Wow 234 days 7020 cigarettes not smoked ! I never thought I would get this far when I started I am so chuffed with myself. I remember the first few weeks were hard really hard but having the attitude of this is it i have had enough of smoking pulled me through. This is something my wife and i were discussing as we were talking about her quitting but she is not ready to quit. A big bonus is the setting your quit date on this site as it allows you to mentally prepare yourself and get that attitude of i've had enough in your head. Your mind is such a potent thing, this is the problem in the beginning of your quit is your smokers brain is so hardwired to convincing you you can't do it, you will feel terrible nah you can't do it......TWADDLE you can and will if you use your prep time to think about why you are quitting, talk to yourself remind yourself all the time get that mind ready and it will be a great weapon in your quit.

Have a super 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.
