So happy for you Abby xx

Not smoking today

MLMR obviously I have no advice to give you given my own quit history. I did want to say though that your posts probably help so many people. I know for sure they really help me. There's lots of people who seem to go along nicely but your heartfelt posts are wonderful for people. They show that quitting isn't always easy, that just because you want to quit doesn't mean it is the greatest feeling and that actually quitting can be hard. That is what some of us need to know. I hope you find some happiness but I hope you also know how many you are helping

Congratulations to a lovely lady X

Sounds like a great plan using fitness as stress relief. There is a thread somewhere on here where you can log what you have done and talk to other fitness friends. Such a shame you picked up those cigarettes at work but at least you are trying now to break that habit. I wish I had quit at your lovely young age. Thanks for answering my question. There was no malice in it you just reminded me of Redemption3 (they are another member). Rooting for you on your Day 1

Sazerac you are a very important part of this board and I will miss you. You do so much for us when we are new and when we fail or struggle. Of course I want you to enjoy your own life bit never forget how much you have made a difference to mine x x

Haven't really made a decision but looking at France, Spain and Portugal first.

During the winter I mentioned to Reci on a post that I would like to move to a country that's warm all the time. So I have actually decided to stop thinking about it and do something about it. Right now I am looking at some houses abroad and planning a week end to go and view some of them

I will Jo xx

Jo thank you for such a helpful post. I always remember Jillar saying don't smoke in places you usually smoke before you quit. I stopped smoking in the car, at my smoking spot in the garden and my work grounds. I didn't find new regular spots, I smoked in completely different spots each time so none became habitual. This really helped break associations before I'd even quit.

Linda I wake up in the morning and I say I'm not smoking today but if I want to smoke tomorrow then I definitely will. I think because I give myself the option it takes the pressure off a bit and obviously tomorrow never comes lol x

Thanks Doreen xxx

Good luck for 02 April. What possessed you as a non smoker to decide to have a cigarette when stressed. How did you deal with stress before that. Have you thought about how you will deal with stress when you quit. Theres plenty of support here so you won't be totally on your own. Are you Redemption3 with a name change?

Well I'm still going. Nobody is more surprised than me to be honest. I've not been happy at all but I've not once contemplated smoking. Today was Mother's Day and my children told me how proud they were of me not smoking x

Have never eaten steak x

01 March @Cbdave Not smoking today. I will decide on tomorrow when it gets here

Had a lovely day. I love being a mum x

Not going to smoke only for today

Not smoking only for today

It's not on the site @Cbdave it's on your phone itself. Jillars instructions are above.

I needed to hear that today. I'm avoiding the board because I'm like a fiery ball of anger. I tore all the buttons of my shirt today because when I was ironing it I noticed a little pen mark on the sleeve. I had a fight with a pitta bread yesterday because the lettuce kept falling out. I'm not going to smoke I just want to get past this part. It's like my quit has become groundhog day!! Now I'm annoyed at myself for not being happy I haven't lit up.

Not smoking just for today

Haven't smoked since my last pledge and I'm not smoking just for today

Thank you x

Doreen sending you and your husband lots of well wishes. Thank you for being here and for giving us your time x
