Funny phenomenon that, when i see Iam almost out of smokes I smoke more. :?

I have successfully quit using champix a few years ago, then life turned to shite in a few big ways so I smoked again.

Pick up champix today so here goes.. 8)

Hear! Hear!!!!!!

Congratulations to everyone, especially Richo for inspiring us all!! ;o)

Now that it's coming up to a year.. i have:

1. Not smoked
2. Managed to not only lose the gained weight... But get back to a weight of 11 years ago.
3. Managed to run consistently 12 k's a day once a week without dying for last 5 months when prebiously just walking up a hill was a chore :)

..
so there are rewards to be had! and I am loving being able to breath!



... on the downside.. I turned into one of those people repulsed by stale cigarette smell.. let alone being around a lit cig :roll:

Good luck Jonno, but you might need to give up the drink as well.
Once you have a couple of drinks you will crave for a smoke.
