im really lookin 4ward 2 joinin the navy next year but im a bit scared bout the fitness test.
im relatively fit but i do smoke.
is this gonna prove a BIG problem. i smoke bout 10-15 a day.

misssunshine I used to smoke every day then I started cutting down, because I could not just stop like that. These days I only smoke when I go down the pub or when I am at a club. But since I have cut down I feel healthier and training is much easier these days. And when I finally quit I can only imagine how easy life will be without fags.

I regret ever taking up smoking.

I smoke and I passed the PRMC

I did give up for a while during training but started up again because I love them & they love me.
While I was reading it said there were no Physical tests for entrance into the Navy.

They reccomend blokes can do 20 Pressups & 30 Situps.

A Fat kid from my School class got in and he was a big bloke.

Unless I am one of the lucky ones who never got addicted I don’t know, but I decided I didn’t want to smoke a few years back and one day put my fags and lighter in the bin and haven’t smoked since. Why do people find it hard to stop, ( I think its jus a case of people not wanting to) sunshine jus quit!!! it will not only do your health allot of good but think of all the money you will save!!

Thank God Lew.

I thought I was the only person who had ever managed to just not smoke ever again without any form of withdrawal or nicotine patches or plastic pipey things.

I got a cold about 3 and a half years ago while I was on holiday, decided they tasted shite and gave up at the end of that packet and have never fancied one since that day. I go into pubs all the time and Ive never been tempted. Not even when Im p*ssed as you like. Weird.... but good!

Strange how I can give up some things that are truly bad for me and not others eh Loz? know wot I meeen?

Much better for me!
