I am proud to say, CE and I smoke our last cigarette as of aprox. 1pm yesterday afternoon!

good luck! remember that its all in the mind

it has been really hard the past two days. It seems that everything we do, somehow it involved cigarettes. The trick is to keep reminding myself that I am quiting because I wanted to.

yes! good thoughts! im sorry but seeing women smoke is just a plain turn off! keep it off so you can live a healthy life!

Don't you mean, "Do give up"?

Good luck, it's all in the mind. I gave 'em up about 5 years ago.

I Will Not Smoke!!!!

If i say that often enough I just might think someone will believe it, and then the possibility that someone else would think that that person was thinking I believed it which will just reinforce the circular logic that belief is just an after thought and that just not doing something is better than doing something dumb and so forth...

good for the both of you!!! trust me it does get easier as the day's go by.
Another good incentive is figure up how much money you are saving.
if you think about smoking go to the hospital and walk through the oncology wing. seeing what some of these people are going through as they die from cancer will make you think twice about lighting up.

Hang in there, kitty. The first three days are the worst, for the physical withdrawal. Once the pangs pass comes the hard part: remembering why you stopped each time you're tempted to light one up. But it certainly can be done.

And when you find yourself gaining weight -- and you will -- don't go back to smoking! There are much better and safer ways to keep weight off than that: change of diet, exercise, portion control.
