53 days in

So it's been 53 days now - I'm now beginning to think of myself as a non-smoker. Was in a bar the other night sitting outside as it was a lovely evening (I was in Singapore) - problem was smoking was allowed on the terrace. Man opposite me lit a ciggy - noticed he was smoking the brand I used to smoke - smoke was blowing in our direction. We had to move - it was nasty, choking and just made me feel sick. My partner gave up years ago and I still smoked - must have been a nightmare now I know what it's like. Even sat next to someone on the bus the other day who was obviously a smoker - he stank! Haha! And I've saved over $900! I'm so happy I stopped - just have to do something about these few extra kilo's I gained while I was away!

weight you can always lose, it is a bit harder to lose emphysema, 53 days way to go, all the best and have a smoke-free life,

Hi that's great you had that reaction to the man smoking, shows your really a non smoker now.

Hey so close to me! You are a non smoker. Buggar any weight gain. Can work on that later. Staying off smokes is so much more important!
Yeh I agree, the weight can always come off later. Well done on the 53 days. How our senses have changed, I too need to move away from the smell as it is awful.
