FYI it feels good!



To be honest with you people, I toke the decision of not smoking anymore and i wasn't convinced at all, But I slept on that decision and woke up the next day having only one ceg with the morning coffee, After that i had the pack with me the whole day and i ended up giving it away to someone who needs it more then me, And that was 2 days ago.

Since then i have been suffering mood swings, Headaches, Anger, And i had lot's of fights with my colleagues at work for no reason at all, And the funny thing when i told me that I quit smoking they all forgive my anger and even allowed me to let it all out with them being mad!

I never imagined quitting smoking is that easy!, God i even feel that i can do more " Field " work without being that tired!, And i have quit since 2 days only!, I'm already starting to forget it, And what makes me so happy is that it's actually saving me money i don't need to spend, Though i wish money isn't the issue but sadly it is.

dude I haven't smoked one cig since 1-1-2010, i still remember the 1st day, it was hellish, the second as well, it gets easier ,though I smoke argeeleh from time to time now. i'll blog about it when its my 3 months anniversary :P
anyway, just wanna say, keep it up and don't listen to the voicesi n your head "its okay if you had one",that one will break u mentally, fihgt the urge and then see how liberated u'll feel when u realize u dnt feel u want it so bad and u can move on with ur day! FYI, it feels good :)

You must feel really proud. I know two days don't seem like a long time, but in the long run every day matters.
I know the main reason you're doing this is because of money, but you must think of your health too.

Good luck turning those two days into two years. :)

Wallah ya Ali ow it seems like things are shaping up :). Never stop believing in yourself and never stop telling yourself that things will be better and you will get what you want.
I wish the best for you, and know we're always here.

Although I am not a smoker, it seems all the relatives I spend time with are. My mother in law finally quit, but only having two open heart surgeries. You are making a wonderful and extremely commendable decision for you and your family. Keep it up! I hope to read Naser and your 3 month of quitting blog. Maybe I will have to read it to my husband!

keep busy with other stuff.
forget about the anniversary! and it will be easier to quit.

i never smoked but always thought i could easily quit if i wanted to. of course had to convince myself otherwise and take my friends' word that its hard to quit.

now i'm in London and i know many, many people who quit smoking and they say its easy! so i dont know who to believe anymore: my Jordanian friends or my gut and European friends?!

anyway, forget about it, with time the withdrawal symptoms should become less effective and you will feel even better :) good luck
