Well done Kaz in cracking the first week :thumbup:

I agree with Jim (Beamish) if you can have a drink without smoking that's a good sign, it must mean you're determined to give up.

6 weeks is breaking point tbh. you will think, i'll just have one, then you end up smoking more than you did before!
happened to me a few times.
insurers dont class you as a non smoker until you have packed up for years tho.
just out of curiosity, go the docs and ask them to do a carbon monoxide test on you, you should be bob on by now???
i was wheezing like a pig but after 2 weeks i could run up flights of stairs again :)

good luck anyway - it's worth the effort! :clap:

Well done kaz seriously!!!

I have given up since 23/12/2009 since my son Harley was born but i have cheated alittle bit though as i use champix that the docs gave me and the only reason i took it as i get my perscriptions free as i have type 1 diabetes.

Now i think smoking is horrible i had one earlier to see what it was like lol just made my mouth taste funny and really pissed off my mrs lol

But fair play i dont think i could have done it without the tablets to be fair but it matters not how you give up its the fact you have so keep it up!!

Keep going Girl,
you can't weaken now. It's good you can be in a close space with a smoker and it's not bothering you.
I've never wanted to be one of those "holier than thou" smokers who can't stand having smokers around them. Fortunately other smoker don't bother me at all. Which is a good thing, cause most of me mates smoke and I'd be lonely without them :lol:
