Thank you for adding this section.
Ok, my quit date is when I come back of holiday so I am aiming for the 5th September (coincides with the RETURN TO SCHOOL) and I have no mindees for another 10 days after that so I think that for me is going to be a perfect time.
My reasons for packing up the ciggies:
Biggest Reason - My health My families health Smell on my clothes/me Cost
I have never smoked near the children or in the house and I manage to go the day without one when I am minding so I guess I am half way there.
I quit about 18months ago for 6 months after a scare with a smear test, I had several irregular tests and then the biopsy came back with significant changes and I underwent a colposcopy (not pleasant). My latest test has come back clear thankfully but its time to quit. I am disgusted with myself that I started smoking again - especially since I found it so easy last time. Really I did!
GOOD LUCK to anyone else going for it.

My quit date is Sunday 19th August. I want to stop for the following reasons: My health My Family Stop wasting money which could be put to good use elsewhere I dont think I smell of fags !, but i'm sure i do I never smoke in front of the kids either and never in the house, I go in the garden etc. I think I will find it most hard when I see my friends as alot of them smoke too, also when i have a few drinks cause i really like a ciggy then too. I am going to try hard and will keep you all updated and be brutally honest if i've had one. My aim is to be smoke free totally by the time we meet up for the christmas bash. Good Luck Vik and Janet We can support each other, anyone else gonna try to quit with us ?? I might have to join the fatties of the forum though cause i'm sure i will substitute ciggys for bars of chocolate every time i fancy a cig....lol xxx

Hope you all do really well
Susan yes you have to give up before we meet - you will be sharing a room with a non - smoker so I will know if you have a crafty smoke - none smokers can smell it a mile off
Good luck everyone
Angel xx

It hasn't worked out like that at the moment - my quit date is now Monday 10/9 and the kids are on my back.
Wishing you all luck for those who are packing up.
