Hi Kookaburra, I'm from Oz - NSW Southern Tablelands - its a lot colder here than in Adelaide. You seem to be doing very well - I just can't get past 24 hours - I think its the fact that I have 3 teenage boys at home - and everytime I get home, one of them has done something that sends me over the edge - maybe we can swap houses for a while - would be real nice to hide away in the garden.

Hi kooka, I'm from the Blue Mountains near Sydney (& we're surrounded by families of kookaburra's :)). You'll mostly find me now on the threads for losing weight :confuse: . I've needed to lose weight since I had my child (she's now 2 years old - lol) Now that I'm not smoking hopefully I'll be able to get fit a bit easier! Good luck with stopping smoking - you CAN do it!! The glovebox tools here are great and the support you get is fantastic!! talk to you soon alison :) [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 5/16/2006 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 25 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 756 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $312.5 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 3 [B]Hrs:[/B] 13 [B]Mins:[/B] 47 [B]Seconds:[/B] 21

Hi Kookaburra, Congratulations on quitting smoking and welcome to SSC, this is a wonderful place and we wish you the best...Stay strong and don't let your guard down for one second... I have been searching for people for Australia, I have found one for sure...Look in the forum title MAY COMPANY, these are people that quit in May. They just formed this group so it should be easy to find. Her screen name is Chickstarr (Allison) and she lives in Sydney Australia. Another person talks about the Australian Gov quit site. His name is Bubba and he is on the forum in a post made by Cuddles: HELP ME GET THROUGH THIS dated 3/12/06. I hope this will help you. Stay close to the site and stay strong. You can search each of these messages in the main forum under search message. Just type it in and it will come up. Be blessed, Sunshine [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 1/7/2006 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 148 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 2,532 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $518 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 21 [B]Hrs:[/B] 10 [B]Mins:[/B] 6 [B]Seconds:[/B] 15

Hello Ann, that sound like par for the course! hold on tight as it is a bit of a challenge particularly during the first week. Make sure you have a plan for coping with the craves, use the program tools on the left to give you a helping hand.

Minties is from Australia, but I haven't seen her on in quite a while. There are some... and even us Americans are sometimes late nighters, so we are on at all times of the night, which is the middle of the day for you, so if you post, you're bound to find somebody on. There's a thread in the main forum called "night owls" something or other... anyway, that's basically the thread that people who are on here in the middle of the night use, so if you post on that thread, somebody will probably answer you. Good luck! Crave the Quit!
