Blueys first journal!

Well here it is, please go easy on mesmiley - winkeye

The reason for this?

I'm giving up smoking,not because of this ban but for myself and because i'm doing a charity run for breast cancer in july an thought it a little hypocritical to be puffing away at the start and finish!

I'm using H2 to chart my progres..or my failures because hopefully it'll give me the engouragement i need or it may help someone else.

So after smoking since i was 16 i've decided to give it a go.....

Anyway 4 days ago i armed myself with them patches,which i was wary of,thinking them to be nothing more than a placebo of sorts.I mean how can a little piece of sticky plastic compensate for a real ciggie?smiley - erm

DAY 1: I'm amazed these patches actually work!Apart from generally wanting to throttle everyone who annoyed me and eating loads of sweets,i feel ok.Something i did learn though the bus home stinkssmiley - illAlthough telling my collegues that i was quitting no one seemed to pay attention to itsmiley - wahThe evening was the hardest,so i only ate a little of my tea cos i knew if i was full i'd want a ciggie.Total ciggies= 0 smiley - diva

DAY 2:Woke up thinking,oh no got to do that again todaysmiley - sadface Was a moody cow all day and collegues still not helpingsmiley - grr Cut out the sweets cos i don't want to put weight on as wellsmiley - groanDidn't feel like myself all day and don't know whysmiley - wahAnd told mum an dad today,they said there proud of me.Have found using mouthwash helps,cos you want to keep the nice taste in your mouth for longer.Was tempted in the evening,(i was bored)but resisted!smiley - divaTotal ciggies= 0.

DAY 3:I've been waking to the same urge every morning,but today for some reason it wasn't that bad.My mood is improving,getting back to my usual laid back self.Mum bought me a present for giving up,am now wondering what else i can give upsmiley - evilgrin. Have found the only time i feel like one is around 9-10pm so have been keeping busy at that time.Total ciggies:0

DAY 4:Today, so far today i haven't even felt like one,so am i actually managing to kick the habit??Who knows? Wish me luck!!!!
