im right with you on this one lads.

Going to the doc's tomorrow for some help and advice.

Been smoking for 20 years but have over the last year cut down to 5 a day.

Sick of smelling like an ashtray, i just hate giving me kids a kiss and cuddle smelling of smoke and just finished  with me girlfriend - so i'm thinking out with the old in with the new  :daumenhoch:

I've set April the 8th as the day i start - birthdays on the 7th so that will be me last binge

Kids are at there mothers for 2 weeks - they go on the 8th to - so it seems a good time to have a go.

Wont be able to shout at the kids and hope to be over the worse by time they are back.

Just leaves me and the Cat "gucci" mind you he is deaf as a nail so i can shout at him all day long  :LolLolLolLol:

Wish me luck guys - gonna be hard not having a smoke with a beer or a nice glass of vino - mind you im thinking the worse one will be 1st thing in the morning with me coffee.

Good luck to all of us  :daumenhoch:

I've said this before but will say it again. The nicotine craving only lasts 2 days. All the patch stuff is bo-lax. I don ethe Niquitin brochures when they first came out and it said in there that the body only craves nicotine for 48 hours. Once you get past that stage the body isn't demanding it anymore. The hard part is giving up the habit of having a ciggy with a beer or when you have your morning coffee.

Stick with it lads  :daumenhoch:

I gave up 2 years & 2 1/2 months ago & it is the best thing not having to rely on fags, for me that was the worst thing, needing one & now Im free of them & I really can't ever see me smoking again & I don't miss it one bit  8)

I think the first four days was the worst, after that you just get used to it, I used the chewing gum, which tastes fooking bad but it works.

You don't need to be wished good luck, if you really don't want to smoke, you won't  :daumenhoch:

But good luck anyway

Come April 1st it will be 2 years for me .  ::)

Stick with it .... it does get easier and it is worth it in the end.  :4_17_5:

20 years of being the Marlboro man was hard to give up .......... but that's what my little girl wanted for her birthday so thats what she got.  :smitten:
