Give me a few minutes with you and I bet I could make that ass of your smoke.

Oh, that isn't what you were meaning? You are talking about the other end smoking? Or should I say NOT smoking? Well, that's great.

You know, you are sort of over the hump, in a way. They say the first few days are the worst, and every day you get further from those first few days it becomes easier to continue.

I'm impressed. After smoking so much a day, and now nothing? I had a friend who used the filters that slowly cut back your nicotine levels to nothing. I think they come in five filters to a pack. The first doesn't cut anything out, but the last one cuts most of the nicotine and tars out.

She said although the filters did work for her, she also noticed the crap she was cleaning out of them, and how it would have been going into her lungs instead. She said that was the best selling point for her. The filtering effect was good, but what they filtered out was disgusting. It gave her the courage to stay off of them, whenever she had a weak moment to start again.

I really think this is great. I wish everybody who wants to quit could just quit. But, those tobacco companies put stuff in there that get you hooked and it's strong stuff. So, when someone quits and stays off of them, you know it takes a great deal of determination.

Keep up the good fight! You are an inspiration to others who want to quit. I bet you feel a lot better, too, huh? Foods taste better, too? Life is good now.

Oh, I forgot something.

Congratulations beautiful lady!

Stubborn can be a very good thing...in the right moments. WOW did you ever choose a right moment...for a good cause.

Miss you lots

 

[Shadowsdream]

I think about you often little miss KC.

Congratulations! I know how you feel!

It's been 2 years, 4 months here

 

[lne_iii]

Congratulations hun.

Wish I could do it...I've cut back alot, sort of.

I quit smoking at home, so I only smoke in the car and at work.

Though I confess sometimes I like to go driving, and sometimes I think it's because I want a fag.

Some people smoke more because of the habbit, and not the addiction. It sounds like that's kind of what you're doing. Smoking in just certain places can be more from the habbit of smoking in those places than it is from the addiction of smoking, itself.

This might not be a lot of help, but it might give you more ammunition, if you decide to go fuirther with your cutting back. If you know why you are smoking, it can sometimes give you a better chance at cutting back in that particular situation. Such as while driving. If you can cut back on those, you might cut back quite a few cigarettes, right there.

I have a friend who quit about a year ago. Two of her habbit smoking situations were while driving and while talking on the phone. She would just light up from shear habbit...not even thinking about it. Even if she didn't crave one, she found herself smoking. And, talking on the phone was compounded by a cup of coffee. Having a cup of coffee while on the phone caused her to smoke like a chimney. She said for her, the habbit to smoke wasn't as strong as the craving to smoke. Once she was aware of these situations, she was able to cut back even more, because that craving for nicotine wasn't there.

Well i think that's partially true.
I think one reason I do it is it helps me focus.
If there's not alot going on my mind tends to wander, and smoking gives me something to think about. What kind of cig am I smoking? Do I like this brand? Don't burn anything...things like that heh.

But the main reason I smoke, at least I think, is because I enjoy it. That being said, I know it's bad for me, and am consciously trying to reduce it furthur.

People disagree with that and say, "blahblahblahiquitcoldturkey,youshouldtoo" ...
There's more than one way to flog an ass, and your way is not the only way lol.

Thanks for the insight though DVS.

I really did it. I honestly didn't think i was going to be able to... but I am pretty sure I really am now a non-smoker.

Wow! Three weeks and counting. You're smokin', girl! Oh...well, you know what I mean.

Is that stuff advertised at all? I don't know if I've heard of it, or not. Any side effects? Do you even want a cigarette, during the time you are taking this chantix?

I don't smoke, but isn't that why most people continue to smoke? Doesn't eveybody enjoy it, when they smoke? And isn't that one reason it's so difficult to quit? At least until the day they make that ulitmate decision to stop? Then, it's the addiction they are fighting.

I'm only asking. I don't know the answer. Maybe there's still more insight out there.

You dont want them...miss them...or need them. It is like you were never a smoker at all. Kinda weird but it works.

 

[callinectes]

[somberReality]

I can always hump your face lne_iii and then you won't have to think about smoking, or at least smoking cigs. Heheheehehehe

No, it's not a habit or enjoyable, it's a drug, pure and simple.

Take out nicotine and smoking would go down 99.99%. Of course the black market would be bigger than pot is today. Might as well tax the shit. And it will be one less person getting social security.

Keep it up KC. Most that make it to 90 days quit forever.

AHHHH thats why doc is keeping me on these pills for 90 days. He never did tell me why but chuckled when I said I was sure I was done with smoking and I didnt need the pills anymore.

 

[Yang4yin]

Oooooh! And no more kissing an ash tray mouth!
Keep it up - we're all pulling for you!

My mouth was never an ashtray darlin'... thanks for the pulling.

K's quit for 90 days twice. He always starts again. Of course he won't use pills to help him quit, he doesn't want to use a 'mood altering drug'. WHAT THE HELL DO YOU CALL NICOTINE?
