GOOD MAN on getting this far. 95% give up in the first 5 days. I guess this means you're doing it for real :shock: :D

Hi Jani.
Things havent started to taste different yet but i expect they will eventually.
I am now on day 19 and it is still very difficult but i intend to win.
I did try many years ago and lasted three weeks but failed.
If i stick it out untill next Wednesday it will be the longest i have not had a smoke since 1976.
Cheers lads for all the encouragment.
