Quitting cigs... again... - Page 2

kugie · 08-01-2011, 08:47 AM

I stopped smoking dec 18th of 09.
I had quit several times before with going back a month two months and even a year and a half later at one point.

But this time was different.
I did not have the uncontrollable urge to have a cigarette
I need a cigarette didn't happen that often although it still does happen even 20 months later. But now it passes.
And I did it for me, I made the decision to stop not work saying I can't smoke in the truck not my friends who quit and gave me **** and I didn't do it for my Family although they were a factor.
but the decision was mine and I think after realizing that It made stopping allot easier.

Still going strong! And the cravings have pretty much disappeared.

Thanks for the support, guys

That is AWESOME news Peter! Great job and congratulations for sticking with it.

How are you feeling health wise? Have you got your taste buds and smell back? LOL

WTG Peter...

Keep it up.

Another month down, and still going strong!

My brother and I were installing a kitchen a couple weeks ago. He lit up a cigarette, and it actually stunk. Getting easier for sure!

Nice! Keep it up, man.

I quit 3 years ago after smoking for over 20 years. There are still times when they smell good, not good enough for me to pick one up, but I'm not sure that will ever go away. Most of the time, I feel indifferent about them.
My wife still smokes and she asked me if smoking cigars makes me want a cigarette. I told her for me, it's a completely different experience.
Good luck to you and stay strong bro!
