This Saturday I will be 40 days clean and 10 days into NML. I wouldnt have thought it possible this time last year. Now that i have stopped smoking its amazing when I look around to see how many people actually still smoke its like non-smokers are a rare breed. I bet the tabaco companies love that. 

I still remember when I was a kid at the movies you could smoke and they actually had the adverts on before the film making smoking glamorous! 

I'm feeling really good i woke up the other morning enjoying being able to take a deep real breath and not coughing feels good. 

I have band practice tonight looking forward to that, stopping smoking has really benefited my vocal range and also strength of voice. I can reach the high notes again that I haven't hit without serious strain in months WOOHOO! 

Have a fantastic smoke free evening or day everyone

i am a musician and biker at heart. I have a gorgeous little daughter who I treasure with all my heart, she is one of the main reasons for me stopping smoking. i want to walk her down the isle one day. My wife is a smoker which is a challenge but she supports my quit. I had a really big scare on the 2nd Jan 2017 where I stopped breathing everytime I fell asleep and had bad chest pains throughout the night, this was the time to say enough. I am getting healthy again and i am back at gym and enjoying the benefits daily of stopping smoking. Onwards and upwards.
