Lost count on my attempts to quit, but am getting better each time.

New Years Day seems to be a good day as I am goal oriented by nature.

Had it kicked for 7 months last year before slipping back.

This time I have a work paid for program including a coach as well as a 5 year old daughter really pushing me so I believe I am now an ex cigarretee smoker.

Found this cool calculator to show how pathetic my habit has been.

You haven't killed the coach yet have you?

Doing well.

The coach was supposed to call on my target quit date, 1-1-11, but never did.

At least he followed through with the free nicotine gum and sent enough for a small army.

He sounded like he was young and reading from a script anyway.

Proud to report I haven't had one cigarette in 2011.

This is after 30 years of smoking them.
