I have actually quit for good this time, i will definetly do it.
I have tried to quit before, but to be honest i never actually fully wanted to.
But this time, i have the willpower and i actually want to do it.
For these reasons, saving money, better health etc.
I'm finding it hard, but also alot easier than the last times i tried to quit.
I actually want to do it this time, its been 3 days without a ciggarette.
I'm using patches and gum and its really helping.
I'm not missing it, i just have withdrawal symptoms. Feel like i'm missing something in my hand.
It's good, but its kinda weird too.
Wish me luck, i'll keep you updated and such.

Well done
I gave up on Christmas eve just gone and know exactly what you mean about feeling your missing something. The problem I now have is that I am eating for England so that will have to be the next thing i address my weight. But upon saying that I feel so much better and healthier.
But well done to you and keep it up you will be feeling so much healthier very very soon
Good Luck and best wishes Kathryn xx
Keep going Fran - I know exactly what you are going through!
Well done Fran, don't forget to try to put the money aside you spent on fags to treat yourself and if you miss something to do with your hands could you not take up something like knitting or buy a Rubiks cube? (or is that me showing my age?lol)

Thanks for the support guys.
It means alot, it always does.
I feel a little better today, not craving a ciggarette that much.
Was really bad in the pub last night, but i beat it.
Its been four days now, probably seems like nothing to you.
But thats really good for me, normally it takes me like an hour or so before i'm back on them.
But i'm determined this time.
I will do it...for sure.
Thanks x
I'll keep you updated on my progress.

Well done...4 days is brilliant...stick with it,I take my hat of to you, it's a heck of an addiction to kick. Like Becky says, put some money aside and treat yourself
love

Well done you sound really determined and I think it's really cool that you managed the pub!
I agree put some money away and treat yourself, I opened an on line savings do dah and transfered what I would have spent on cigarettes to it twice a week so I could see the money build up - that really helped me!
Also I tried not to say I was 'giving up' that made me feel like I was missing out on something so I just said I had stopped, it sort of made me look at it in a different way.
Best of Luck!
Love Scrivo x
5th day.
Feeling good, feeling so much healthier.
And i'm actualy proud of myself for doing this =]
Wooo!
Thanks so much for all your support.
I can do it!

Oh well done, Fran. One day at a time, indeed one minute at a time. You have every right to be proud of yourself - it's horribly difficult to give up but one day you'll look back and realise that cigarettes just no longer figure in your life. And you'll also realise how smokers smell - and you won't smell like that any more. (I'm sorry, smokers - and I used to be one - but I can always tell when a smoker enters the room or gets on the bus, or whatever.)
