Emer’s 9 Weeks Off Cigarettes

Written by colinthebronc on 29 July 2011

Well its 9wks since I had my ‘last’ cigarette. I have to say that I feel fantastic, my fitness just gets better and better. I spoke to my trainor in the gym and I started to write down all I was eating to sort out my weight gain.. Im happy to report that due to reduced portion sizes and eating really healthy ive actually lost weight.
It really can be done if you have a positive head on it.. Its funny because now I hardly think about a cigarette at all, Im focused on my fitness and the only thing keeping me from allowing any thoughts of cigarette is the hunger for living and hoping that Ive not done to much damage to my body after all these years of neglect and abuse with cigarettes..
Im so glad I went cold turkey because it really isnt as ‘awful’ as I thought, and now Ive no nicotine in my body and it was just my head that I had to control and still control..

If I could bottle up how good I feel I would, I just hope that im around for a long time to reap the benefits of my new healty lifestyle.

Good luck to anyone who is on the ‘stop smoking’ journey.. dont give up, you CAN do it..

Emer
