I'm on day four now.

So far so good. I'm going a little nuts, but I always do.

Good for you!! cinnamon sticks might help, but they don't taste so great. With me it's the habit (hand to mouth), so I'm stocking up on alcohol...

Congrates keep it that way one day to a time. It is not easy but it can be done. I started in 1968 and quit 12 years 10 months 27 days ago.

Keep up the good work, you can do it!

It's worth a try.

The only problem i had when i quit was i had the munchies all the time. Sort of like back in the 60's when ( oops so i have been told ) smoking pot.

I think i remember the 60's

Like Jimi Hendrix said "of all the things I've lost, I miss my mind the most".

My issue is now with the gum. I lost a filling last night. Ever had the nicotine gum sit on a gaping cavity?

It's no good.

Doing fine, keep it up.

I had my last cigarette on April 29th. used the nicotine lozenges and I could not believe that it wasn't that bad. I tried many other times and usually started back up after a couple of weeks. I have 3 other friend that have quit using the lozenges since then all with good luck. They said if I could do it so could they. I was a 3 pack a day smoker and had been smoking for 40 years.

Shooter · Dec 10, 2012

I was back at 2 packs a day. I was starting to cough up blood again and I'm happy I've quit, but I very much miss it. Especially when the kid is screaming at 3am.

Balota · Dec 11, 2012

Coughing up blood seems like a pretty good reason to quit! Hang in there!

Shooter · Dec 11, 2012

Well it was traces of blood, it was the reason I switched to filters oh so long ago.

LT2108 · Dec 21, 2012

Keep up the good work Austin! That's great news, how long has it been now?

Balota · Dec 30, 2012

Hope Austin and Opaww are both doing well with quitting smoking. Y'all have a Happy New Year!

artbrownsr · Dec 30, 2012

+1 on wish for success, AND on a Happy New Year!

Shooter · Jan 3, 2013

So far so good.

I'm getting cravings, but they are event related.

Colt45 · Jan 3, 2013

Last Friday was my last cigarette as well, wife bought me a E-GO (electronic cigarette) and so far so good! I get the nicotine without the bad side affects and haven't climbed the walls or try to strangle anyone at work YET!
