Default Giving up smoking.

OK guys I'm doing it I on my first day cigarette free, I did bring some nic. gum with me but haven't used any yet. Pray for those around me, oh and me too. This is by far a hard addiction to quit but well worth the effort.

I quit cold turkey 13 years ago. Going from 2 packs a day to none was hard but i made it. didn't have the patch or pills or gum . when i wanted a smoke i grabbed a hot cinnamon toothpick instead. 2 weeks later still no smokes and started cutting back on the toothpicks. 5 weeks no smokes and no toothpicks.

The bad part is that it's 5oclock on Saturday............nothin can stop whats about to happen..........I don't know what causes it, but every week a glass with little cubes and a pretty smoke brown liquid labeled (jack) attaches itself to my hand.........the only thing that helps me get through it is the smoking..............ugh

The only thing i miss about smoking is in the morning when i wake up... I like to have one for the "bathroom Influence".... Now it takes me 2 or 3 hours to get things going, and the cramp usually hits me when im fishing, where before i would just burn me one and I was ready... I used to always say that the best "#2 enhancer" is a cigerette and a coffee in the morning.....

I started smoking when i was 15, about the time id turn 24 waking up in the morning hacking up a lung was not cool. it was time for a change, i quit by making my self sick of it and change my habits. As of right now it been 10 years smoke free. I also help my wife do the same, she is now 1 year smoke free.


Hey Rob and Dink, if you need a sponsor let me know.
