Default 18 Months Today :)

Just wanted to post that its now been 18 months since my last ciggy. I def cant believe that i managed it. Do i think about them, no not really, do i miss them no not really.

Im having an op next week so i am grateful that i dont have the wheezing etc that i used to have when having a major op. I will keep you all informed though.

To all the newbies GOOD LUCK it CAN BE DONE

My Stats are...........

I have been quit for 1 Year, 6 Months, 29 minutes and 10 seconds (548 days) 18 Months.

I have saved £2,786.67 by not smoking 9,864 cigarettes.

I have saved 1 Month, 3 Days and 6 hours of my life.

My Quit Date: 24/10/2010

If you're smoking today, it's because you've chosen to smoke today. if you're a recovering nicotine addict, like me, and you're not smoking today, it's because you've chosen not to smoke today. it's that simple. Kevin Foster.

I have to be at the hospital for 7.30am tomorrow so i will catch you all soon.

Take care all
