Five years off of the f*gs and yes first two weeks are difficult
Missus off f*gs too and the money we save covers the mortgage on our house in Spain
If you are strong enough to stop smoking you are strong enough not to spend the money on food
Spend it on something worthwhile and keep reaping this health benefits
Do I miss it after five years? Only every minute of every day but hey I don't want to smoke so I don't

Gordon you need to read Allen Carr's "easy way to quit smoking" just as much as anyone who wants to stop smoking today! There is a chapter in the book that covers people who stop using will power alone. Some like yourself have stopped smoking for many years but suffer every day still wanting to smoke but using their very strong will power deny themselves a smoke but continue to want one, its a self imposed form of torture.
I stopped smoking after reading this book. I was a smoker for 40 years started with the odd shared fAg at 10 years old and was a fully fledged smoker 1 year later. As it says in the book, I never thought for one second when I was having the first couple of puffs that this was going to keep me hooked for 40 years.
I cant explain the book you will have to read it yourself but it left me not wanting to smoke and you cannot crave something you do not want. I've been stopped two years now and don't miss them at all, no cravings at all. I admire your will power, when I tried to stop using only will power, like you all I could think about was smoking.
