Dey 41

I have completely lost track of days or where I am in the whole quiting process so I am very grateful that I set up those clocks.

Today is day 41 and day 32 off the smokes. Thats a month!! I dont mean to sound stupid but there was a time (about a month ago) where I couldnt last an hour without a smoke so a month not smoking is great ... another milestone.

Tquit is at 100 days, fair play to you man I am chasing your tail and will see you at the pub ;) Atleast you can rest easy with political race in the UK is at a rest for now. Personally I love that time. Its the one time that politicians need you and the one time you can abuse them and theres nothing they can do about it heh heh!!

Poet and Bestus still going strong, it seems we are all going cold turkey. Good to see no one has become dependent on this wonder drug. Poet is only a few weeks behind me and I can assure you the difference a few weeks will make. I have had bad days full of stress and misery and anxiety and just crap but I havent thought God I really need a cigerette right now. The want to solve a problem with a smoke just isnt there. So stick with it guys, you are doing very well.


If anyone ever sees me with a smoke in my hand, you have full permission to shoot me.

Until next time, a very smoke free Zoe

Day 34

Hey folks

Im starting to loose track of time now. Not so much of a count up anymore. I think my body has given up any hope of smoking again although yesterday was just like smoking, how i got through it I do not know.

Anyway the thingie says 34 days and 25 days not smoking so Ill go with that!!

I have a confession to make. I have stopped taking champix. At first I just sort of forgot and then before I knew I was three days off of them so I just thought feck it I will say off. I am now cold turkey ha ha.

Im feeling grand, still got the dull pain thing going on but hey lifes a pain. However yesterday was pure pain. I went to visit a friend, a smoker friend. I ended up sitting in a closed room while this person chain smoked for a few hours and the smoke filled the room. I told them I didnt mind as I dont want to be one of those quitters but I could actually feel the second hand smoke going up my nostrils and hitting the back of my throat. It was actually like I was smoking. I had to go for fresh air. But I came out the other side still not smoking. Craving a small bit today actually. But no going back now!!
