129 days without tobacco.

[panader0]

I'm 68 and smoked for over 50 years, Camels, Lucky Strikes, Pall Mall,
anything that had no filter. In the past few years I cut it down to 4 or 5 a day.
I have to admit that I miss it, especially in the early morning and after dinner.

5. Good for you.

6. 38 for me. And still, I would like the cig as much now as I did 38 days ago.

I do not want it any less.

I do not think it is going to get any better. But, it is simply one of those things we say no to.

I do like the money part of it. Oh, and no coughing. And I walk, a lot, hills and fast.

Congrats. Keep it strong.

11. Man, that's really tough.

I've been just the opposite. Never want one, don't like the smell. The fact that you're still wanting it and still overcoming your urges just makes you that much more amazing.

[Wintryjade]

12. Aw, you are nice. Thank you.

Are you saying you were a smoker, quit and never want one, and do not like the smell? I want to be you.

I walk past people smoking, smell it, and suck in the air. Thank them and walk away, lol.

7. It is the

One of the best things you will ever do take it from me it will get better as you start to feel better physically. I was like you just take it one day at a time.

8. I quit on groundhog's day

Because I had quit so often that I had to make the "It's groundhog's day!" joke

wasn't counting, so I had to figure it out - 274 days since I smoked.

I still smoke in my dreams and I wake up hoping my wife isn't angry at me.

I was a non-filter guy as well for 30+ years handg in there Panader0

10. SUPER!! I remember how hard it was.

You should be so proud of yourself. I promise it gets easier. Reward yourself along the way.

[Totally Tunsie]

13. You'll look better, smell better, feel better, and have more $$$ in your pocket!

Congratulations!

14. Congrats

All I do is lozenges myself. I also quit cigarettes.

[Yonnie3]

15. Great!

You are 80 days ahead of me. I'm of similar age and smoking habits. I've stopped several times for more than a month, but always started up again. I'm determined this is it for me; I'm done with smokes period.

It is tough at times. I am around a smoker.

[rurallib]

17. keep it up - we are cheering for you

I hope everybody checks back @ the end of the year to tell us they are still off the weed.

[Wintryjade]

18. Weed?

That is a whole different story.

[rurallib]

19. never thought of the other meaning when I posted

I am so freaking old ...................

[Yonnie3]

20. The meaning was obvious from the context.

The evil weed, tobacco.

[Wintryjade]

22. I was playing.

[IrishEyes]

21. Good job! You can do it.

[ooky]

23. You are home free. Just one more thing to do.

Never smoke another one. Not even one.

That is what it took for me. I once quit for four months and then bummed one and was going to smoke just that one. Which led to another one. And another one. Then one pack. Seven years later I quit for good.
