Hey Laura, I was thinking about cigarettes CONSTANTLY at the beginning... I just chose not to act on it... It does get easier, and easier. You can do this, I just know it! Maybe you can get a ticker, add a profile picture, and really get in the swing of posting regularly - it really does help!!

Yep, I mean, NOPE :)

Hey, yourself ;)

Massive congratulations on one month of freedom!!!! I hope that you do something wonderful to celebrate!! Look forward to hearing how great you are doing ;)

Nat, I am so happy to see this! I agree, that you have rocked this from the very first day, and you have built a really strong quit. I have no doubt that other newbies will see your journey, and you will inspire them, too. I think the first week is really hard, and you should go out and really treat yourself to something nice today - you've earned it! (((Natalie)))

I'll meet you there, but I'll swim - it's cheaper... Come on Sue, I'll do it!

Hi Laura, great to have you back with us! A good, strong quit really needs a good, strong mindset, so it's great that you feel that you have that now. Please, stay close to the board, and post as much as you can! We will be here to support you!!!!!!

Wow, that bar sounds fantastic!! Bit cold, but I'd love to give it a go, just for the experience!! It's good to have you back though :p

Wow Jackie, it's so 'you' - I really, really love it! You must be over the moon with it!!!!

Thanks guys! This ain't her first rodeo, so I'm hoping to help her as much as I can...!

Ooh, Jackie's here... DD, please help her, because I want to see the new tat ! :)

YAY, Renee's back! :wub: I'm glad you had such a great time, and I hope you've got some pictures of this trip somewhere... :P Great to 'see' you again. Who says that intetnet friendships aren't real?! ;)

LOL :lol2:

I was about to ask you if you used to be a nurse or something, until I got to the part that said 'even if you, like me, have no medical training'... And you say that you are not some sort of superhero? I disagree wholeheartedly... I think you are amazing :) I am glad that (with your help), your mother is recovering nicely. I am sure that it is similar here, with pateints not getting the care that the actually require. I was also not aware of the cause of pneumonia, nor the simple, yet effective, preventative measure you can take to avoid it. So, thank you - I might well need that information someday :) I hope your journey home is a safe one, and thank you for keeping us up-to-date on the situation!

Ceri, my sister-in-law, popped round my house on Sunday evening, and when she reached for her pack of cigarettes, she pulled one out and said 'this is my last cigarette'. I asked her, did she mean the last cigarette in the packet, or 'the' last cigarette - she told me that she was quitting, and this was the last one ever. Well, she poped over last night, too, and she told us that she hadn't smoked all day (Monday), and that her work colleague (and smoking buddy) has told her that she will quit too. So, now she has a quit buddy, too :) Ceri, if you are reading, CONGRATULATIONS!! I hope that all my subtle hints I've dropped for the last 10 months have helped, even if only a little ;)

Jackie, sounds like you are a great mum :) Your son will do all right, because he was brouhgt up right, by a good mother :wub:

Chrys, you sound like a great daughter - your mother is very lucky to have you :wub: Take care, and speak soon!

Very nice video, thanks Lisa :)

Wendy - 2 weeks today! Congratulations! I hope that you are enjoying your freedom, and your new bike! I hope that your husband is doing well, too :) Look forward to hearing from you, and I'm so happy that you are doing this with us! CONGRATULATIONS!!!

Funny, I was just thinking about Sue this morning... Please, let us know how you are doing! Only 20 days until the 'big day' ;)

You did great Nat - proud of you!!! (((Natalie)))

Thanks Dors!! No chemicals for me today!! NOPE

Even better, I think Nat is on the 6th day at the moment... So tomorrow would be day 7 ! :d :d
