  1. It is to be expected that I will put on weight, but it is really getting me down. I have gained 3kg in just five weeks. I guess we have had some grief to deal with too because of the death of my father-in-law and this week we have a guest so I am eating bigger meals than usual. But still. I just wanted to moan out loud! No replies needed!
  2. bra without using a E, name a chinese dish
  3. I have my friend's husband staying with us at the moment. He is a smoker. My house smells so much even though he only smokes outside. I went into his bedroom earlier to make his bed and vacuum and the smell is awful just from his clothes that are in there. Did I used to smell like that? My word!!!
  4. Honey With using an 'I' name a spice you would use in a curry......
  5. I know. Its like food. If they were there I would smoke them. Now my food problem is becoming a problem (even though it wasn't for first couple of weeks!!!). I know, I know, it is better than smoking, but as I am already overweight, its annoying! I am craving biscuits, cheese and bread like never before!
  6. I bought packets of ten in the UK. When i moved to France, where they don't sell tens, I started smoking more - twice as much infact. Stupid idea really, although obviously giving up is the best option...

  10. "Ole ole - ole ole....feelin' hot hot hot'. They hitched their gowns above their knees and......
  11. Thing is I would never smoke inside a building, not even in my own house. Maybe I am the only considerate ex-smoker in the world!! :P Yes, their employer paid a security deposit. Am trying to figure out how to charge something. Maybe a deep cleaning fee to cover washing the curtains and settee covers. It would have been so difficult had I had other guests arriving today because the smell is still quite obvious now. And we go to UK tomorrow for my father-in-laws funeral so I can't even leave the windows open anymore. :angry: What a cr*p day
  12. And no, don't worry, I didn't succumb to the evil tobacco sticks! We rent two holiday cottages. There is a strict non-smoking policy inside the accommodation which is made very clear. There are ashtrays in the garden for anyone who does want to smoke.... Last week had a call from a company who have workmen working at the local campsite and needed accommodation. 'Fantastic' I thought, a bit of a money earner, so I warmly welcomed them into one of our cottages. First night the electric tripped so I went down to put it back on at their request - when I went in the smell of cigarettes was quite overpowering. It is pretty obvious they had been hanging out the windows smoking. As I left, I politely reminded them that smoking was not permitted inside - at which point they kept going on and on about how they only smoked electronic cigarettes. I knew it wasn't true, but figured my casual friendly comment would do the trick. Over the course of this week I have found their behaviour rather odd. When they have been there, all the windows, doors and curtains have been shut. They even covered a tiny decorative window with a cushion. ??? Today they left. I went in to clean the place and the smell of stale smoke was very evident. I was fuming......almost as much as a cigarette. I emailed their employer and told them the problem - they apologised profusely. Half an hour later the ringleader returned in his car - I told them the problem, at which point he vehemently denied they had smoked inside - said I must be able to smell the electronic cigarettes...Yeah right. I said I had seen them smoking cigarettes (which I had) and he still bloody denied it, and started shouting at me, telling me I was a joke. By the end of it he had me in tears and I had to ask him to leave. It was quite a scary experience (my other half conveniently wasn't around). I am now in a quandry about what to do. I am within my rights to charge them, but I don't know how. The fabrics don't really smell it is just the air - even though the windows and doors have been open all day the stale smell is still there....it really is horrible. grrrrrr. I am so ******** angry. Can't believe cigarettes are the reason why! Excuse my rant, but I now feel a bit better for getting it off my chest. And breeeeeeaaaaathe! :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry:

  14. Also, maybe you are becoming overly conscious of your breathing due to quit anxiety? If you fixate on anything it will become a problem. But if in doubt, see your doctor.

  24. Today I was talking to my cat in the kitchen. And as he wasn't answering back, I started answering back for him in a silly voice. This went on for ten minutes if not longer. Is this something to be worried about, and a known side effect of quitting smoking? :help:
  25. I'm in the mood for dancing (The Nolans) What sort of people do you like?

About us

QuitTrain®, a quit smoking support community, was created by former smokers who have a deep desire to help people quit smoking and to help keep those quits intact.  This place should be a safe haven to escape the daily grind and focus on protecting our quits.  We don't believe that there is a "one size fits all" approach when it comes to quitting smoking.  Each of us has our own unique set of circumstances which contributes to how we go about quitting and more importantly, how we keep our quits.
