I HAVE given up smoking

[cookie1]

No DH's brother no longer smokes.  I think he would be gone by now if he did. We just heard that they are doing an angiogram on his leg to see how blocked the veins/arteries are to see how much they chop. Last toe or more. I am so glad I never smoked. I tried to a few times but I didn't like it. DH gave up nearly 40 years ago, thank goodness.

It's obvious that everyone is behind you, Mandi - you should be feeling the positive vibes well and truly by now.  This thread was only started approx. 8 hours ago and already we are on page 5 with over 60 replies.  That must be a record.

DH still has a full, unopened packet of John Player Special out in the shed somewhere - he gave up cold turkey like me when his carton got down to the last packet.  Might be worth a fortune on ebay one day 

Do they list the ingredients on them?

I know the ingredients are pretty toxic what ever they are. And they certainly not doing my body any good at all.
My friend has rang the quit line and talked to a lovely lady who is also there for us, her name is Wendy and I will be giving her a ring as well.

No not yet DJ, New Year's Day is the day. But saying that I might give up earlier than that. I have just set a date which myself and my friend have decided on. I think it would probably be best to wait for her as well for us to do it together.
