Day 11 continued ....

Well, after a very rough start to the day of actually being sick - I have decided that today is the first day of me being a non smoker. I have managed to go over 11 hours without having a cig so decided that there's not much point having one now - so have bought my stop date forward (I wasn't intending on stopping until Wednesday).

It has been a little tough and I am still getting the urge to have a smoke, but then I think about why I'm doing this, the money I'll save and the health benefits and it gets me through the bad moments! I also have a stress ball that my doctor gave me so I give that a good old squeeze every now and again!

I also had an hour singing today and have actually found a new tone to my voice that seems to have strengthened since my nicotine intake has been reduced!

Nobody said this was gonna be easy - but it will definitely be worth it!

  1. Hi Louise,

    Well I decided to go at it head on without the Champix tablets and have so far done 16 hours.

    Well done to you for getting this far, I am ever so proud of you.

    I will help you as much as I can to make sure we kick the habit together once and for all.
