After smoking for around fifty eight years solid it does seem strange. We both admit to getting cravings occasionally, but less as it goes on.
Attaboy! Keep vigilant because the desire never really goes away although the cravings become more and more manageable. The first few weeks are the worst so you are over that hump. You also need to avoid eating too much as an alternative source of oral gratification - no point in avoiding lung disease to collapse of heart disease through overweight!

Oh yes it does. I'm completely addiction free

There's a difference between desire and addiction...

Yes, I suppose there is. I stopped desiring cigarettes well before I conquered my addiction. The addiction would have been impossible to overcome if the desire had still been in place.

I have no desire to ever smoke again. In fact, the thought of it rather disgusts me now.

Well done Dan! What's the plan now?

Enjoy the moment! Remember getting my results some seven years ago (christ im old). Don't remember the evening, however.

Virgin Media announce this morning that all top package customers will get the BT Sports channel for free. :) In fact the channel has already appeared in my listing!
