    5 Days.........

    Its been 5 days so far and I'm doing good and going strong believe it or not. Haven't been close to a slip or anything which is surprising to myself. This will be the 10th or so time I have tried this which is kinda sad but hey, better late then never I know many have probably figured out what I am talking about by now, but a little suspense never hurt anyone So if you haven't figured it out, I'll tell you............I am quiting smoking I smoked for 9 years about a average of a pack a day and now hopefully nothing ever again

    wouldn't want to fight them!

    Me: That is why no one will remember your name!

    I'm doing it cold turkey if anyone wants to know. I am very surprised how easy it has been so far but I know there will be a tough rough patch sooner or later. Only time will tell

    Awesome!! Congrats!! Its all psychological now, cuz your body doesnt physically need it anymore; after 3 days you start to make your own and your nicotine receptors arent blocked or inhibited anymore I am very proud

    You know what may help, add up how much it cost you per month/year.

    good luck and stay strong, i quit smoking 3 months ago i think, i quit counting after the second month, i used the patch for the first 6 weeks to help, even now i still have strong urges from time to time especially when im having a rough day, but the urges are definately hitting me less and less over time

    Welcome to the new world of breathing, stamina, flavor, longer life and saved money! People say they gain weight when they quit and use it as an excuse to keep smoking.... wanna know why they gain weight? All those taste buds that have been burned off grow back after a few days and food magically tastes better! Try and control yourself lol! You've got a large support group right here and I'm sure more than a few have gone through quitting themselves. don't be shy and let them help you through any "rough spots" Best of luck!

    Same, but it was about 8 years ago.


    Just don't drink for a few weeks until you are over it. That was the hardest time for me, when I would drink.

    I was gonna say the same thing about the drinking.

    I quit about 3 years ago. Up until this last year when I would drink I would want one.

    Good luck man

    There will be. But, hang in there. It's so worth it!! I smoked for 28 years and over a pack a day. I quit on 1/2/07 and haven't had not one cigarette since. The difference is amazing.

    It's tough for sure. But, you can do it. If I can, anyone can. Good luck to you

    I quit drinking when I quit smoking. I had too. If I had a drink in one hand, it was only natural for me to have a smoke in the other Now, I never want a drink either. I only drink on special occasions, parties etc...

    The 10 times before that I tried to quit, that is where I failed. As soon as I had a few drinks in me, I wanted a cig. Wed night I made it 8 drinks without one and even in a bar First time EVER!!! I am using that as motivation, but I am going to cut back my drinking until I am at least a month in.


    Oh....and day 6 now
