Stopped smoking today.

[rocker]

congrats.i smoked for about 18 yrs.and the last 4-5 i was a 2 pack a day smoker.

my wife and son were always on me to stop.then one day my son told me he didn't want me to die.when worded like that,quitting was easy.i honestly waited 4 days after that was said.got my head in a quitting mindset.it was right b4 memorial day 2007.i went to a party on sunday b4 memorial day.drank, smoked as usual.on memorial day i had 4 cigarettes.and since then not another one.never bummed any of anyone,never took a puff from anyone,and stopped then and there from buying them.thats the trick.DON'T BUY THEM and they won't be around.if u can see them you will want one.

now i have a feel much better.more money in my pocket and for my kids.

good luck

Thanks, kids have been after me for years now, and my mother. The last year or so I've been smoking more and more so..... I got enough. Congrats to you.

Going on eight years now. You stopped today. When you wake up tomorow stop for just tomorrow. Tell yourself you just have to make it through today and tomorrow you can smoke. Then keep doing it this way.

I'm trying.

wise choice! i quit 4 1/2 years ago after 10 years of smoking which in the last year i was around 2 packs a day, that's when i knew enough was enough.

you'll be amazed at how much better things smell (you, your clothes and hair included) and taste after a while of not smoking.

Have been smoking for 24 years so its going to be hard but I'll handle it.

Stay strong man!!!!!!! The habbit of smoking is very hard to break as is the addiction, change your routine all together. Good luck!!

Thanks.

 

[rocker]

good luck, first time you drink will be a real test

Thanks, there's a big party coming soon but I'll make it.

Good Luck Arild. Tough at first, but easier as time passes. I quit 14 years ago after smoking for 15. It really wasnt that hard for me. I know others that have not been as fortunate. You can do it!

Thanks George, Hope I'll be so good you were.

You have BALLS

I hope my friends had the balls to quit smoking. It's such an annoying addiction for any non-smoker.

I have got BIG BALLS.

As long as you don't lite the first one you'll be OK, your lungs will thank you.

I quit 9 years ago, it's nice to be able to breathe....smoking is offensive & deadly.

You are so right.

Congrats (if you stick with it !). More money for gear

Thanks Gary, have been smoking alot so if I save it all I will have a Wizard soon.

I quite 31 years ago ..... watching how it effected the health and death of several family members and friends is pretty scary. Most habits are not near as unhealthy as smoking cigarettes.

True, thats why I'm stopping now!!!

Kjør på, Arild!

100 pakker sigg er ca 7000,-
400 pakker er en Diezel...

Det er ett år og tre måneder, ca, om du røkte like mye som jeg gjorde.
Fy faen!!

Getchyer commie gobbledygook outta here!

We will send some VIKINGS for ya.

 

[rocker]

Thanks to you all. It was great to answer you all one by one this morning, kept me away from smoking.

Good for you, I have been smoke free for 3 years now.

Have been smoking for 24 years so its going to be hard but I'll handle it.

take the cash you would have bought your weekly supply of cigarettes with, sock it away and think of all the great gear you'll be able to afford in a year's time. My ol lady is at about a pack and a half a day...that equates to a used Diezel Herbert AND a used Suhr Modern...or keep smoking and adding to that growing yet unnoticable spot on your lung...

LOL, I just saw this

I'll translate it:

Do it, Arild!
100 packs of cigs are 7000,- NOK
400 packs are a Diezel.
That's about a year and three months, if you smoked as much as me.
Damn!
