I haven't smoked a cigarette in 5 days!

I Quit 8 months ago...feel great. I smoked for over 30 years.

Quit 11yrs ago. Best thing you will ever do for your self.

no one likes a quitter
ppfft

Congrats to all you quitters!

I'm about to try (again...)

after smoking for 29 years I decided to give up. I actually used the cigarette company executive as a tool to help me give up. There was no way I was going to pay for his next holiday in Aspen !

That was 8 years ago....I will never smoke again

4 days now i've gone without a smoke...feels pretty good, but damn is it hard!

Hang in there.

I'm enjoying one right now... Yep took all my stress away. Now fire one up before your body starts doing something healthy. Who wants to live in this shit hole world forever! If you enjoyed it, do it.

One day soon you will wake up and go through your entire day without even thinking about cigarets and it comes around sooner than you would thin. Quit 8 years ago ... you will never regret quiting smoking

I finally ordered one of those e-cigs just today. I know, it's still nicotine, but everyone who writes about them say they're great. No tar, additives, smoke, just vapor. So, as much as I want to be a non-smoker, I haven't had much luck so I figure if I can at least get rid of the smoke, I'll be better off.

They say you don't get any smelly shit like your breath, clothes, no stinkin' ashtrays. Anyway, really glad to hear of all those that quit. I hope to be among you eventually. But I am looking forward to being a "vaper", instead of a smoker.

thanks, mate

Congrats dude. Your lungs and heart have been healing for 5 days.

Keep it up bud and fall back.

21 days and no cigs for me. feeling better already.

Congrats!!! glad to hear about anyone leaving those things on the shelf!

i'll have my 5 year anniversary this month, can't stand the smell of all those additives nowadays

not to mention that they cost too damn much

I quit smoking squares 6 months ago.
Good on you!
Now hold on while I hit this blunt...

I quit 14 years ago. It DOESN'T get any easier. (I dreamed of smoking for several years after. I feel like it I could lite one up any day, and it would just be natural.) What keeps me clean is this....

I have always repeated to myself, "No one has EVER died from NOT having a cigarette. But thousands have died from starting with one"

I have stayed strong for many years... So can you.

I quit 2 years ago and am now "Vaping". I'm using the GLV2 with a 510 high resistance cartomizer and some 18mg Cinna-Rollz juice from Digitalciggz....Good stuff.

Keep on Vaping!

Keep it up OP! I was a heavy smoker for 23 years, quit cold turkey 3 months ago. You can do it! The best reward is gaining the solid conviction that you are truly the master of your flesh. I gained a few pounds the first month but have lost them completely now. You'll be so proud of you!

Way to go OP. Smokers are persecuted, it's a tough
addiction to get over. I don't think their intent is
to blow smoke in anyone's face.

God bless you all.

Good for you OP, keep up the good work....if you can resist for few more days you will quit for good, the first week is the worst after that is walk in the park...been there...done that

I haven't smoked a cigarette in 39 years. I just never started.
Congrats though on your success.

Well see that doesnt do it right because you see if I didnt pay for smokes.
I would still have money stolen from me by politicians and that really can not go away by giving up anything.

I haven't had a cigarette in 5 days. I feel better but am very edgy. Any suggestions. [googlevid][youtube][liveleak]

i just turned 30.. iv been smoking for about 18 years now.. im broke for another couple of weeks so unless i go out and find a way of making money im gonna have to try and quit.. so due to circumstance im gonna try cold turkey and see how i go.. the bad thing is for about the last 6 or 7 years iv been smoking about 20-30 a day unless i was incarcerated.. so i just gotta try and it should be fine..

don't go back now. stay clean.

Try to do some mild exercise, more if you can tolerate it. A lot of people gain weight because they feel nervous and need to do something. Your lungs can be in bad shape and so you get breathe easily after quitting.

Since a lot of times people take a smoke break and do it socially, try to find some social activity to do to fill in that time, if that was your practice.

If you feel like you'll return to smoking, try chewing rubber bands. If you light up after chewing rubber bands, it creates intense nausea. It's good aversion therapy.

Most people will begin to smoke again at some point, but if you work with a group, there's a much better chance of kicking it longer.

If you must smoke, try smoking small amounts as a treat by using a organicly grown tobacco by a source that puts no additives in it. The tobacco people smoked on the frontier is nothing like the rot that the corporations get you to buy.

In time your tastebuds renew themselves now that you're not ruining them with the smoke inhalation. You're going to experience better flavors and a sense of smell too since your olfaction is not overwhelmed. This will tend to increase appetite so try to eat sensibly, maybe the Paleo diet if you can.

Smoking coats the alveoli of the lungs, and so your oxygen in the blood is lower. Remarkably your health will recover some, and your endurance. You may find yourself coughing up coated phlegm since dust cells are trying to sweep away the tobacco coating. Don't be alarmed, be relieved.

Because your sense of smell will get better, little things like the clean smell of a woman fresh from the shower will make you insanely horny. Things like the wonderful smell of a just peeled orange will be more noticeable too.

Good for you for quitting!

Now you can run again.

In two weeks you will almost quadruple your running speed, and you will regain that sexy tan instead of death pale.

Good luck.

I quit once, but I have anger issues so my battle isnt with cigarettes.
