It has been four weeks today for me. It has been a bit of a hard day today craving wise. Yesterday, I thought I was doing well and told myself that I am going to start weaning myself off the Nicotine gum. I set myself a target of just having seven pieces today and so far at 16:48 I have had five pieces. So, I have two pieces left. It is the same old thing, you always want what you can't have. If I have my next one at seven and the last at nine, I am sure I will be fine with that until tomorrow. How about you? How are you doing? Can you imagine how much money would come out of the government pay packet if we all just stopped smoking at the same time? The amount of tax they put on ciggies, the people in parliament would have the shock of their lives wouldn't they. Funny! I think the government gets enough money out of me, I am not going to let them take more by taking the tax out the cigarettes I (used to ) buy and watch me kill myself in the process with their poisonous cancer sticks. Just for that reason I am glad I quit. I can't believe how much money I use to spend on them. I may as well take about £300 p/m and set fire to it. It's hard though, isn't it? All said and done, it is hard. I don't know who is reading this if anyone, but I do know in just talking to you it is helping. What are your reasons for quitting smoking? Mine are:
The list goes on and on. I have just had my nails done for the first time in months with the money that I would have spent on cigarettes. That feels nice. I would love to hear from you, if you are quitting smoking and need a friendly ear to listen to you. You are welcome to respond to this blog. Maybe we can support each other in our quest to quit smoking.
