Last smoked a cigarette on 14-03-99

Put on about 6 1/2 stone in the interim...

Any other tales of breaking the habit in NSC land? :wave:

See, that's the ONLY thing that scares me about giving up. I've been smoking for about 7/8 years now and I've already 'filled out' over those years thanks to beer and food! I don't fancy getting any bigger anytime soon!

When I gave up I was playing footie twice a week, and was reasonably fit, despite the smoking. The weight gain was partly due to stopping playing footie, so I keep threatening myself with digging out the Adidas Beckenbauers and having a little kickabout :)

Don't know if the knees will take it though :cry:

I'm going for hypno-therapy on Thursday 26th March. I have two weeks left of being a smoker and I'm making the most of it.

Now where's my tobacco?

I was on 4 x 2oz. pouches of Old Holborn a week!

That's 1/2 pound of tar and other shit that goes into them...

One-way street to Coronarysville I fancy...

Shame I've added half my body weight though...

Er, One-way street to Coronarysville I fancy...

I tried that once

Was a bit concerned when I came too, as my trousers were on back to front :)
