    I'm on day 3. I feel great and just putting the cravings out of my head. I've also given up coffee and alcohol and its really made a difference.

    Well it's been just over 6 months since the heart attack...

    And not 1 cig since 9/30/11

    Longest I have gone without since I started...

    Amazing what a ball of flame in your chest can do for motivation :lol:


    :oops: I feel guilty I let you bum a smoke from me at Alpine...

    Thanks man. Love the new avatar. You too RKCNDY. I was never a big time smoker (max prob 10 per day, most days 2-3), but I was/am addicted. One day at a time.

    that's me...I smoke when I go out to be social with people...This weekend, I probably smoked an entire pack of smokes, I haven't had a smoke since Monday. prob won't smoke again until this weekend...but that's only if we go out. I don't really crave it. I just hate looking like a nerd with the DD drink in my hand.

    Wow, I guess I have some reading to do!

    I am curious as to the duration of the withdrawal that people experienced while quitting. Obviously this will vary from person to person.

    I'm on Day 4. I got through my first day of work without any problems, but cannot at this time guarantee the safety of my roommate.

    I haven't had a cig in 5 weeks, but will admit to the clove use. I hope to slow that down once my summer classes end. Hoping to be done with all smoking except fun things by the end of the summer.

    I will also say no more 2 diet Mountain Dews a day are also a part of my move toward better health. I do drink tea if I need a kick but it's just that, water, homemade juicer juice, and beer...down 11 lbs from it too.
