set myself a big challenge

[Kel]

on Saturday I gave up smoking after 23 years thanks to a big push from my 10 year old son. My son had science class during the week on the dangers of smoking ... it got him so up set he was in tears.

Well the thats not the challenge.. but this is

Can I save enough money to buy a RS mk2 Escort and keep the Audi. Figures work out ( X Pack or Mex I think)

I really have to thank him. So far So good.

Good move Kel, you have the hard bit out of the way.

You have already decided to give up, thats the important key to success.

If you dont really want to give up then you are screwed.

I gave up around 6 years ago now, I remember the day well, I was sat waiting for Joe (off this board) and I said to my mate that I was now smoking my last cigerette, he never believed me, but I really belived it.

I used the gum for a few weeks and have never missed smoking once.

i've tried using patches a few times but end up smoking the same amount as normal with them on as well,
What was the gum like ????

nothing will work if you have not made the first step

first step is to decide you want to quit

come back when you are at this stage

Go for it Kel, personally, never even tried one, my three wouldn,t touch one, they say its tough, however the lure of a mk2... should see you through, as well as the health benefits. Good luck.
