hey Bandito ... this will make you laugh ... it was upside down hahahaha ... I had to use the rotate thingy ... if hubby was home I wouldn't be having these problems, first time I've done this on my own !

you're all so kind ... thankyou for the confidence boost ... I will get back there, I'm already on my way just a little bit of fine tuning to do, the difference is this time I've got all my quit buddies behind me helping me to stay quit and happy in that lovely place ... thankyou x

Hi Armed, so please to meet you :)

Hi Scott welcome to our happy family :)

oooh yeah ... just the way I like it lol

oohhhh I'll probably be in bed :angry:

I did quite well then, I've only been trying all week hahaha ...

looks like it's hugs all round then :P

what a beautiful family ... just perfect :)

How about we have a thread just for before, during and after photo's... I can't get enough of looking at them ... and for people just starting out they could post progress photo's ...pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaase !

omg that's amazing, truly amazing ... can't get enough of these before and afters ... how did you lose the weight ???

Hi Doreen, Just curious, is this treatment aimed at getting Tony off the oxygen tank ??? x

If you're in a happy place now ...( which you should be because you have nearly a 9 month quit going on ) get someone to take a photo and use that ! or do a selfie lol

Hi Frez ... I've just lost it reading this, absolute gold ... lol

Hi Comrade, really pleased to meet you :)

Hey Juan ... how are you today ? you can do this , you've got all of us backing you x

This photo was taken last winter, I'd been off the smokes for about 7 months, I was doing a lot of exercise at the time and had managed for the first time in my life to run for 10kms ... I'd lost almost 10kgs as well, I really was in a very very happy place ... a couple of months later I was smoking again, and things generally went down hill after that ... I want to be back in that happy place and stay there for the rest of my life ... that's why I chose this photograph to remind me of where I want to stay (plus it's our favourite pub and I had a damn good drink that day hahaha ;) )

I've got a face .... taken me days to work this out ... I should have posted this in the celebrations board :lol: :lol: :lol:

I used an app called myfitnesspal and lost 22lbs last year ... I know a few people that have tried it and all agree it works ... bonus is you get to eat/drink your calories burnt through exercise !

I went for a 7k walk this morning with my 79 year old friend, we walk together twice a week ... we completed our walk today in 68 mins .. I might add that he has never smoked !

I don't think it makes any difference at all which method we use ... however, I feel a little be stupid asking this ... but what do you mean by vaping ???

wow you're a star ... I love before and afters ... it's my thing ... one of our boys has done something similar and every few weeks he gets all his latest measurements, fat loss, muscle gain etc ... we put aside an evening just to go through them and compare ... I just love it lol ...

I'm loving it here :)

I'm sure Bandito told me about Julie and the toothbrush dunking, and if my memory serves me correctly Julie ? said how she used to stab her parents smokes with pins ... I opted for the toothpick because I would have had to go upstairs to find a pin, and hubby had just gone to bed ... felt awful the next day because the holes were huge ... he never did say anything ... lol

Hi Nancy :)
