More than a month now since I quit smoking

Tania Admin

It's been 10 days since I quit smoking,,already my food tastes better, my sense of smell has improved (though now some people smell alot worse lol), and I'm not self conscious of me smelling like smoke, I absolutely hated the smell of it on me and in my hair, I'm looking forward to all the other benefits from quitting too, health wise and financially..

I am feeling rather proud of myself and just felt like sharing it.

Re: 10 days since I quit smoking

I am a ex-smoker too Smiley It is well and truly worth it
You may have to get a competition going with our other fave new ex-smoker a little competition with a good prize at the end can be a very helpful adjunct to your will power Or maybe more important wont power

Re: 10 days since I quit smoking

I have quit before, for 2 years, then started again 2 years ago, (I know stupid me :BangHead: ),,this time it's for good...

My spunky spunky husband to be doesn't smoke either.

Another part of the motivation being my children:

A: I don't want them to smoke (they aren't passive smokers either as I have never smoked indoors)

B: They keep repeating they don't want to watch me die slowly and have to make the decision when to turn the machine off. (That really
pulls on the heart strings).


And thank-you so much for your support, it's a big help xo :)

Re: 10 days since I quit smoking

It is good to see the attitude to smoking in medical circles has changed My youngest Aunt is in her 60's though never smoked
But she still talks of having a check up regarding her soon to be born daughter And right long side her was a expectant mother & father
puffing away and ashtrays were provided for their convenience

Yep! Filthy habit which should have gone the way of the dinosaurs a long time ago.

Keep it up, Tania - you will probably get more bookings if you don't smell like an ashtray too.

Re: 10 days since I quit smoking

It's been 15 days now and no cravings at all (Champix helped that), and I don't get the urge when I'm around other smokers either. The only side affect I am getting with the Champix is really bizarre dreams. Never again am I going to smoke. :)

....am on Champix too and have been "clean" for 21 days.... :) .....I, too, have had some bizarre (and at times vivid) dreams.....unlike you, I still have the odd urge to light up but have resisted it. As an aside, being bored one night I worked out that if I don't smoke, the savings mean I could see a W/L every 3 weeks or fly to Europe once a year in business class.....hmmmmm, decisions....lol... :)

Or go to Europe every other year with a few of your favourite working ladies Sadly though they may have to fly Economy Though you could lash out and get Exit row seats

Re: 10 days since I quit smoking

Is it a rumor that you gain weight when you quit smoking? You don't seem to have gained any. Are you on some kind of exercise regime now as well?

Tania Admin

Re: 10 days since I quit smoking

Hmmm, perhaps some people do gain weight when they quit smoking, I'm guessing it's because they eat to fill the void, my weight has stayed the same.
But no I haven't changed my exercise regime, not yet, though I do think some toning will be in order seeing as my wedding is fast approaching.
