Don't eat too many sugar free mints. Some of them can have a laxative effect. I stuffed my way through a couple of tins of super strong mints a few years back and spent the next day on the toilet.

There's definitely a theme to most of your posts......
Its hilarious to be fair! It's the same story every time I see him. 1st pint down someone will say coming for a cig mate, no I'm off them, 3 pints in, errrrrr I'm off the shop!

11 days for me as of today (Friday), with a bit of a hiccup on Saturday night while out on the tiles, had a few ciggies off a friend. I'm great at giving up smoking, I've done it dozens of times...
I absolutely can't smoke for the forseeable future though, I have some dental work due where the success rate is halved if I smoke.
Good luck to all you guys who are giving up, it's very warming to know a few of us are going through it.
I totally crave good food and beer now though, replaced the ciggies with flavour and alcohol, I'm likely to be a fat alcoholic before the summer gets here

Well done to all those giving up! I've witnessed two grandparents die a slow painful death from lung cancer, hope I never lose a loved one in that way again.

My fake **** gift box is still in the hallway taunting me every morning. Just one more day.... It's stressful at the moment!
Its a brilliant bit if kit mate. I'd set yourself a stop date and just go for it.
I still want a *** every now and then, but when I think about how far I've come then it puts me off wanting one.

This is where I'm at now. I've found it quite easy to be honest and I use the electric *** less and less each day
That looks like the lists that my dad writes out every time he sees me smoke! You could've bought a villa in Spain by now if you'd never smoked!

They were gone that night and the missus 'kindly' brought me a new pack in the next day. I'm still going to give it a shot now that I know other people that I know (kind of) will be going through the same thing like withdrawels. I'm really clean living except for these evil cancer sticks. Makes me angry towards the manufacturer's to be honest because they add thousands of chemicals to keep you addicted.
Partly my fault for starting but to prey on people's addictions is pure evil.
Im looking at it in the same vain. My mortgage looks like its going to be between 650/750 a month depending on what I buy. If I don't smoke ill be saving roughly 220 quid a month on ****, plus all the other money ill save not buying all the other junk you do when you go in for **** like fizzy pop and sweets. I reckon I'll be saving nearer 300 quid a month. And that's a hefty chunk of my mortgage.

I gave up the **** on Tuesday. Bought an e-lites starter kit and its going well.
Hardly using the e-cig tbh, used it 3 times yesterday and not really having a full **** worth.

No. None at all. Been sticking to my electric ***. But Hardley used that to be honest. It's still in the van and I haven't used it since about 4 this afternoon.

Awesome Leo. That is great. The 2 of you are both succeeding. Do you feel like you have a bit of a rivalry going? Would make it a bit more fun I think

Made you abit more grumpy tho hasn't it! I must say that the first *** of the day is a bit of a struggle sometimes. But it's the 2nd one that I would miss most.
When you have Been on the ale and not smoked that's when you know you have cracked it! Once you have experienced every situation in life you associate smoking and get through it your there. Like last year on holiday, first time round a pool without them, I'd been of them over a year by then and as soon as I got round that pool, boom cravings kicked in like I'd only give up yesterday, lasted for 2 days then I was fine

I gave up the cancer sticks in my 30's and because of this had this uncontrollable urge to have sex. Come to think of it, I had that urge while on the **** too.
Well done to you guys for giving up and sticking with it. Your lungs should benefit, not the UK treasury.

Truest statement ever, everyone will realise this in good time.
i gave up a whole ago now and there's still times that make you think of it. I totally agree with the first time around the pool. Killed me in August. Also things like seeing old friends, sitting in my van outside old jobs.
Just control yourself when you're on the lash, when all your mates head for the smoking area just stay inside.
Fairplay giving up for that amount of time
what have you done with the money you've saved? Bought some cheap tools off amazon?
