I used to smoke 20-25 a day and had tried to stop several times. I managed it after my second child was born some 10 years ago. Basically I succeeded because I really wanted to. Other attempts were a bit half hearted. Once it was clear in my head that I was going to do this I actually found it quite easy.

Tips....one day at a time, then a week at a time etc.
           Avoid habitual smoking situations, eg after a meal, with a pint etc.
           Throw all the ashtrays away, or get the wife to hide them.

Good luck mate, if you do it you won't look back.

You are Saughall, best wishes you will win if you want to. Its not that addictive, it tastes sh*t and you only enjoy one out of every 10 or so?

Gave up on new year so on day 6 now and finding it very hard , decided to have two weeks off the beer to help and got some of those lozengers for the toughest times.

Gave up on the 3rd to be different!

As far as today goes, I usually go through about 10 over a game (more vs FGR, less vs Vics ... you can see where this is going!) so not having any was a triumph of willpower over tension.

Didn't go in the club after the match, just drove straight home and came on here - changing habits is important I've been told.

Anyway, thanks for the support everyone.
