Great success - read my suggestions
Hi everyone, greetings from New Zealand,
I gave up smoking 37 days ago after sarting at age 12 (I'm now 43 but did stop for 6 years when my son was small).
My good friend and I have both stopped after reading Allan carr's book "How to stop smoking the easy way" and I'm now reading his latest book which is much more detailed.
This guy is great and what he says makes so much sense. The last time I gave up I had to stay away from smokers, bars, coffee and I took up eating (put on 4 stone, ie 56lb). This time I just don't want to smoke - no patches, gum, overeating, just pure relief. No withdrawal symptoms, no feeling sick or coming down with viruses, just happiness at being free of the nictine monster. I've been to parties and bars, had coffee with friends and no problems.
I recommend reading the book, even if it just gets you thinking.
Good Luck
