Get a straw about the same size and cut it to the size of a cigarette. Just breathe through that and it will help. I did it especially when I would drive and smoke.

This morning I was hustling to get the trash together and out to the curb for pickup. While I was at it I got the recycle rounded up and dumped in the bin.

I got a little out of breath from all that but my heart wasn't pounding away and I wasn't dizzy.

Yep, it's paying off.

July 10th, 2007.

Best decision I ever made.

I've since had a nice budget for guns and ammo.

Best trade I ever made.

Merry Christmas everyone!

A terrific accomplishment! You really can do anything! I never had to quit smoking, but if I had I think that I would throw myself a little party after every week that I didn't smoke. Find something that you love and treat yourself too it every Friday afternoon.

Right on schedule! Well done, sir. Keep it up.

When you reach 30 days or so, you'll be over about 90%-95% of it, and after a couple of months, you'll rarely ever have any kind of nicotine craving. After about 6 months or so, you won't remember what a nicotine craving even felt like.
How does your food taste? :lol:

My last cigarette was Christmas Eve 2006...

Wow, almost 9 years.

if I can do, you can too... I just needed the proper button pushed. My wife asked if I wanted to be around to see our youngest daughter graduate High School...
