I smoked only a little bit in high school and College. Dipped and chewed tobacco since I was a teen. Played baseball and was always in the outdoors so i wasa exposed to it.
Stopped smoking the cigs in 1992 and hardly have had one since. Maybe a cigar every now & then also.
Stopped the chewing tobacco and snuff "cold turkey" about the time I got married in 02. I was coaching High School baseball and football and man it was hard to quit when I had all my coaching colleagues still doing it in front of me. I haven't had it since then, however.
I'm trying to lose some weight and will probably give up on the snacks and fast food as much as possible for Lent. Already lost 9 pounds in 3 weeks. I'll try to keep it up!!
Good luck to all you others during the lenten season.
