Good for you Erratic! I packed in when I stopped drinking. Had been a full time smoker to a smoking when drinking smoker. I feels great now to be a non-smoker and the extra money too it such a bonus. Best of luck to you. Gabe x

Great job ladyblue i wish to make it to 3 months and beyond also.
Thanks opivotal x

How i am feeling is not to bad, my smell is getting stronger and also my taste. Breathing is getting little better which i am sure will improve even further. I still have to put money away for motivation which is helping. I have to pick up my weeks worth of patches today so looking forward to that.

keep up the great work ladyblue x

so day 7 today x

Congrats on a week Erratic!

If you get some time check out the timetable on the effects of quitting. You'll be pretty amazed at how the healing that occurs is an ongoing thing. Even after the time I've had I can still tell that things are changing for the better. In my lungs and in my general overall health.

Keep it going!
