I am going to quit smoking.

[Tuesday Afternoon]

at what point in time does that this become a False statement?

or

Is it forever to remain a True statement?

[pokerfan]

1. It is always a true statement

because one day, you will quit for good.

[Tuesday Afternoon]

9. no quailifiers needed....?

meh, I tend to call bullshit on it. The person that says it to me, I always come back with "in my lifetime?"

[pokerfan]

15. I was being ironical

:hi:

2. I quit last November. I still crave, I hate the craving, but at least I don't say I'm going to quit

anymore.

I say I don't smoke.

The cravings are there though still, been eating a lot of pistachios.

Good luck if you're trying to quit, you can do it, millions do!


:P

3. Probably tomorrow. Yea, tomorrow.

4. When I knew that I was (ahem) "almost ready" to quit smoking...

.
.
.
...as an extra incentive, I stopped buying cigarettes by the carton (they were
about $20 a carton then) and started buying them by the much more expensive
per-pack price (about $3 - $3.50, I think).
.
.
.
I spent that extra money for TWO FULL YEARS before I finally said, "Today."
.
.
.
Three packs-a-day. Cold turkey. I haven't smoked since 1998.
.
.
.
.
.
But you HAVE to be ready.

5. either you quit or you die, which makes you quit

ergo, always a true statement.

[trof]

17. True. And you die whether you quit or not.

:-)

6. Hey, just so ya know, I do not smoke. Someone else made this statement

to me...for many years they have said this.

I tend to think of it as so much bullshit at this point.

7. Maybe you should quit quitting smoking

:shrug:

If you are trying to quit - good luck, it's the toughest thing you'll ever do but the results are rewarding

8. please see above post #6 ---

I quit smoking tobacco 10 years ago and, actually for me, it was not that hard. :shrug:

Sometimes, watching an old black and white movie, I get the urge but, I no longer hang out with people that smoke so, I am rarely tempted.

The smell of tobacco, I like.

The smell left behind --- not so much.

[LynneSin]

10. 10 years ago means your lungs are like those of a non-smoker

:D

Sorry, didn't read the entire thread

*hangs head in shame*

11. is OK

Best of luck.

13. I know someone who told me this two months ago while smoking a cigarette

The guy is a total burn-out and this is very indicative of his overall pattern, but he said "I'm going to quit smoking" and two months later he smokes like a muthaeffin CHIMNEY.

:-)

14. I'm ready to quit, again....

I quit from feb of 2006 until summer of 2008.

19. My hypnotist told me once...

You can wuit smoking many times but only STOP smoking once.
