day one
after 13 years of smoke days. today i am smoke free. it is a great pleasure to me..thank god i just throw away the nasty habit. free from 3000 chemical particles of cigarette smoke.. thank u i can quit..
You sure can, keep the faith, drink heaps of water, exercise and keep busy, watch your health improve, the smell leave your life, and keep reading the blogs.
thank you cath , yesterday night was not easy.. i drink water if urging comes.
Hello everyone. I have been smoking for over 40years. I need to stop for my health. I need lots of encouragement. I haven't set a date yet & I've had 1 cigarette today. I get a bit panicky when I think about quitting. I want to do this. Please tell me how you got over your first hurdle.
OK today is my first no smoking day. Im encouraged by the fact that I can keep track of my progress here.
Hi everyone im on day 5 of not smoking for 26 years and ugh i was sick of it, the cravings are hitting hard and i feel so depressed i have not been able to eat ...
today is the first day of my journey to non smoker status.
i have purchased a pack of smokes but i have also made a commitment by setting a date
i am taking this slowly one small step at a time
i am new to this so i am going end the post here
First day today and it has helped that I was sick. I didn't go to work and spent the day between being ill and doing house work. Tomorrow is a new day and I threw out ashtrays and lighters and anything that makes me think about smoking
I really want tomorrow to be my quit day but not feeling too confident. Help!
Here I am again on day one. I have to give up some time, so preferably not just before getting into a box. I've quit before, and it hasn't been that challenging-just take one day at a time, and count off the days, then the weeks, then the months-I've not got to count off the years-hopefully one year from today 😊
Have got a diary and am marking when a crave comes-eac crave that I overcome is erasing a future crave snd the addiction
Day 1 for me on Monday. Excited, scared. Exhilaration. A lot of emotions, but feel ready for this journey
day 2 for me today thanks weewillem for your words of encouragement yesterday..... must remember the one day at a time motto :-)
Hello I've been smoking for 20years I haven't planned a date just yet to quit,as I'm afraid to be tempted when I have a drink over the Easter period,but will defiantly will reassess the situation after Easter .Reading the blogs is very encouraging though :)
I must quit due to health problems caused by cigarretes. It will be the biggest pay rise I've ever been given nd I can give it to myself. Good luck everyone
Tomorrow is the day my last packet of smokes will run out. Wish me luck....I will need all the help I can get.
Day 1.
It has only been a couple of hours and it is all I think about, I get excited because I think 'oh I'll go have a smoke'... then I remember.
Wow this is going to be harder than I though!
For once in my life I am being selfish and doing this FOR ME, not my kids or the money, just me and to be rid of the smell and the hold it has over my life and my actions. They say know your triggers and avoid them but jow do you do that when EVERYTHING is a trigger? I am 30 years old and have smoked since I was around 14..... 14, what was I thinking!
On the up side I feel hopeful that I can do this, even though my chest feels heavy and I feel like I may experience my 1st panic attack.
Day 1. I've had so many day 1 efforts but never quite make it to day 2-3 & 4. Here's hoping.
