Joanne, Well done girl. Keep it up. You are over the worse. First three days horrendous, after that starts to get easier. Do reward yourself every week with some of the money you have saved. Jean x.

Joanne, well done. I started again about four days ago after being off them for nearly six weeks. Really dissappointed in myself. I know I have to stop before I get back up to my old 40 a day! Christine

OK girl - so you had a fag! so what? you haven't mugged anyone for the money to buy the fags I take it? - you haven't pinched it from anyone (the fag that is)? so.......No problem - just start again tomorrow - another day, another dollar. Good luck with your continued perserverance - you can do it you know, but you need to want to and I think you do. Jacqui (who is now off to the kitchen to have a fag - no I'm not a hypocrite, but the girl deserves to know that she is doing her best, and will do better tomorrow)

Sorry, but I dont agree, to GIVE UP, is to stop COMPLETELY. You MUST have the urge to give up fags.........no good saying tomorrow i Mite give up..............GIVE UP NOW> promise yourself, that once those you have, now, are gone, you will NEVER buy any more...........it will be hard, but you must REALLY WANT TO PACK UP.........I did it.......in 1978.....never smoked since.......... fumed a bit, but never smoked......LOL
