Giving up….
It is about 80 hours since I last smoked a cigarette (it feels like 548028883 hours).
This is the longest that I have gone without smoking, ever! Smoking has been my ugly best friend that I could not dream of living without.
With only 80 hours under my belt (don’t I get a token or something for that?) it is still early days but I am feeling strong.
The cravings rear their ugly heads every now and then, and my brain starts to make up stories about how only one will not hurt. BUT a line an ex-smoker friend told me, before I quit smoking, keeps me away from that smoke……
“We are both drug addicts. You can never, ever for the rest of your life, have a smoke. End of story.”
PS. (he is also now my sponsor who gets SMSs at 7am in the morning from me that read: “I REALLY, really want a smoke!”) Thx, J for the support!
PSS. MA if you read this I don’t want to discuss my giving up smoking until I am on like day 39 or something, love you x.
Well done!!! Been there and done that, its hard but so worth it!!!
You’re a determined woman. If I could do it, so can you! It gets easier I promise. Go girl, I’m proud of you!
