stink.

Hey Darksider,

I think I'm Day 67 or 68. I'm using cut up lozenges to help me. Most days I'm on top of it but like today for example, I nearly caved but so glad I didn't. How you doing?

Hey kim26. It has been 11 days cold turkey. After smoking for 22 years feeling good no problems so far.

How old are you ? How long were you smoking for ?
