I am 60, smoked since I was 13 and am or was the heaviest smoker I knew. I successfully quit half a dozen times, it was staying quit that defeated me. I have a hubby and daughter who both smoke and I am weak, if they are laying around I am sorely tempted, but after being a 50+ a day smoker if I smoke one I no longer feel a failure and keep going.as you can see by my joining date of 2016 this is n...

I always go back on what I say, like forever, well not always. I made a pact in a place of god and I'm going to stick to it...

hi shared my first post 6 months ago i had given up smoking on the 8th of september last year my wife decided to join me as a non smoker a few weeks later no prompting from me. just decided if i could do it so could she. my wife used champex for 2 weeks but did not like it. she started chewing gum and it worked for her she is now smoke free for 5 1/2 months like me she still thinks she would...

10 months Today!!! Wow..it really blows my mind that I haven't had a cigarette for 10 months. It's the best i have ever done, even longer than when I quit whilst I was pregnant. And when I first decided to quit this time round, I was so scared..didn't want to fail..didn't know how I would get through the days..I was a 10 cigs a day smoker, very habitual. And I enjoyed them!! But my kids (14 and...

Day3 and I feel terrible!  The urges, night sweats out of nowhere and the constant feeling like I’ve lost a ‘dear friend.’ Sounds bizarre & stupid I know! I was a heavy smoker for 15yrs every day, almost a pack a day to now, smoke free for 3days. I thought I’d be happy & living life... but I’m depressed, mopping around the house after work (like a l...

I have almost hit 50 days smoke free, partly thanks to Champix. I have had no negative side effects, I have forgotten a few of the pills but I have taken at least one daily. I sometimes miss the 'break' from certain situations that smoking would give me but I've thrown myself into exercise and feel fitter and healthier than ever, which really helps to keep me focused on the life I want for ...

So I finally hit the 1 year mark a couple weeks ago and I feel like Im finally free. For some reason I had this notion in my head that i havent really made it until i hit the 1 year mark. That was a mistake, i should have been celebrating every day that i was a non smoker and not just the 1 year mark. Im not going to lie, it was a really tough year but looking back, i could have made it so muc...

any time I feel the urge to smoke, I tell someone I quit,and so I am not a liar, I dont smoke, it has been working for me!!! I am smoke free 4 months today

Day 205 and still smoke free. Still occasionally think I would like a cigarette when with smokers but quickly tell myself I'm a non smoker. Relatively easy to resist temptation now and I also dislike the smell of cigarette smoke. For those just starting the quit journey or those who have made it further, it does get easier and is worth the effort.

It will be 4 years smoke free for me on the 2nd June this year. I have saved $13,192.00. I've spent it all of course :) It was the first time I had ever tried to quit and I was determined to be free. I used Champix and stayed on it as long as I could so that i had every chance of succeeding. I tolerated it really well with no adverse effects and 4 years later I'm still smoke free! I feel really g...
