    When I was back in the UK I went ot the GP and have ben planning for "going smokefree" as they now call it.

    I've failed so many times before but I'm feeling good this time as I have some literature from the NHS and it is helping. I usually replapse after 3 days, I'm only on day 2now :)

    The literature is helping as it talks about health, triggers and planning. I planned this date a month ago and I've been working working towards it. But I really don't know if I will last long...

    Funny this thread just got bumped up, I'm on Day 1 today. Quit cold turkey back in '09 and made it for 7 months so I'm gonna give it another shot. If anything to save money and be able to sing better,....not to mention health/breathing better.

    1st of January. Time for a big BUMP on this thread :lol:

    I quit at Xmas. Invested some money I was given in a month of nicotene patches (which would be free if I lived in the UK :evil: ) and am on the smoking wagon again. Day 5, feeling good.

    Wow, first time I've seen this thread, good luck to you all. I used to smoke for years and haven't had one for about 6-7 years now. Feel sooooooooooooo much better, food tastes better and I am able to do more physically. So worth it folks, keep it up! ;)
