Do you think I will do it?

Day 15

Half a month cleared. I’m beginning to try and look on a larger scale, as you can see!

So today wasn’t too bad. I did walk into town, and have noticed that a few days after I quit, cigarette smoke smelt incredibly strong, it was almost like I could smell it from a mile away, but now it seems to be just a passing aroma. I think that’s probably due to the fact the first few days your brain is tricking you into having one, whereas now that addiction part has passed.

I bought a starbucks earlier, just whilst I was in town, and as I was sat drinking it, a woman decided to practically sit on top of me whilst breast feeding her child. This has nothing to do with smoking, but I found it funny and thought I would type it here. She literally didn’t seem to care that I was sat there, but I must say I was a little uncomfortable about it, looking back now, a good few hours later, it all seems quite funny. Maybe if it was someone I thought was attractive I may have been a lot more interested!

I also bought some shorts today, so I could go running. When I got home, I decided to go for my first run, I won’t lie, I hated it. It showed me how incredibly unfit I am, and how I need to change that. I also got a lot of aches and pains, which if I keep this up, I’m sure I can expect for the next week or so while I get used to it. I got very hot, and ended up walking quickly for most of my planned route, but that has given me something else to work towards now, in a few weeks, maybe a month or two perhaps, I want to be able to easily run that route. When I am able to do that, I will feel like I have achieved something great.

I hope everyone else is still smoke free, and enjoying my updates!

Date tomorrow! Actually a little bit excited now :)

Bye for now!

  1. Larger scale for me is the day I don't have to tell myself that I'm not a smoker. It's seems I need to remind myself more when I'm idle with nothing to do. Moral... Stay busy.

    Not sure if you'll need it, but just in case, good luck on the date tomorrow.
