But OH is making Stroganoff, so he'll have a glass, and I can hear it calling me...

[BrideXIII]

just cos i am rubbish doesn't mean you have to be!!!!

[SarzWix]

C'mon girls, you can do it! One little slip - just put your crampons on and start back up the slope!
List your reasons for doing it, remember what your aiming for.
(((Hugs)))

PS. I only had 6 yesterday, 4 so far today, which is less than half what I was having before so you're doing me good too

OK, sod the vino, and sod the diet - I'll finish the Tiramisu!

Well my friend came over today to "look after me"! Hmmmmph. It's quite sweet though really, he brought lemsip and lemons, made me some soup and cooked some chicken for me, then rolled a ciggie in the sitting room and smoked it!! I was coughing so much that he said he'd go out with it, but didn't. Anyway, what I'm trying to say is that even though I've been in the company of someone smoking, yes, I did want one! I don't smoke rollies though, so I haven't had one. That's Day 3 out of the way.

Everyone, you're doing great too. Tomorrow's going to be easier (I hope)

Tiramisu - that's not proper booze is it It's like having the calories fall out of biscuits when they get broken. Enjoy but don't go back for seconds xxx

[furball]

Hats off to you maureenhall. I haven't been to my friends today because she smokes. She was supposed to be giving up with me but changed her mind. Well done you.

Confession time
Got up in the middle of the night, saw a half-smoked fag in the ash tray and lit it. 2 drags then squashed. I'm not counting it as a failure, just a trip, and still counting my FF hours from 6 (I think it was - ish) pm on Wednesday so as at 6am today, that's 84 hours and if I didn't have the sneezies etc I think I'd be feeling pretty good.

[bobleponge]

Mo and Bride, and any others who are in the same situation, thats not a failure, and Bride you are certainly not rubbish.
Even though I have never smoked, I've seen my kids and ex partners try to do what you're doing, and I know its not easy. There will be times when its going to be tempting, but the times will get less, and the benefits will increase all the time.
Stick with it, hard though it may be its going to be sooooo beneficial for you all in the long run.

[Flummery]

I'm really impressed, not just that you got this far but that you have 'fessed up' about the odd drag or two. I agree with Bob, that's not failure - it's Making a Person of you! Keep going - I'm rooting for you all and reading this thread with as much interest as I did Lynda's incubator thread!

So we've all lapsed then. The little bit of alcohol-flavoured goo in the bottom of my Tiramisu is my 'two puffs'

As for seconds, I had such a huge bowlfull there was none left for seconds


(slopes off feeling guilty)

We've got roast Lamb tonight, so OH will open more wine .

[lynda66]

*shoots gluttons OH* ...... and don't worry about the odd couple of puffs, it's not really smoking, it's just like remembering not to pick your nose and eat it, in church when you're 5 ...... eventually you won't get the urge any more
