Need your help - from tomorrow...........(and my 'diary')

[Gwenick]

as I've decided it's now or never to quit smoking . Main motivation isn't so much 'health' related (although obviosuly that does play a big part) but also just can't AFFORD to keep buying them, usualy only have a few each day - but recently been having more and it's costing me a fortune.

So - need your help and motivation PLEASE

PS - this will also become my diary for recording how it's going.

you forgot to add...that you dh doesnt know you smoke and you nearly had a heart attack when you thought someone was behind the curtain and it was a gollywog!!

good luck, will keep an eye on your thread to see how you are getting on....

...just think...no more having to sneak around,
no more going out in the cold
no more worrying about going to the shop cos you are down to your last fag
no more smelling of fags
etc etc

Good on you, Gwenick! think of something lovely you can save up for - not necessarily frivolous - just something you don't buy, cos you've wanted the money for fags

Good on you, Gwenick. Stock up on things to do with your hands

Remember...when you get a craving...clean your teeth!

Wayheyyyyyyyy nice one Gwen!!! You KNOW you have my full support!

SJ xx

hunker - that one will have to wait until Thursday - the cleaning teeth one - as we're nearly out of toothpaste and won't be getting the shopping until then

Run round the garden then

gwenick...it was you with the curtain incident wasnt it? or was it strawberrysally?

bubbly - I'm saying nothing

i can always search the archives

found it...shall i urm...copy and paste it on here...shall i, shall i....hehehe

okay i wont,
good luck with no smoking,...personally i make a standard rule not to tell anyone cos then if you couldnt do it, you dont get a lecture or the 'i thought you gave up smoking?'

Good luck gwenick

oh go bubbly - post it - it'll give us all a good laugh before bed

waves fag at gwenick

I'm quitting tomorrow Lou

I'll have my last one before bed - and that will be it.

end of an era gwen

end of 'another' era you mean LOL

I quit when I was 4 months pg with DS1 - started again when he was 6 months old

quit the day after I found out I was pg with DS2 - started again when he was 5 weeks old

i gave up fro 12 years once

Cor, Lou - why did you start again?

Actually, the longest I've not smoked for is 12 years...from birth to 12 And it's been seven since I stopped.

just wanted to, can't think of any other reason really, i can take it or leave it still though, over a year later

I always could too, Lou - I don't think I was ever truly 'addicted' as I gave up very easily too, despite smoking vast forests of the bloody things.

it's worse of course if i have a drink, but today i didnt have one til 3pm, yesterday 5pm. Can get through loads on a night out though

lucky cow! HM

When DH knew I was smoking (he thought I quit last August) he once went to Tesco for me at midnight to buy cigarettes as I was so desperate for one it was driving up the wall (and he always hated me smoking too!)

I used to take 40 on a night out and wonder if it was enough sometimes

ikwym!
