    2 days for me so far... anybody a quivering mess yet?

    It's actually not that hard for me to resist the temptation to smoke, I just need to make sure I don't get stressed about something and go a buy a packet!

    Let me know how you're getting on!

    Yes you have been good, Big_Al well done! I havent seen him have one cig, and he will usually have a whole packet in my presence. I do not smoke, so u can imagine what it would normally be like.

    Carry on xx

    Ahh, that's a shame... I'm finding it easier every day. How's everyone else coping (if you still are that is!)?

    I decided to stop around new year, promised myself one a day from new year until my birthday.. and after that.. none..

    I actually had my last cigarette on the 3rd, 2 days before my birthday, and am now 16 days without a cigarette.. so far.. no ill effects, no cravings...

    most of my friends smoke, so visiting them may be almost helping due to passive smoke lowering nicotene cravings.. who knows...
