I've just come through my first cold since quitting and I must say that the cough has been nothing like previous ones, not even close. It used to always turn into a nasty chesty affair but not this time. That difference is a direct consequence of quitting so I reckon it's worth sharing as a morale booster to any newbies looking for positive vibes.

I used to think that a period of contemplation was necessary before quitting but I don't believe that now. I had compromised circulation in my leg and when I was told on the 22nd August 2019 that it was 10% worse than my 2018 test, I quit on the 23rd August. There's no point putting it off, it will just be harder to bin the damned things if you wait. I know you won't want to hear that probably but it's just the simple truth. My leg is improving each and every day now.

Same here - peripheral vascular disease that affected my right leg. For any lurkers reading this thread, it is getting better week by week since I quit.

I'm glad I quit at a nothing time of year in August. All the festive/special days and summer holidays etc. are tough times for brand new quitters. I'm so happy to have those temptations behind me. Xmas day was fine and so is today.
