MY NON SMOKER JOURNEY

I have had so many goals and challenges I have set myself over the years , some I have accomplished, some I haven’t even started!. Quiting smoking had been on my list for at least ten years for numerous of reasons- health at the top of the list .




If you have followed me for a while then you will know I had the most awful cough for well over a year that I just could not shift , and I was always out of breath for walking only up and down the stairs .

Money- smoking is so expensive and with three children , I thought of all the money I could save and the day trips we could go on and I also didn’t want the girls seeing me keep lighting a cigarette up and want to copy mummy!.

I can happily say that I have been a non smoker now for 4 years , 5 years this November and I actually can’t believe it . It wasn’t easy, I did many a time and failed, I tried going cold turkey, tried patches , but I honestly didn’t think I had the will power at the start.

Before quitting smoking completely I went on to an E-Cigarette. An E-Cigarette is a device that allows you to inhale nicotine through vapour rather than smoke. E-Cigarettes come in a variety of models and work by heating a solution that typically contains nicotine, propylene glycol and / or vegetable glycerine and flavourings.

Knowing that E-Cigarette vapour doesn’t contain tar or carbon monoxide, which are are two of the most harmful elements in tobacco smoke , made the transition for me quite easy if I am honest, and saves you so much money.
