I plan on quiting Jan 1st...If I'm over this nasty bug (I suspect to be flu) I have.

Temp was up to 39.2 this morning but normal now so I'm hoping I'm getting over it!

No sure how I'm going to quit, will be cold turkey or an inhilator.

[sarah1726]

thanks, but i gave in but because im smoking im going to see if i can even try save 1 or 2 will try again tomorrow! i just need a good reason i think.like if i found out tomorrow i was pregnant id stop in a heartbeat, id have a reason.but i feel guilty, i smoke in my sittingroom nowhere else but OH doesnt smoke and he's getting 2nd hand smoke off me so i told him to ban me from smoking in the house lol xxxx

 

[mum2beagain]

it definalty helps if u stop smokin inside as its so cold the thought of going outside makes u wait longer then u are cutting down as u will only go out when u are desperate for a ciggy lol

 

[emsiee]

Have you ladies tried the electronic cig?

They are the best thing for trying to quit but I suppose you then gotta wean yourself off them...Ive just bought one after using patches, gum, tablets, inhalator etc...and Ive gotta say, its the best quitting device Ive had...

I got mine from here...

https://www.rokuniversal.co.uk/

They are pricey at £40 but once you got it, you just need the liquid which you can get from amazon which range from £2,50 - £8.00

 

[sarah1726]

well done i caved in on day 4 and had 2 smokes last night but thats coz me and dh shared a bottle of wine with dinner so i "needed" a fag lol back to none today though x

Just wanted to add (for those not pregnant as I don't think you can take them pregnant) But I smoked for over 15yrs and was constantly trying to give up and never succeeded. I finally used Champix from my GP and I haven't smoked for, well it will be 2 yrs this June. I used to be able to smoke over 30 a day and I loved smoking, the social side of it I still miss but I still cant believe how easy it was to stop when taking these tablets. You still smoke and take the tablets and after about 4 days you realise you're not really smoking half as much as before. I went from 30 to 4 in 4 days and then I just stopped. Hope this info helps and good luck to you all

Hi ladies, I thought I would reignite this thread lol!

I stopped smoking yesterday, I quit with both my pregnancies in a heartbeat but stupidly started again after they were born. I'm really determined which I think is a good starting point, my OH has been nagging me about it for months but I actually feel like I want to do it for me now, and my kids of course.

I'm going cold turkey, no gum or anything, I only smoked about 4 a day so I don't think withdrawals should be that bad.
