Damn, a friend of mine's birthday Friday and went to a bar and smoked like a pack, first slipup since I started but haven't had one since.
Damn, a friend of mine's birthday Friday and went to a bar and smoked like a pack, first slipup since I started but haven't had one since.
I quit back in June. I just woke up from a long night of partying/drinking and smoking and decided I was done with smoking and haven't touched one since. I have gained about 10 pounds though which I would rather have the extra wieght then smoking. I go to the gym 5 days a week and I' m now able to more cardio then I use to when I would smoke.
The hardest thing for me when I quit was when I would have some beers or go out it was really hard not to smoke because to me thats when a cigarette tastes the best. But I'm over it now and I don't even think about smoking a cig when I drinking now.
You can do man, it just takes allot of will power thas for sure.
spot on mate that is the way to go and you do not miss having a smoke when drinking in fact after 6 months you don't miss them at all.
i didnt go to the gym and put on 3+ stone....
so going to the gym is a must or you open yourself up to all the other threats that come with the extra weight![]()
I quit smoking cancersticks 6x already. The nauseating gum and patch doesn't work for me. Maybe I'll stop smoking when I'm dead.
I'm in good shape though. I just had my ECG and it's normal. I walk + or - 4 miles a day, up and down the hills, stomping tall brushes/poison oaks, carrying 30 lbs of equipments on my shoulder, and no problem. The only thing that I'm worried about is getting bit by a rattler.

The patch only made me nasious and dizzy...The gum was useless as well...Funny how some people can smoke like bandits their whole life and be OK...My Uncle Spider Smokes Pall Mall Non Filters 2pks a day and at 60 has no problems...said he has been smoking since he was 14...go figure

to quit smoking u have to really want to
i enjoyed smoking not the smell or the fact it cud kill me but i enjoyed it and wen i finally felt i didnt wanna smoke no more i quit cold turkey.
i feel for u Daxx and wish u all the luck in the worldxx
It pisses me off how easy some can quit. (we're talking about cigerretts right) the day my wife found out she was preggo with our first she quit right there in the Dr's office and has never smoked since.

Something in her life that had an impact on her like that could have given her supernatural (mental) strength to quit.
I've heard of people who have smoked for years, have TRIED to stop smoking and failed many times in the past, but then find out one day that they have lung cancer, and upon finding that out were able to quit cold turkey no questions asked.
Aww jeez,Im trying to quit right now too
But the "new and improved" Nicorettes flavour lasts for about 9 seconds,and then it goes right back to tasting like an ashtray just like it did the first time I tried
Im still going to try though,I just need to figure out how many Big Reds I need to cram in my jaw to make up for that inevetible,I just licked an ashtray taste
Daxx,
When I turned 17 I started smoking. I used to smoke 1 and half packs a day of Djaurms.
I smoked for 2 years straight daily. Then one day when I went out on a date a girl told me "You smell like ciggarette really bad" (Keep in mind I had showered shaved and all)
The thought of a woman coming near me and thinking my smell was a displeasure kicked me in the nuts that same day when I got home I threw my my pack of Djarums out I threw all my ashtrays, lighters and matches out. Never again have I smoked Djarums/cigarrettes since that day. I do smokeweed every now and then. Honestly Daxx, it wasn't hard for me in the sense that at that time I was fresh out of H.S. and in College and I wanted pussy so if smelling like smoke was gonna stopd some pussy from me then I needed to fix that and I did. So I really didn't struggle as far as wanting them I just did it and never looked back.
Good luck Daxx, and hopefully you find something worth quitting for and you have the will power and mind set to stop completely.
In am getting there...I wish I had quit years ago when I was in school or at that HS age when I was able to without a problem....I am still making headway...Down to 3 a day...The bitch is that morning smoke
...add a cup of coffee and it is like they hold you down to pout it in you I swear....I will kick this sure as hell is hot though...I am at 3 and 2 months ago was at a pack plus a day so
Thanks for the encouragement....
BTW WTF are Djarums lol
