    i quit smoking like a year and half ago, congrats to any(all) of you that are still with it, its hard and you will still think about it from time to time in the future. I took the patch but didnt read the instructions, so i didnt know that you were supposed to do the first step for like 5 weeks, the second for like 3 weeks and the 3rd for one week, i just did each one for a week and that was it. i got sick of having them ripped off me every night anyways. it just proves that its all mind over matter anyways, stick with it. its worth it.
    {if (work != 0) {
    work = work + 1;
    sleep = sleep - work * 10;}
    else if (work >= 0) {
    reality.equals(false);
    work = work +1;
    }system("pause");
    return 0;}

    Update from my end. The fiance and I are doing fine. I was at a card game last night with a ton of smoke and now my sinuses are killing me. I guess that's what happens.
    I'll ride the wave where it takes me.

    Yeah did the card game in like week 2 and it made me sick, which is great!

    I hope you guys think this gets easier over time.

    Thanks for that. The sticky patches on my arms and the stains they leave are going to take a long time to dissipate. But, well worth the price.

    Congratulations to you on 1.5 Years!!

    That is an amazing accomplishment and how to replicate.

    Thanks for the words of encouragement.

    Day 1: I had my last smoke last night at about ten and made it last, I tell ya! That last puff was sweet, but I was glad to get it over with in a way, because I know i'll be better off not smoking.
    Hubby's already had about 5 smokes today, and ive had a go at him and told him to atleast keep the packet away from view :mad:

    I really feel like one, but im staying strong, I know you are all barracking for me (thanks BD :D )

    Thank you, I'm going through the same thing as far as our husbands still smoking when we are quitting. I've gotten to the point where I just can't stand the smell of it, like right now I'm in the computer room and this is the room where he shuts the door and smokes away. I automatically smell it when I come here, but I'm getting stronger and it does suck to have to deal with this on top of everything else.

    yellowled24 anytime you need to talk I will be here for you :-) . Your gonna get through this sweetie I just know it :-) .

    lol ((((((hugs for you)))))))
    My god, that almost brought a tear to my eye :o...words cant express how much the words and support mean to me....

    Have told a few people in net land about quitting and no one has been as supportive as you guys here ((((hugs to all)))) Needless to say, its come at a time when I really need an ear and shoulder

    Well, feeling good, almost the end of the day here and even though ive felt like one all day and especially now that ive been drinking....im actually really proud that I havent given into temptation (god knows ive been close!!!)

    Thankyou everyone!!!! :D

    Hey,

    See If one of us is not around, another brave and successful soul is there to help out :D

    I can't believe we are getting to a month on Thursday! 2 of my kids are born on the 2nd day of the month so it will always be easy to remember (I started on my little girl's 3rd B-day)

    So day 27 will have a hitch as I am going to my friends house where everyone smokes. Not a big deal anymore :)

    Y24, I am soooo happy you got through Day 1. It only gets easier. You have a kindered soul in Hartamh as both of you have husbands who have not smoked! I am lucky that part of making it through is not a burden for me! You two have it MUCH harder. I am thrilled for you guys!

    Let's hear how the world is doing!
