Quit smoking, that is... (you naughty!) Sign up here. No promises, just the desire to try. I'm starting right now. I'll let you know... I feel like crap, had pneumonia last fall and can feel that same ole congestion burbling up again. So now is the time. Anyone? Anyone? Peace .. elaine67 |

You can do it! for you! and for your daughters sake!!!!! second hand is no good for her,( and I know you go outside...but...) plus it will keep you around that much longer too! once you make up your mind that you want to..it'll come much easier. best of luck, mark. once an oldhoglover, always an oldhoglover!

Hi CP, nice to see you. I'm so glad I posted about this... your comment is the inspiration I need. So far...well... the past few hours I mean, so good. I'm looking forward to the extra cash, too. They're nearly $7 a pack here in NY. egads. Glad I quit before that price went up. Again, goodluck. Take it one day at a time...no, lol take it one hour at a time. I think you're gonna kick it. I eat freezies when I get a craving...soon I'm gonna have to find a new vice or my teeth are going to fall out from the sugar. I guess no matter what we get hooked on, it's bad for you, lol.

Smokes were pressing the $12 mark when I quit a year ago. I would love to say I feel better, but well we know that is a lie...lmao. However here are some truths of the matter, I look better, smell better, sex is better, food tastes awesome, my libido is higher than high...did I mention that I like sex now that I quit smoking? Oh and by the way, getting laid is like A M A Z I N G now that I don't smoke. K hope that cryptic message is not too cryptic for ya. Good luck baby girl..I am all over the cheerleading squad for you and all the bloggy buddies that join in the quit fest. Soultrader you wanna shake a pom pom with me? Michelle

I quit from March to May, then had a bit of a relapse. I didn't buy a pack today, so when the one I've got open is out, I'll be done. That means 10 to go. So the fact I'm going to go have one after I post this comment will have me down to 9. Then no more. Ohhh, all that extra money! I do feel a tiny bit sorry for everyone I talk to Monday through about Thursday. I'm always a bit of a jerk when I quit smoking. And yeah, Soul. We're bad! I come home from a run, wait an hour and then smoke a cigarette. How weird is that? Cheers! ![]()

The only smoking I do today is from the passive-smokers..I used to smoke..Would not call me a heavy smoker back then as it took me a week before the park was done..When I got pregnant I smoked my last three cigarettes in one night and never picked up one again.It is going on 4 and half years now,I don't miss it nor do I need it.. It is not an easy task to stop smoking if you have been doing it for years..It takes a strong will and lots of support from friends to help you through..So far I see you have the support from friends now it is your strong will to come forth and just do it.I join them in cheering you on to a smoke free life..Best of luck. It is the truth in man that sets him free.. ![]()

Heyyy !! Just can't believe --- I really found a proper medicine against my chocolate attaks ! Maybe it's also good against other "drugs". Maybe it's only known in the german place because scientists got soo much money to investigate in this common field of complex matter of human metabolism. Maybe the infos is at the time a absolute secret and was actually not spread all over the "suffering" people, cause the pharmacological testings are not finished yet. Why I'm informed is, because I was one member of the human test crew who hat to use it for 8 weeks 5 times a day under extreme medical control. It's hard to believe, but the substance can be purchased relatively easy in Germany. After the testperiod I was really healed of my heavy chocolate attacks... are you all curious now about the new panacea ???? I will share the absolute secret with you, but pleeeeeeeese don't tell it around !!!! They sell it under the name Jellybabies

To stop smoking completely, you have to start cutting down a stick a day gradually.... and you MUST have a reason why you wanted to quit. It's a motivation for you to stop smoking. The reasons can be many things.... you love ur kids etc... and don't want them to follow your example etc.... And you must be strong willed or else your effort go to waste. If you have the urge to smoke, try chewing gums or sweets instead. If you can't control it, then have a stick and start all over again... until you succeed... it depends on YOU and YOU alone to decide...

I know I'm late, as usual. But I know it's Never too late to stop smoking. I was a heavy smokers (if you call 2 packs a day heavy ) Had to give it up because it nearly killed me. It's those cheap ciggies that did it. Was trying to safe a few bucks and ended up coughing like mad. You know what poison they put in that tobacco mix? I'm glad I gave it up as my home smells nice and fresh now. And I don't have to shampoo my hair every day. Not to mention the money I safe. Keep it up dear. I know it's easier said than done, but I know you can do it ![]() It's nice to be insane when No one is looking
