Hope all is well beauty!! Both with you and the baby. x Massive congrats on your 6 months!!

Brilliant news re wife!! Good to see you back and NOPE ing through the craves Mason. x

Thank you. Sorry bout your gang too. x

That's sad, not one of these fu*kers who surround me checked on me today, not boyfriend, sisters, either parent (in fact the mother I live with is sulking about some supposed faux pas or other as she's quiet). What a bunch of fuc*ing tossers surround me at times. Never ever do I leave someone alone. Shock of the fu*king century, I did it supported by you guys (big thanks) and not a friend or family in site - must still look invincible or be surrounded with arseholes!

added 30 mins of walking and some heavy duty gardening to the exercise. Gem, did your legs feel tight, I felt like I needed to "walk it off" thus going for a walk. x

BOOM!!! SOOOOO over enthused for you Sammie!! Excellent job and look at you just havin a brilliant quit!! The bury of Ayles is producing some strong quitters :) Massive congrats to you Sam, all your own commitment levels and work. Great, inspirational quit to share with you. x

nah orange is poop, cranberry is wee :) Oh to be a parent and have this oh so useful information stored internally :) Anyway - if you've done away with the patch then this totally explains the tiredness!! At the risk of upsetting the "fruit cart" the acids in cranberry are marginally higher than other juices, so it will speed up the removal of nicotine by a few hours over any other juice - so I say drink one you like! Sips, every couple of hours will ease that tiredness right off. xx

Juice gets rid of the nicotine in your system quicker and also helped to manage blood sugar levels which dip for a few days - cranberry is the "best" juice (something to do with acidity) but any fruit juice will work. It's why I asked if you were using the patch. The tiredness you describe sounds like a blood sugar dip but you shouldn't get that on the patch (unless you were a real heavy smoker maybe...). Weight, tempting but pointless to get hung up. Compensate with healthy snacks or go for a walk more often. It's only the eating more that puts weight on. x

Me either Becca and yet here I am reading too. Healthy eating here we come :)

Today is the 7th day, one week today :)

I thought you were 7 day today but calender says tomoz! Go Sam!!

No I totally get the nice underwear thing. A gal can totally feel she's got her sh*t together if bra and panties match or were purchased at a nice establishment :)

Ah weight, yeah I put on a few pounds but that's because I ate shed loads of food. I am dieting and exercising it off now and actually really lovin exercise for the first time in years. It doesn't feel like a chore as a non smoker, I look forward to it. So no real issue, deal with the quit, then with the weight. I will be nicotine free and back to the same weight within 6 months of stopping - not a problem. x

To add a friend simply go into their name and click near the top add as a friend. You can absolutely drive with brain fog, it's mental, not physical. Do watch your concentration levels generally though. Think something in a cigarette surpressed some thirst reflex. No idea why and I don't know if anyone else said but I never drank water as a smoker, now I drink loads most days and really feel dehydrated quickly if I don't. Not something I ever noticed before. Phrasing to friends, you can try I would appreciate help not smoking around me - but to be honest most smokers get the hump and take it like some personal slight...I went really offensive quite quickly complete with tutting and frantic hand waving haha... maybe you'll be nicer though :)

You qualify now after a year? Great news!

That's ok, you got nothing but time to understand how this works for you. Did you go with using the patch in the end? x

you guys rock!

oh my goodness, how do you guys remember all these!! I always forget the punchline or a crucial bit!

I love this summary...go Sarah!! Lol at the picky, good girl!
