So the no smoking begins

[Cobster]

As my New Years resolution I wanted to give up smoking , said id do it for many years but this time around I've done it.

To be honest when I opened my eyes this morning the first thing I thought was why did I need to open my big mouth but much to my surprise 5 mins after that my 2 little one bring me in breakfast in bed , I asked what is this for and there reply was daddy cos you ain't smoking anymore .

From that point I haven't really found it that hard seeing as it means so much to them .

Do more gaming @Cobster keep your hands busy. The PS4 could soon be bringing the kitchen here to a halt. By the time we hit Ninja week thire may be tumbleweeds in thire .

One week down WELL DONE the first of many more for you and your family Smoke free .

The kids I bet thay are so proud and worrying less about Dad . You keep it up every minate , hour , is time added on to YOUR life to be around to be thire for them .

I tell you what , I haven't been a member long here but I'm already started to love this place .

You really are a super bunch.

@Scary Hair thanks for the lovely words and yeah the ps4 has been getting used abit more by me than usual .

Need to start getting into the online play , never really been a fan but on the other hand I've never really tried .

@Cobster

I quite smoking 5 1/2 years ago, didn't have any patches, etc just stopped. I'm a firm believer that if you want to stop and truly mean it, then you just stop. Certainly don't miss it that's for sure.

All the best to you @Cobster it does get easier. The first month is the hardest, get past that and it's easy

 

[Cobster]

This is the approach I've taken mate .least this way I ain't hooked on something else .

Well done on the 5 yes tho pal

 

[cooey]

Thanks mate. Keep us updated on how you get on.

All I will say is, it gets easier as time passes and you'll get to the stage and think "Why did I start smoking in the first place??"

 

[Aw 83]

Keep it Cobster hope you do well in quiting and wishing you the best of luck on this journey... [emoji41]

Just over 2 weeks into this now . Feeling pretty different now aswell .

My taste , smell and fitness have all improved and have not found it as hard as I thought , even tho I've had a couple real hard days I've managed to get through them.

I'll be honest tho at the moment I do seem to miss it with certain things , one thing I don't miss is having to go out in the garden to have one in this weather

Slowly but surely I'm getting there .
