May I just ask, what made you ex-smokers start smoking in the first place? To me it just seems like an incredibly stupid thing to do.
 
Well done DV :038:

I gave up 40 Marlboro a day (with the patches) in January 2000. I'm looking forward to 10 smoke free years in Jan.

Best move I ever made.

Good luck

two packs a day = £10 a day...10*365*10=£36,500 saved

:icon_eek:

SJN spent the lot he saved on strong beer and cheap women ..... or was it cheap beer and strong women....:102:

For me it was a combination of peer pressure and wanting to appear 'cool' and 'grown-up'.

Unbelievable now, but back then............
 
Method you can try.

Empty an ashtray into a glass jar pour in boiling water. After a fag or a feeling of craving open the jar have a good sniff.

That will stop yer, especially after a few weeks it smells vile.

at first it was something i did on nights out very occasionally and was like that for years

then i had a big break up and it turned more into smoking to suppress hunger and lose weight (yes, this is probably the stupid part, although it worked)

then as i got used to being single, it was something a lot of my mates did out on the lash/pull

and that's how it's been for a while on and off

I know the feeling, im thinking of stopping end of Oct 09 very latest, well my first and last cig today so far was at 11.30am im doing well i usually smoke about 6-8 a day depending on work + stress, plus its cheap here to smoke looking at about 4 euros for a pack of Marlboro.

I been at the gym for again and i have been eating healthy so i am looking to stop and replace that habit with something else

Keep it up DV, stopping to smoke can be one of the best decision in life!!

6 to 8 fags a day! What's the point in that? A proper smoker should see off at least 25 a day minimum.
 
If he's been counting them in his sig since 31st March 1999 he must have a time machine and I've always wanted to have a go in one.
Can I? Please? I wanna go back to the Viking days and see if they all really do drink Skol.

They drank Faxe

been off that for like 3 years now, the odd few burns when friends are visiting other then that never touch it, don't enjoy it, i rather drink!

The same thing can be attributed to the reason behind your posting style on here.
