I'VE HAD IT!!!! I QUIT!!!!!

Postby Richo » Thu May 13, 2010 10:52 am

Want to quit smoking? :roll:

Nothing helps than announcing it to a shit load of buggers that are sure to keep you on the straight and narrow ;)

It's worked for me, and its worked for a few others . . . . So do yourself a favour and announce your intentions!!! :kuda:

We've all gone through it ourselves, and very keen to provide support to those trying.

Oh .... and in case you havn't heard .... It's no longer cool to smoke :? 8)


TEAM BUNGER CURRENT STATUS


:kuda: Richo - Quit 13th May 2010
:kuda: Supafrog- Quit 14th May 2010
:kuda: ijuschill - Quit 23rd May 2010
:kuda: Mr Wasabi - Quit October 2011

If you know any of these people and see them smoking then please strike them with a large metal or wooden object ;) Or give them a cuddle .. your choice :lol:

:roll: Jonno -Quit 21st May 2010 Fell off wagon, awaiting new date


:oops: ZXRobyn - Quit 16th July 2010 - FAIL - BUSTED

And don't beat yaselves up too much for falling off the wagon, just HTFU and get back on!! :twisted:

Keep it up guys ;)

Smoking that is !!!

Yuppers! .. you heard it here first boys n girls . . . I've had a gut full of the fuckin things so decided to ditch the bungers as of today!!!!! :kuda: :kuda: :kuda: :kuda:

I've been thinking about this for a while and I guess you just have to be in the right frame of mind, so I spose that would be today :shock: . I also figured that announcing it to the whole club is a bold move .. But Im sure it will help . .. . wont it? :?

I will take this oppertunity to appologise to all or any people I have offended along the way with this disgusting habbit .. because I know it does offend . . I would also like to thank Mr Rudd ;) for making the decision a little easier . .although you will now try and get my tax dollars elsewhere Im sure. :twisted:

I've decided to go with the Patches to start with . .. helped heaps last time I gave it a go . . along with the mini lozengers should the craving get too much.

ALSO . . .if anyone else wants to join me in the persuit of some fresh air, then please come aboard . ... We know its alot more fun on a group ride than riding solo ... sometimes ;) I believe there was one or two who said they would :roll: :D . .. what have you got to lose ????

For those that I regularly keep company with . .. I appologise in advance for my mood swings . . :lol: :lol: :lol:

See - this shit is what Facebook is for dude! ;)

Congrats, and I'm very pleased you have been hit by the urge to quit. I'm going to give you a book to read that may help (since you like borrowing our books and not returning them for ages) :P

You can do this mate. You're a stubborn fucker, so I know you can :lol:

11 months for me, there is a pill, not Zyban, that absolutely did the trick for me, well done, the toughest time is the one when you have just finished a good ride, good luck

Good work mate...remember that after the first two weeks it gets easier as that is how long it takes to make or break a habit.

Your well on you way... :kuda:

Richo,

I'm with you!...........although i'm stopping tomorrow... (now that sounds badly like procrastination doesn't it? But i scheduled that last week)

I'm on those pills (champix)... and like zyban they mess with your head... but not as much that i can tell... but i'm having some wonderful weird vivid dreams of late!

So keep it up :o)

.... and from previous attempts i find co-workers are the best people to take quitting aggression out on :P)

and i just hope for your sake that you are 100% serious and comitted to doing this
cause its not only the the bungers, but the lifstyle that you really grow accustom to and thats the hard bit.

If you feel like your going to re-laps then just let me know bro and ill SLAP you out of it Quick smart 8)

Its just not worth killing yourself slowly and sending you broke at the same time ;) ;)

Good luck Bro ;) ;)
