Wessies Posted March 6, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 6, 2008 Wow! Great response!My hubby and I will have our last smoke on Sunday evening too. Come Monday, we'll make a clean start.In so far:Me & hubby, NicoDixieNicInekeAndrea & hubbyThat makes 7 of us!Maybe's: RedNiloE&CJNatsGavinKLyk ook of ons sommer 'n groot ondersteuningsgroep het! Thanks for all the support! I came across this website : www.againstsmoking.org, see Quit Guide. Ek dink dit gee mens ook bietjie aansporing en help jou om jou kop reg te kry.Okay so Monday is D-day! Good luck to all, I hope our number of 7 keeps growing! (Come on "Maybe's - kry julle koppe reg!) And remeber when you're suffering through Monday - you're not alone!

Wessies Posted March 6, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 6, 2008 Hey Nilo, klink vir my na 'n uitdaging! As "ma" van hierdie website moet jy vir ons 'n voorbeeld stel!!Komaan seekoeitjie, ek weet jy en jou man wil ook quit! Moenie dink oor jy jou naam verander het, ons weet nie van jou nie!

valkie Posted March 7, 2008 Report Share Posted March 7, 2008 Hallo Almal,Ek wens julle alle sterkte toe met die ophou rook ding. Ons het opehou rook toe ons in Kanada was, geen normale mens kan buite in -32 staan en rook nie!!! Tot my bitter spyt het ons so stelselmatig weer begin hier in Australia, julle weet net naweke oor 'n drankie of wanneer ons in aanraking kom met vriende wat rook . Wel die een ding lei tot die ander en ons rook nou baie meer as wat ons beplan het. Ek sukkel my half besimpeld om dit heeltemal op te gee.Ek is so bly dat ek hierdie post gesien het, nou kan julle my ook darem inspire om weer te stop, want sien, hier in Aus raak dit nie -32 nie, so geen aansporing vir my om op te hou nie.GroeteValkie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StefanHeunis Posted March 7, 2008 Report Share Posted March 7, 2008 Het al zyban probeer, op daardie stadium was dit vroulief se idee nie myne nie so nie eers die zyban het gewerk nie. Na al hierdie posts voel ek ek gaan maar weer probeer voor ek oorgaan. Sal ook net huidige vooraad klaarmaak. Kom ons kyk hoe gaan dit hierdie keer.

Debra Posted March 7, 2008 Report Share Posted March 7, 2008 Well Wessies, monday is a date. After 20 odd years here it goes again. Hubby stopped Nov 2006 and i cringe that i have not had the guts or will power to. A few days here and there has always ended in defeat. At this stage of the game the family is ging to have to grin and bare it. Bit their heads off long ago. Stress levels are high and if the bank valuer eventually gets here and the bond for the purchaser of our home is approved i will have succeeded with 2 things. This whole process has pushed the 20 a day to 30. But we are hoping to have the container packed by the end of the month. At last. Nilo we are nearly there. Let us know how you are all managing. REMEMBER MONDAY!!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrea Posted March 7, 2008 Report Share Posted March 7, 2008 Hi guysI jumped the gun a bit and had my last smoke yesterday. Warning to all - giving up SUCKS !! Especially, because DH is still puffing away. I have been chewing gum all day, along with an entire chocolate slab and a full packet of coles caramel bars (all 12 of 'em)!I am destined to be smoke free but fat ..... sigh!Looking forward to some company on monday ....

legrange Posted March 8, 2008 Report Share Posted March 8, 2008 Hi menseEk rook glad nie. Het een sigaret gerook en glo my geROOK dit was 'n Chesterfield. Ek was vir 2 dae siek . So naar!Ek het nie weer 'n begeerte gehad om te rook nie. Ek sê altyd: "hoekom moet ek iets aanleer wat ek later weer moet afleer"Ek wil net sê ek is trots op almal wat wil ophou. My boetie wil ook ophou maar ek dink nie hy wil regtig nie. Sterkte met die stryd en vind jul sterkte in ons Vader.Ek hou vir julle duim vas. .
