"Day 3. Had to cancel the ‘reminders’, ‘motivation messages’ etc as I’ve been doing well, but every time these pop up to remind me how well I’ve been doing it makes me think about cigarettes which I haven’t been doing as I’ve kept myself extremely busy, so I’ve switched them off and will make use of the distractions and aids as needed. "

"Day 13, Cold Turkey. Partner still smoking around me. Feeling confident. Talking has helped. Be kind to yourself, that's what I'm doing. "

"1 & half weeks that I have not smoked for I've only been smoking again 5 years After not smoking approx 15 years It's even more hard now to give up even after only having break "

"Worked out how much I had saved from giving up and treated us all to a beach weekend. I could really enjoy the games we played - without being so breathless. What a change! "

"Day 7 and struggling at times however have a very strong desire to quit. Thankyou Quitline for your ongoing support. Wow, 7 days tobacco free! 😁 "

"Only on day three smoke free my first cup a coffee is being really challenging lol"

"I’m happy to be in a positive position to take up the quit challenge again. The Quit Team has been really helpful so now it’s time to put the resources, assistance and tips into practice. Day 1 today."

"Day 25 and tobacco free. Still using the lozenges supplied by Quitline however no patches for 5 days."

"Day 48, Cold Turkey. Going to stop saying I'm quitting and start saying: "I DONT SMOKE" :) "

"I've got a deal with myself. I put a list of things I want to do on 20 cards. Small things. Each day I don't give in - I select a card at random! Winner!"

"Decided that I’d do a quick exercise (squats, sit ups etc) each time I got a bad craving. Made me get over the cravings more quickly!!! (And yeah, I did do a little bit more exercise). Beats eating my way through them! "

"Day 1 and hanging for a smoke using patch and lozenges Was 40 a day any tips greatly appreciated "

"My hair feels healthier, my brain is working, I'm eating healthier, I'm even been doing Aqua aerobics in the pool for 3 days a week for 5 weeks and I have lost 2 inches of my weight. Things can only get better from now on...."

"Each time I didn’t give into a craving - I put $2 in a jar. In the end, I realised I was putting in more money the than I was getting cravings! False economy! "

"It’s been 10 days into my second quit attempt. Keep on wanting to reward myself with a few cigs!! How crazy is that?!? My Brain is an idiot"

"Day 8 and still staying strong even though going through major stresses at the moment. Allergic to the adhesive on the patches however moving them around as to persevere."

"One week in and feeling confident I can maintain my no nicotine status. I still think about smoking but have the strength to walk past the ciggie shops. 👏👏. A new milestone for me. "

"Day 8 still smoke free last night was the first time a had a good night sleep I am doing well have a great smoke free day everyone "

"Just cracked 17 days no smoking, been doing alot more running and exercise, good luck everyone we can do this"

"Day 10, and I sat around with my brother’s friends at his birthday party - everyone smoking! I managed to say no. I’ve found that saying “no thanks, I’m not a smoker,” is a better frame of mind than “I’m very tempted but I’m quitting.” Hoping you keep up your goals this week! Keep it up. You’re doing yourself a world of good."
