Smoking - I QUIT

[Claw75]

by the way, in case anyone was trying to forget:

Today is "I QUIT" day

less than 12 hours to go! You all ready to be Free?

I'm sooo ready.  Every cigarette i smoke today I am analyzing.  The taste, the smell, my enjoyment of it.  It's all bull.  Less than 3 hours to go!!

don't forget with that very last cigarette to picture the poison seeping into your veins! 

knowing you are ready to give up is the very best start you can have.

I didn't manage to quit Friday night, so I'll join youse all today, if that's alright with you...

i gave up smoking a few years ago basically cause i was smoking 60 a day costing £100 a week or £5k a year money i now use to travel

normally when i travel to play poker i will buy a packet and give any left over and the lighter to alex the traffic warden at the airport

but in solidarity with those giving up i will no longer smoke on my travels


btw i dont think smoking is an addiction its just a state of mind if you really want to give up just dont buy any

Heh,

Hope you guys are enjoying being free, that's 31 mins now.

I'm guessing that the 9.52pm quit time was to do with the fact that this meant your last cigarette would have started at cowboy time. If so, then there's probably no better combination, cowboy adverts are probably what got tk started

Let us know how you are getting on.

Cheers,

Eoan

p.s. I am 4 weeks free today :-) Last smoked on the 9th September 2006.

Well done decider.  You are free already.  Well done mate.  So right now, 4 weeks in, the nicotine has left your body completely.  One a scale from 1 to 10, with 10 being VERY difficult, how did you find you first 3 weeks?

I gotta confess, I have just smoked my last cigarette EVER just now!  At 2pm today I bought my last pack of 20 ever and even contemplated just buying 10 but thought I was gonna chain smoke tonight.  In reality I sat down a few hours ago and watched 5 episodes of 24 in a row. The fifth one ended ten minutes ago.  I didn't even think about the quiting thing and have only had 3 all night.  Have just dumped the rest in the bin with my lighters. 

It feels good already!!

I quit in Jan, Chilli, but fell off when in Vegas during WSOP this summer. I saw my quack not so long ago and got on the Zyban program (google for it). I'm seeing the practice nurse again on the 19th and will get the mother of all b0llo0ckings if I'm not quit, so I have no choice !

Heh chilli, sounds like you've started off in the right frame of mind, superb.

Scale of 1-10? The first day was easy, I was hungover and felt terrible from the night before, so couldn't smoke 1/10.. 2nd day I'd say was another 1/10 as that's the day I decided to quit. Days 3 & 4 were tough at night, I'd say 5/10... Day 5 was good as I started to think of it in a new light, I wasn't losing anything. Still craving a bit, but not much and managing to drink and not smoke was good  2-4/10. Kept going in this light and then read the Allen Carr book on day 12, never looked back since 1/10 each day since.

anyone know how granddad is getting on

i think he is in the gutshot

[Nibbles]

It so easy, quitting. It really is. Just decide you are not going to go into a shop and buy fags. Sorted.
