Excellent stuff guys
I'm off them nearly two years and probably fitter now at 43 than I was at 25.

Started (yet again) 14 days ago with Stage 1 patches which had some success last year. I forgot to put one on last thursday and haven't bothered with any since, so far no drama. I've tried without success at least three times a year for a few years, but this time it just feels right for some reason.
The plus sides so far: A few flatterers have told me that my wrinkles seem to be disappearing, I feel calmer at work which is a surprise AND I'm getting more and more PR's on uphill Strava segments with relative ease - all of which serve to make me wonder how on earth I justified smoking over the last 20 years <stupid!>.
Don't stop quitting guys, each time you try is a step closer to success..

I had a taste of a first ciggy when I was 5yrs old ( 1965 ) sat on the front doorstep puffing away. It was a different world back then. I used to buy 5 Park drive and a book of matches for 5p at the local co-op while waiting for the school bus when I was 11yrs old. I took the concious desision on my 40th birthday to quit smoking, sell my car and got back into cycling after a short break. 13yrs later and great knowledge from the net has revitalised my health and knowledge and turned me into a cycling anorak.
You are doing well.....keep it up Don't let these little cancer sticks rule your life

Good luck to you all, it's a filthy unhealthy smelly pointless and expensive addiction, and your lives will improve no end if you stay off the smokes.
