stop smoking | update #8

Today is 18th December & im pretty upset! The most useful tool in my stop smoking journey has been my NHS smokefree iPhone app. BUT my iPhone went to Apple heaven last week & I lost all my apps eek! Not impressed at all and I had to grab the cheapest contract phone quickly so I ended up with the Samsung Galaxy S3. It's okay but jee whizz I miss my iPhone!

But anyway! My point is that I lost my smokefree app which sucks as I used it so much. So, I have no idea how much money I've saved or how long exactly I've given up for. But I do know one thing: it's DAY 74!!!

Do you know what this means?! Over Christmas I would have given up for over 80 days. I'm incredibly happy with this!

Things are great in this department. Cravings are a minimum although don't be disillusioned; I DO still get them! My chest is feeling heaps better-not tight at all and I'm feeling fresher than ever!
So it's all good. I'm going to end this post here as there is not much to say other than I'm still a non-smoker ;)

I've got loads of health related plans for the new year!

stoptober! | update #6

Hello, sorry I've been AWOL for a while!

Well here is a little update & I'm GOIG to stop calling it 'stoptober' as that, I fact has finished. And did I complete it? HELL YES! I completed the challenge and state smoke free for 28 days and I'm so proud of that!

I am currently on day 38, not on Champix and doing well. 9 days ago whilst I was on a mini break to Kinston, I kept forgetting to take my Champix tablets so I just decided to stop. It was probably a silly thing to do as I have noticed a difference, my cravings are slightly stronger but I was just sick to death of feeling nauseous and tired ALLLL the time. The tiredness was crazy. But I've since had a stop smokin appointment with Georgie and she says there is nothing wrong with stopping Champix, just to keep going doing so well!

So all is well. I am still a NON-SMOKER, and happy about it!
