Day 9

Awesome. Not a single thought of wanting a smoke this morning.

Day 6

I know, it's only rock and roll, but I like it like it yeah yeah yeah!!!!

Day 5

Tick tock.

The cravings gnaw at me.

Powerful and overwhelming urges to smoke.

To light one up.

To draw in that lungful of poison and because I think it will make me feel great.

But I will not.... I will NOT.

Day 3

Who would have thought that I would make it to day 3?

I bet no one!

I have and have avoided one or two crises this morning during which I could have set myself on fire to have a smoke..... got through them though and so far have been smoke free for 69 hours.

No more Carbon Monoxide in my body.

No more Nicotine in my body.

Day 2

09h40 Sunday morning. I have been through the Friday night and Saturday night of a weekend.

On both nights I was out with friends, some of whom are smokers, and I must say that it was not as bad as I thought it would be.

I do have to be careful not to gulp gallons of alcohol down my throat every time I feel the urge to grab someone by the neck and steal their cigarettes from them!

By no means out of the woods yet, but a damn fine start.

Tick tock tock tock

Thanks you those of you who have been encouraging and supportive. Much appreciated.

Day 0

It has started. I extinguished my last cigarette at 14h52 today local time in Kuala Lumpur.

31 years a smoker fool.

3 hours and 50 minutes a non smoker....

Nic Benson - you are a scholar and a gentleman for your words of support.

Non Smoker

Tomorrow, 26 June 2009, I will attempt to become a non-smoker. It is time.
