    Well its been nearly 9 months (gosh a pregnancy) since I quit the ciggies and I have to say I feel sooooo much better for it, I look better too.

    for those of you wanting to quit or struggling to quit - you CAN do it.
    the long term benefits like easier breathing, running around with the kiddies, nicer skin etc are terrific.

    i cannot honestly say I have noticed a financial difference as I didn't put the money aside specifically BUT in hindsight we have a much merrier Christmas and being able to splash out a little at other times is nice

    its great not having to go outside in all weathers for a ciggies
    its great being able to lounge in bed in the mornings without eventually having to get up cause you want a ciggie


    life is GOOD and managable without ciggies. I was worried how I'd cope generally without ciggies - now I wonder how I did cope WITH them!


    99.9% of me and the time I don't miss it at all, I am not going to lie - sometimes I feel like I could have one. but the smell and smoke now just choke me up

    just wanted to say to you - never stop trying to quit, it took me several attempts and failures over several years but after nearly 25yrs I did it and so can you. its too late for my teeth and bone density in my jaw holding my teeth - they HAVE suffered badly but its still worth it.

    Fantastic Pip everything you have said is so true. I quit 9 years ago after several failed attempts. Now I look at people with cigerettes in their hands and just say WHY? Especially in this day and age when you can't smoke anywhere

    Something to be very proud of!!! Hopefully il be able to a post like this soon, Picking my 'right time' if there is such a thing.
    Im the sure the financial side of things is a huge incentive, seeing as even the cheaper brands are nearly £6
