Unlike the previous computerlyable poster who managed his post perfectly without any deleted comments just to show me up!<BR/><BR/>Anyway, I'm sure it will be of great comfort to you to know that on 9th of March 2004, almost in passing, I thought as I rolled a fag "I won't buy any more tobacco when I finish this" and carried on playing dartrs with Bowman, the thought almost forgotten.<BR/><BR/>The following Friday (the 12th) I rolled a cigarette and noticed it was my last rizla and so put down my baccy pouch and half an hour later when someone offered me a cigarette politely declined and haven't smoked since.<BR/><BR/>And was not a noticeably more miserable bastard than usual.<BR/><BR/>Not only was it that easy but I actually lost weight when I stopped smoking due to no more munchies!<BR/><BR/>Now, three years and some months on I am bicycling 20-30km most days of the week (not easy in stupidly, unnecessarily hot Israeli weather) and generally feeling fitter and healthier and things.<BR/><BR/>Your friend Carmen was right, just stop and then forget about it, no cutting down or that kind of crap.<BR/><BR/>Another good way is peer pressure. Tell all your friends that this is it, you have stopped, never to smoke again, then you will have to stick with it for fear of them calling you a no good loser who can't stick to their guns when you start again.<BR/><BR/>Unless, of course, you are not a known anal retentive who people expect to maintain high levels of self-control and watch like a hawk for the first chance to point and jeer gleefully at your failure should you fall!<BR/><BR/>Anyway, good luck, for what it is worth after all this time I still want a damn cigarette from time to time, mostly in the pub with a beer. Bastard things, should be banned!<BR/><BR/>Chin up, and remember, if you fail I shall be there waiting to point and jeer! :)<BR/><BR/>Nik<BR/><BR/>P.S. Why phaeton? It's a great word and I have been waiting for bloody years to use it in Scrabble and have never had the chance. <BR/><BR/>Yes, I am that sad kind of geek who has words he wants to get down in Scrabble.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08867625924776499318noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3615981424017262021.post-68284080973125352662007-07-05T07:22:00.000-07:002007-07-05T07:22:00.000-07:00well done Kat, I quit sunday and by Tuesday aftern...well done Kat, I quit sunday and by Tuesday afternoon thought I had better have a fag rather then be sectioned. Good luck hon, but watch those lollies, they will rot your teeth.
