[ALY]

Weel done hun

 

[leeanne]

Good luck ladies! I, unfortunately, have this bad habit too. I was going to quit on my 40th birthday but things are too stressful atm. It's a tough one to quit and you must want to quit to make it work.

Iv even got my own money box for when i stop so that wat ever i used to spend on cigs il put it in their so i can buy something nice for myself

 

[leedsforever]

Hey girls...

yesterday i woke up with a horrible throat feeling with the initial thought "urgh cigarettes" but then I remembered I didnt smoke the day before

I didnt smoke yesterday at work either, and didnt really crave one... but the hard part is when my sister returns of her hol and she goes out for a smoke

Day 3- also sucessful, been kept busy with my police training...

Proud of myself

 

[ablaze]

well done guys! you can keep doin it

 

[ALY]

WELL DONE KERRY
Av cut down to 5 a day

 

[leedsforever]

thats great Aly....

day 4- successful although had a craving for it this evening... its gone now, think it would just make me light headed and woozy!

I had to do some running today and I found it quite tough, wished I had never smoked a cigarette before...

I still cant get it out my head that im NEVER smoking again.... its weird!!
