Wow. You folks are the best in the world. With all the lovely wishes, it won,t be long until I,m back to normal (?) or as near as possible. Lol. Just to let you know that counting the time I spent in the hospital, it has now been 13 days since my last ciggy and after smoking for nearly 40 years, I hardly miss them at all. I would however like you all to buy shares in Bassett's sweet company because I,ve already munched my way through 2 bags of sherbert lemons and half a bag of liqourice allsorts and that,s just since yesterday. Lol Love you all. xx

Really hope you manage to keep off them Carol. Glad you're feeling better. I was off them for 6 weeks and started again the other day. Should know better as I've had a DVT in the past. Really have to try again! Christine

Keep it up Carol ,better to put on a bit of weight than keep on puffing [sic],your breathing will get better quickly ,you will start tasting your food again ,and you will find you have a lot more energy to boot.The weight you can worry about later ,one thing at a time i say. good luck.Fred.ptfg.

Carol, Well done with not smoking. I did it after 46 years and was really surprised how easy it was. I did 'comfort eat', and 5 years on still do it. However, after an initial weight gain I settled down and have maintained a steady weight. 2 stones more than it should be but what the heck, I'll worry about that tomorrow. Jean x.
