Better your Dentist than your Cardiologist or Oncologist.
You can do it!!

Someone e-mail me a marlboro light...and one match..

waitin.............................................................................

But Don't Do It Man......
You've come too far to look back, your a non-smoker now.

nooooooooooooooooo

*runs in slow motion and dives, grabbing the offending cigarette and matchbox before space can get to it*

lol he cannot have it, I already told him when he asked me to fax him some lol

Space, how's it goin buddy ? U doin ok over there ? Let me know so I can badger U to keep at it! U can do it!

I have begun my mission! I am keeping a "smoke journal" lol thought of it last night when I was counting how many I had yesterday (7)
I have decided to cut back first and see how I go, noting in my journal how many I have and trying to never exceed 10 to start with, once I get down to about 5 a day I will then set a new goal and and gradually (hopefully) get it down to 0

I don't want to stress myself about it and baby knows to support me but not to become a cheerleader bout it or anything (cause I expect to be a lil irritable and I don't wanna hafta hurt him in any way lol)

wish me luck!

That may be one of my screen's wallpaper for a while.
I can almost smell the fresh air filling my lungs as I imagine slowly walking along surrounded by the woods.

Any idea what kind of bird this is.

TAken at my family home, on the east coast..

OK, folks - I'm in!

I haven't finished reading every post in this thread, as is generally my rule before posting but, I need to get on board because TOMORROW is my Quit Date!

My situation is a bit different than most (and all that I've read) because I do not smoke cigarettes - tried a few in my teen years and never will, again. I think cigarettes are disgusting!

I am a fairly heavy cigar smoker. I never smoke the cheap ones, either. My cigar habit has been costing me about $3,000/year! And, they stink up my car, my clothes, etc. My wife has never asked me to stop but she complains all the time about how bad I smell when I smoke.

So, I'm going cold turkey. I know I can do it because I had to quit once before for about 3 months. The problem with that "quit attempt" was that I never wanted to quit - I was forced to quit against my will. I couldn't wait for the day I could start, again!

I love a good cigar! I truly do! But, I want to get back to the days when I would have a fine cigar on special occaisions with my buds. One cigar a month is fine. Three per day is what I need to stop!

So, I really appreciate this thread and I'll take all the help and encouragement I can get.

But, tonight, I'm going to smoke a very fine, very special fine cigar with an excellent port wine and make it a kind of ceremony.

welcome aboard Al!

Can I call you Snuffy?



On another note..

I went to the doc today, for a follow up..

My O2 level is up, from 91, to 94..which is good to see.
MY BP is back to normal....slightly high normal... but below last week..

And somehow, I lost 2 pounds...from 206 to 204...must have been all that pacing..!
