Giving up smoking is tough. But I’m giving it a good go. Went to the shop this morning to buy a paper, used the debit card, computer says no,
How is this possible? I got paid today, I’m nowhere near my limit, my bank seems to think that a few transactions from my card the weekend previous in Lincoln is deemed “suspicious” and blocked my card. Great, just what I need, smoking pangs and no Guardian.

Ah well things to keep me busy, replace one addiction with another, decided that computer consoles are an ex smokers godsend, I’m playing anything, even games designed for 6 year olds, anything to keep my mind off smoking. It works too. I would recommend it, drinking so much tea as well, tea is good.

Keep positive, I used to be such Athlete, waking up at 6am to put a couple of hours training in on the mountain bike before school, these days the only exorcise I get is a five a side football match once a week… and I’m the goal keeper.

Anyway that’s the update for today, still holding out.

I have been an avid smoker for many years, I smoke about 10 a day, I also drink, other than these indiscretions I’m a healthy 29 year old male. But i hate smoking, I hate it because I just cant quit, I have tried everything, patches, gum, event those crazy nasal spray inhalers,(i just ended up getting addicted to them for a short period of time as well! – whilst still smoking.) But nothing works, and you know why? BECAUSE I HAVE NO WILLPOWER. It’s my own fault, there is no other explanation, I fail where others succeed.

In fact I live with two people who gave up Smoking for new year, they not only gave up smoking but they gave up drinking alcohol and eating. Well Eating junk food, giving up eating completely would have been a little drastic.

Anyway they succeeded, the changed their life, and yet I’m still burdened with the fags.

Over the next few days im going to try and cut down, to smoke less. and I’ll let you know how i get on.
