Off the fags
-
Keep it going Sean. I gave up on 1st Jan 2000 and never looked back. Smoked 30 a day for the past 20 years and i feel better for trying.
The cravings will be hard at first but they die out fast, I still get them now when i smell smoke, but a second later its gone.. If you get a craving,grab your camera and take a photo of something in your house.
You can call it a “Craving Project”
Congratulations on taking that first step! and here’s to a smoke free future.
Choose something from the camera shop you REALLY want and put all the
money you would have spent on the nasty sticks in a big jar and watch how
quickly you will be able to afford it. :)Day 2 Sean :arrow:
I hope you’re going strong.
Ask Cathal for a lend of his new tripod head… assuming he got it… that’ll take your mind of things for a while.

Hope all is going well Sean, I’m off the fags a week today and it’s killing me. Who said the first 48 hrs are the hardest. Driving home every night is the hardest part, I never smoked at work so I used to look forward to my smoke going home in the car. For the last week I tell myself I’m doing brilliantly and that in the long run it will benefit me. I see everyone saying to change your lifestyle and not to do things that you associate with smoking, that’s easy to say, I smoked when I was setting up the tripod, I smoked between shot, I smoked while driving to the location, I smoked when I got to the top of the hill when I was hill walking, up on till last Thursday, I would say most things in my life were associated with smoking.
Best of Luck Sean, hope your doing well.

Best of luck to both of you – Sean how is it going with you.
Dave, my experience has been that it is different for everyone – just keep focussing on the shorterm, looking too far ahead (without
a smoke) was almost my undoing a couple of times.Keep it up! :D
In order to promote PI member health I suggest that the 5-Pie association be exclusive to non-smokers only.
All existing 5-Pie Smokers should be reduced to 4-Pie status, and any 4-Pie members who come knocking on the door should be left outside until they are 6 months clean.
With 5-pie status one of the most sought after achievements in any persons life this sort of incentive could have a huge impact on people’s will to give up the ciggies.
Achieving 5-Pie status ranks up there in my top 3 life moments.

sorry to have to say this………………….but I have lost my will power and am back smoking.
but will have to try again, and soon.
Sean. :oops: :oops: :oops: :oops: :oops: :oops:
Shame on ye !! :( “Tomorrow is always another day” — GWTW
Try the patches Sean, apparently they work.
Pat
Sean, I bet you feel much better now. Only kidding, it’s a pity you haven’t stuck it out as I’m sure sooner or later it will get easier. As Pat said there’s always tomorrow.
Dave.
Look tomorrow is another day…..just take one day at a time, dont say I am
never going to smoke again just say tomorrow I wont smoke then move on
to the next day, you have really got to want to do this for you for it to work,
if you are not ready dont beat yourself up, one day you will be….SO TOMORROW
