Well done Dave
I gave up smoking just over 3 yrs ago (a dance cruise was my incentive), and I know just how hard it can be. Keep up the good work
Well done Dave...am so pleased for ya! I attempted to give up at the beginning this year...did all the ground work before it ( reading up on it, things in place to replace the habit etc etc. Even had the desire to stop..I STILL want to stop)
Started again about 11 days later ...why??? Not because I wanted a cigarette..I felt as if I had put on about a stone overnight and was feeling so miserable about it My rationale brain told me this was not true and that smoking wouldn't assist weight loss but still I hit the cigarettes again. I didn't even want one but still I lit one up and that, as they say, was that.
I will try again..fingers crossed cos I hate being one of these smelly people that everyone on here is slagging off ( maybe that's why nobody dances with me )
Help with the following then please
How do I avoid the weight gain?
When does the continual thoughts about it all stop?
How long does the grumpiness stop?
help / advice appreciated
I've snipped out the bits that IMHO show to me that one day you will be successful in giving up entirely Angelique
The biggest hurdle in giving up, is to want to
As for the rest of your questions:
No set answers I'm afraid:How do I avoid the weight gain?
When does the continual thoughts about it all stop?
How long does the grumpiness stop?
I put on 3 stone (but then I needed to put something on anyway.
Very occassionaly, I still wonder what it would be like to just have one...
I'm known as a grumpy sod at times anyway, so the last one was quite irrelevant for me
Keep trying, and one day you will succeed
Just as an update. DTS HAS STARTED SMOKING AGAIN.... he needs help guys, could we all remind him what a dirty disgusting habit it really is.
He has told me, today when he finishes his packet he will quit again.
Anymore advice for him....?
That's a shame...
I think he probably already knows that by nowhe needs help guys, could we all remind him what a dirty disgusting habit it really is.
You have to want to give up to be able to give up.He has told me, today when he finishes his packet he will quit again.
Yes - those shoes don't go with that shirt!Anymore advice for him....?
If at first you don't succeed, then skydiving is not for you
Just keep trying Dave - one day it'll work

DTS, It doesn't have to be permanent. I plan on taking up smoking again when I'm a little old lady and on my way out. Can't wait!
As an X smoker I know it was probably one of the hardest things to do. It is a real addiction and good luck to you. I did it in my own way in my own time and it is worth it in the long run. I still have one trigger which sets me off but try to keep that at bay. It is a toughy and don't beat yourself up.
