    Right, so a smoker of 15 years.

    Moved onto "Rollies" a few years back due to price. Health was suffering and I was finding simple outdoor activities difficult as a result of the smokes. Smoked mainly while working and driving. Smoked about one a night at home.

    Gave up on New Years Day Cold Turkey :)

    Found it okay. Got up at 7am and went to a local public park. Ran up a hill. Whilst at the top of the hill getting sick made a note to remind myself that this was as a result of smoking so that I should remember this feeling if I ever want to smoke again.

    Went home, spent the day inside, full of energy and no appetite. Gave in before bed time at 10pm though and rolled a cigarette. Smoked it entirely..... felt great after it and very guilty too.

    Strange day.

    Slept okay. Started back in work. Spent an hour in the car at the start. Would probably have smoked about three at that stage but didn't. Got to work but felt a bit off. Bad cough and sore throat developed.

    Got through the day okay.

    Went home and had some dinner. Ate for the sake of it but really wasn't hungry. Went to bed about 8pm. Halucinated heavily until about 11pm when I went off to sleep. Very feverish during the night. No more slip ups.

    Cough is really getting to me now. I am coughing constantly and those working with me are getting annoyed by it too.

    Pangs are hitting in hard but heavily offset by the stuffed up nasal feeling I am having.

    Couldn't face breakfast, had lunch and Dinner was forced. Just not in the mood for food. Having a lot of pangs at the moment. Don't want to smoke but my brain is trying to convince me that I could "just do it at weekends" etc..... Merely dismissing that.

    Thinking that I should burn or bury or destroy the tobacco in the house. I think it might be a bad idea to have it so close. Will think about it further.

    No slip ups today.

    Okay, I reckon I have a bit of the Flu and a chest infection and not sure if it's related but it's bloody annoying.

    Few pangs today, nothing I couldn't handle. Hovered over the tobacco today looking at it considering rolling up. Then I coughed my lungs up compliments of the chest infection.

    All in all I am VERY bored. Trying to keep yourself occupied when you're ill isn't as easy as you would think!! Anyway, so far so good and I am still in the clear :)
