I just thought that, since the best way I found to pack up was just to pack up there and then
How many a day did you used to smoke before so doing?
Sorry, I missed this one at the time; I didn't intend to seem rude in not responding. The answer is between 30 and 50.

Best,

Alistair

Latest progress report: have maintained a steady rate of just 10-15 max a day. Only had 5 today so far. And the incessant cravings are starting to diminish somewhat. In the meantime, cooking lots of steaks, eating nice biccies, drinking scotch in the evening, and so on! Not one cigarette has been smoked between the walls of this house since a week gone Sunday, nor will one.

Count me in also as very impressed, Ian, judging from what I remember of your rate of consumption c. 2005. 

Now we just have to do something about that steak addiction  Roll Eyes

Hope you're not going to sustain an injury from all this patting on the back  Grin, but here's another 'keep on keeping on' from me too.

Thanks all for your well wishes! The steak addiction I'm not too worried about at present...less ciggies, more steaks?

Ian's last cigarette (to be); burnt at the steak...

I prefer a nice rare organic ribeye to a rebus, meself...

Anyway, Ian, we're all rooting for your final lap towards the finishing post of giving up completely! Good luck once more - and well done so far!

Best,

Alistair

Ian,

I expect you are now consuming more steaks than fags - how's it going?

Can we start a Giving Up Chocolate Room?

I'd really have a dreadful job to do it. However, I really think I ought to.  Cry

Let's try this Milly........

a) lung cancer caused by smoking


b) stomach cancer caused by eating too much chocolate


Does that help?
