Hi, So I have been giving up smoking forever and a day and never actually doing it. Or giving up for the day and than starting again. However, I have been nicotine free for 9 days!!! My husband too, we have both gone cold turkey and I'm determined not to go back!! The money we're saving is amazing and I think this is my motivation as I could easily nip to the shop for 10!! Have you managed to give up?? How long for?? How did you do it and waht was your motivation for not starting again??

Good on you. I see you posted this 5 days ago, so fingers crossed that you are still smoke-free! I have been smoking for 30 years, and have lost count of the number of times I have tried to give up. I have managed to cut down though.

Hi, I'd like to say I'd resisted the temptation completely but I haven't. I have managed to stay smoke free most days with the odd fall. It seems to be mainly when I have had a drink so maybe I should give up alchol too!!! Thanks for the encouragement & I am still trying x MrsL x x

you should avoid the habbits that were asociated with smoking. Drinking, drinking cofee, etc. Avoid not give up on it :) Good luck !
