Way to go!!

I'm so proud for you!!!!!

Great job. Keep it up :thumbup: :-D

Congratulations! You passed your first test, and many more to come. Just remember how proud you were when you jumped over your "first hurddle"

You rock! I know how hard it is. I quit so many times it just wasn't funny. It has been so long now that I can't remember how long it is since I quit. Now my son has started and it is driving me crazy! I told him it was a challenge just to hug him because he stinks!

You go girl!!

I'm so proud of you. Isn't it wonderful knowing you are no longer a slave to those little white sticks? Now - go buy your self some fabric with the money you saved. LOL good job

Congratulations!! I really admire a person who can chuck the habit. I have lost a bother and a sister to cancer related to smoking.
Stay srong.

I am so happy you are being able to achieve YOUR goals. Not important what others think but being able to stay true to self and have the strengh to say no. YOU CAN DO ANYTHING... Keep up the good work you have started. :)

I just quit Sunday night . I'm using patches

2 years smoke free this month! Took many tries, but it is so worth it. I have gotten to the point where the smell turns me off. And I don,t miss the morning hackers caugh! I just wish I could get my SIL to quit. She just isn't ready. Keep up the good work!

Good for you, keep it up and soon the smell of smoke on your clothes will be discusting.:)

Wonderful! Congratulations!

Great job!! Be very proud of yourself and now you have the worst part behind you.

It has 1 year and 4 months for me and I feel so great about the freedom it has given me.

Good for you. You will never be sorry for this and should be very proud. It isn't easy, I know!

look at all the ex-smokers cheering you on! it's a very big deal and a huge challenge. you're doing it. and you can see that others have made it through too. don't doubt yourself. you can do this. you ARE DOING this! you are succeeding! congratulations! hardest thing i've ever done was visit my best friend smoking pal for a week. i took lots of embroidery and crewel kits, and even did two of hers! i was on fire and NOT smokin'. lol! but you are smokin' hot! you go!!!

I quit smoking over 40 years ago - was up to 3 packs a day. When I first quit it was hour by hour without a cigarette. Then it was all morning followed by all afternoon followed by all evening. Small steps at a time. Don't think too far ahead - just plan a short time ahead. Eventually it was all day and then all week. I agree that after awhile I too became disgusted with the smell and can't understand why those around me put up with it. It's not easy - I give you all kinds of credit for trying. DON'T GIVE UP!!!

I'm so proud of you! I've been smoke-free since 1986, I know how hard it is to stay away from cigarettes. Keep on trying and soon you will be free.
:thumbup: :thumbup:

Congratulations!!! You can do it. I have been smoke freee for 25 years!!! NO regrets.

I was smoking 3 packs a day Marlboro 100's. I put all the money
that I would've spent on cigarettes in a jar for a year and it came to almost $400!

My dear friends, I am still on track. Not missing the cigarettes as much as I thought. Even thinking of sneaking one has diminished tremendously. And I have so much more energy and time too. All the time I spent smoking is now going to better things like walking, calling friends, reading, and, oh, yes, quilting!
A great big HUGE thank you to all of your support and stories. I know I can do it!

Soon you will be breathing so much better and the smoker's cough will be a thing of the past. :-D I'm so proud of you!

I quit 14 yrs ago...know what you are facing. It was the hardest thing I ever had to do. I quit cold turkey...had a bladder infection first time in life. When I went to Dr she said it was what cancer of the bladder felt like...quit that day only out of fear. My addictive personality is such I knew I could never have "just one drag" and haven't. You are doing well to fill your time with positive substitutions. For me...the hardest was the oral fixation and what to do with my hands. Keep trying every moment and before you know it you'll find it hard to believe you ever once smoked.
