    Im off the fags two weeks today and it seems to be gettin harder.

    I took advantage of a bad throat infection and didnt smoke for the duration of it cos I was too sick to smoke so I had a four day headstart on the cravings. Ive had a few hard days but the determination got me over them. I also had a few pints the other night and the nicorette inhaler got me through that.

    I can deffo feel the difference in my breathing and I am walking 2 miles every second night (something that I didnt feel I was able to do when I smoked because of the pains in my chest)

    Im craving a lot now but I am still determined to stay away from them. Is it going to get easier ? Because it feels like its getting harder.

    Hi OP, firstly contrats on being off them 14 days! Today Im off them 7 days and so far so good. Two websites which I find great and would recomend are www.stopsmoking.ie and www.whyquit.com. When im having a really bad craving these sites are great for distracting me! Best of luck, you can do it!
