my last cigarette. So far so good.

hey frisbee. i stopped about a year ago. i stopped counting after 3 months.
haven't has one since. i tried many many many times before and failed.

things i have learnt thus far that i will share with you. they are stupid &
simple but we sometimes forget.

- it's a lot easier not to smoke when you don't hang out with other
smokers.
- it's a lot easier not to smoke when you don't go out to bar's.
- you may lose your "smoker" friends! but then, would you have been hangin
around with them in the first place if you didn't smoke? would they be
hangin around with you if you weren't a smoker in the first place?

good luck,
ry

A little over two weeks for me. First threee days were the
toughest. Still get cravings,...during a cup of
coffee....after sex..... etc. Will say this, it makes the
old timber a lot more limber.

Hey, it happens. Frequently there is even a woman
involved. There is much to be said for the megabite and
the ramdrive position.

Keep goin' Fris.

Your excuses are absolutely absurd. He might as well
isolate himself from the world in order to quit. There
will be situations where people will be smoking and he may
not have the luxury of just up and leaving. He'll really
know that he's kicked the habit when others don't have to
modify their lifestyles and he still is not affected by it.

Now, with all that said, the laws in California being what
they are, you would have to be looking for a smoker in
order to be around them. But, that's not true in every
state.

Actually most smoking cessation products advise avoiding situations where
smoking is observed or practiced by the quitter. IE. avoid bars, smoking
areas, etc. They advise avoiding these situations until you ARE strong
enough to be in the same room with smokers. I have never asked anyone to
change their lifestyle just because I am quitting smoking. I just avoid the
situations where I would be tempted to smoke. The only people who may be
asked to change would be family members who smoke... and if they support
you, they will not mind making a few changes to provide you that support...
such as going outside to smoke or not smoking in the car with you, etc.
