No more smoking!
 

First 24 hours are done.
I woke up and took a buprophrin (sp?) and on the way to work had a huge craving, so i said fuck it, went to walgreens and got a pack of the patch. So far its been working great, just gonna take it a day at a time and finally get rid of this damn habit.
Plus gotta save money for the highly possible move back to the land of ice and snow (may '09)

Congrats on quitting, good call and stick with it.

Ohz noz at moving back! haha

Re: No more smoking!
 

Yeah good job with quitting. Its well worth it. I need to jump on that bus now!

Re: No more smoking!
 

I've been trying to quit for a while. I've been told I'm an asshole without a cigarette though. So yeah....

I'm fine on the weekends, maybe 5 smokes for 3 days, but then work comes around, 1 smoke every 2 hours! I notice how big of a piece of shit my body is now too, I walk up a hill and I'm about to die! WTF!? Quitting smoking-wagon here I come.

I've been chewing the gum.. I hated it the first few times I tried to quit with it but its finally growing on me.

Re: No more smoking!
 

Good luck with it, I have a stack of chantix thats going to hopefully do the trick for me. Just waiting for when I can take it serious.

Re: No more smoking!
 

I've been thinking about moving away from Minnesota at that same time. What a coincidence! ;)

Re: No more smoking!
 

I was gonna take chantix but i have been reading some crazy stuff online about that. and i would understand if it was a couple people but damn its pretty much 90% of the people.
A lot of the people expirence crazy dreams, There was a couple cases where the person went nuts and strangled his wife or something then snapped out of it and didnt know what was happening.

^^ Sounds like some good shit. Hahaha

Re: No more smoking!
 

Ive found that the patch really does help. I just got the walgreens one. and i havent had a smoke for 3 days now.
The cravings are sometimes hard but they arent as bad as they would be if i quit without the patch. (been there done that).
I just keep myself busy and i dont really even think about it.

Re: No more smoking!
 

It is always nice to see that people are giving in effort to quit smoking. My dad died from smoking 7 or 8 years ago when I was only in 8th grade so I have hated cigarettes ever since. Good job and keep it up!

Re: No more smoking!
 

Good thing I don’t smoke...

I have never really understood of the point of it... except for the fact it's a waste of money.. lol

Re: No more smoking!
 

Just take it one day at a time and you'll be fine. It will be hard, but you can get through it. I quit almost 2.5 years ago and it's the single best thing I have ever done for myself.

Re: No more smoking!
 

Just remember how shitty your gonna feel if you do have a cig, quitting is hard but well worth it

Re: No more smoking!
 

Now I won't get that bad taste in my mouth when we makeout Tom!!!

Re: No more smoking!
 

Even though you made it through without rehab, here you go.

I just had to put this on here. It's odd...

Re: No more smoking!
 

DUDE! That errr... chick... .. um yeah thats scary.

Re: No more smoking!
 

Now if 311evo only had the will to do this same thing haha. Congrats Tom and good luck with quitting!

Re: No more smoking!
 

Good job so far and good luck to keep it going. I stopped smoking before I got hooked in high school. I just have a cigar a couple times a month now.

I just wish my dad would quit. He's been smoking since he was 15, and while I was little he was smoking close to 3 packs a day for more than a few years.

Sucks when people think you smoke heavily cause you live with people who do.

Re: No more smoking!
 

Yeah mainly the point to me not smoking was for my son. And plus a couple times i would come in from having and smoke and i would get a clear whiff of what it smelled like and said to myself "Damn is this really what everyone else is smelling. I feel bad for my girlfriend now. (she doesnt smoke)
BTW still no smoking. the patch really works wonders. Although today i forgot it before i went to work. so ill have to put it on when i go home for lunch.
