Hi all, ive been cruising along enjoying my smoke free life and barely thinking about it. Last night i went out to club with hubby drinking and dancing with band and he slipped up. I felt a twinge for about 3 seconds flat and said to myself no way girl, just breathe and side step this. I thought about if i did what it would taste like and i knew yucky yuck and NOPE💪💪💪 Held strong and true and ...

Hey all, really quick one guys. Just touching base to say on track and loving life. I am sick with flu at the moment but have decided to take leave tomorrow to give myself a break and rest. My freedom is great

Day 35 Today of no smoking. Day 1 nicotine free. Today I ditched the lozenges, I told myself time to take the plunge and yep no guts, no glory. I've been at this stage before and know what to expect, a bit of discomfort for a few days and then onwards and upwards. I have felt a bit stressed today if I'm really honest, but not rattled. I know that this is a phase that will pass and I'm proud to sa...

Hi all. Today is the first day of week 3. I was a bit sick during the week with mouth ulcers and body aches, I chalked that one down to the changes of quitting. I am honestly finding my quit relatively easy, I know all to well it's early days but I can honestly say I'm not suffering mind games or head battles as I'm done with smoking and know there is nothing to miss. I'm keen as to hit the next ...

Hello Happiness, we are all saddened to hear of your stroke, I think you said it was minor, I apologise if I have this wrong. I have been thinking of you every day and hope you make a full recovery soon. You have really gone above and beyond in the I can quit community to become a fantastic ambassador, cheerleader, friend and true inspiration to so many people on here. Sending you a massive hug r...

Hi all, just a small note to stay I'm on track. Early days but feeling very positive day 1 of week 2, wow the first week didn't drag as much as I thought it would. I have set myself targets and goals for the year, nothing unrealistic just focusing on where I've been before non smoking as appossed to smoking and more visits at the gym as appossed to less visits and which categories make me feel my...

Hi I have been a member for some time, but fell tragically off the wagon of my quit journey. I've finally managed to jump back on that horse and rejoin the rodeo lol. Day 3 for me, early days I know. I have been struggling to find the courage to have another crack and then one day, when I ran out I thought, really I think I have better things to do with my time and money than smoke, so I chose to...

Okay I fell completely off track and was struggling to face requitting. I kept attempting and would only last two days and kept giving in. Then I asked myself was smoking bringing me joy, of course it wasn't it was robbing my pocket, and I felt so ashamed. So I've stopped. Day 6 Today and happy to have found my way back to being a non smoker. I've been reading and following posts with envy. I kno...

Just touching base guys to let yous know that I'm staying strong, oh yes that little nicodemon has been whispering a couple of times in my ear but there has been no mind game, no contemplating, I'm sticking to my guns and it's NOPE. Even rewarded myself last night and splurged on two new pairs of good quality jeans on sale $440 worth for $200. I know it's a little premature but hey what the heck,...

Day 1 today, smell that fresh air this morning, it's lovely. I'm so glad it's a work day so I will not face temptation. For me it's the first few days that I'll feel fragile, then I'll be right. It's good to jump back on the horse and as Happiness says let's see this rodeos through. Happy Tuesday today everyone, I'm feeling hopeful for a Happy day😊
