    Default Kicked The Habit...

    After smoking for whats gotta be 45 years I finally tried one of those New Years Resolutions , and quite the Cigarettes !!!! It's been a whole week and I haven't had one smoke. Now I'm afraid to try due to it might make me pass out. Let me tell you, I can now smell someone smoking in a car a half mile away!!!
    Anyway, Damn I'm already adding up the money I'm saving....

    Good job. I'm on about 6 months of being smoke free myself. I spent about 30 dollars a week on smokes so I've saved about 720 dollars so far. And, since I don't smoke or am afraid I will start again if I drink at a bar, I've pretty much quit hitting the bar as well. So that is even more of a savings.

    One bit of advice. When that little voice in your head says "just one won't hurt" IGNORE IT. Just one leads to just another and just another and just a pack etc....

    Congrads. I got no problem with people who want to smoke but I quit 17 years ago after some scares. You stick with it and you will be happy with the results. Only piece of advise I can give is watch you eating habits. You will start to eat alot more and you do not want that. I went from 175 to 285 in a year and it has takem me 6 years to get back under 230

    Just an update......... Still smoke free. Although the urge is still there, especially when I get stressed, but I find it easier to fight the craving for a smoke!!!
    Thanks for your words of support.
