Well done Dizzi. Keep it up.
When i was rushed to hospital in oct 2007 with pneumonia, i never smoked another ciagrette as i could hardly breathe. i dont miss them or desire them, the health scare was a wake up call to make a choice. I did only smoke about 8-10 a day but had been for 30 years.

I put on 2 stone in weight very quickly but feel so much better in myself and also did it straight away without any patches etc.

I maintain, we can all achieve whatever we want to if we want to!

Really pleased for you.
Take care now

One among all the good things about giving up is when someone asks you if you want a ciggie and you say no thanks I don't smoke.

Keep going, you're doing well.

Well done Gwen, you must feel better for it physically as well as financially. I can never understand how people on benefit especially afford to smoke, their kids must go short with the price of cigs as it is.

So glad I never really smoked much and stopped in my early twenties.

Well done Dizzi. It's not easy but the longer you go the less likely you are to start again.
I still fancy a ciggie occasionally and I gave up on September 1st 1983!!! How sad is that :-D Thing is I don't think I could afford to smoke now ;-)
