    It has been 40 hours 18 mins since my last cigarette! So far I haven't killed anyone just yet :)

      Well done. :thumbsup: I gave up 15 years ago and have never missed it.

      I gave up some years ago, but started again during a period of depression when my dog died. This time, I have no dog, so should last!

        Good luck! Are you doing it with will power, patches, gum or just empty you pockets of money so you can't buy them? I did it with the patches 6~7 years ago. PITA but ultimately worth it. I can taste, and smell, and I don't have to lash out six quid a pack... :wtf:

            Good luck! SBW is definitely the Hard Way! Mind you, haven't you got your council elections coming soon? Either the preparations for that will take your mind off fags, or you will be so grumpy you'll bite the electorate! :laugh:

              The biggest problem is not the first week, but the most stressful day in the next one or two months. Stay strong!

                  Positive mental attitude and lots of sweeties! I am also off the beer until I am clean of nicotine. (If nothing else I should have lots more disposable income).

                    One of the incentives I was suggested by the quit-smoking clinic at my doctors, was to put the cash you would have spend on fags in a pot each day. At the end of the first month, spend the lot on a gift for yourself. Then start planning the six month treat! It gives you something to look forward to, as well as showing you how much it was really costing you.

                      I decided to cut down, rather than quit straight away. I now just smoke after meals. I'm down to 30 meals a day :)

                          I found that quitting was hardest when I would have a drink of booze or some of my favorite coffee. The nicotine gum was very helpful. Good luck and good choice.:thumbsup:

                            good for you. I'm sitting just past the two week mark myself... its tough

                            Programming is a race between programmers trying to build bigger and better idiot proof programs, and the universe trying to build bigger and better idiots, so far... the universe is winning.

                                    Congratulations! It has been a little over 178,320 hours since my last cigarrette. I haven't killed anyone yet, as far as you know.

                                      How many cigs do you consume per day? I plan to quit but the stress level increases incrementally by the minutes I'm not smoking.
