    I have been trying to quit for years, Ive tried cold turkey...ive tried a few things. I can now 3 or 4 days with out one and then if i have a beer or a drink, I need a smoke. I was really impressed when Rob quit and made it through a cancun trip.... thats always been my nightmare scenario. ive heard great things about that mist cigarette or the fake cigarette whatever it is

    thanks to all of you. i did quit 4 times for 8-10 months. each time i was pregnant. my biggest fear is that ill end up 500lbs. keep tring backs, i think the cancun trip will prove interesting in the no smoking department. i still drink my coffee in the morning though. havent tried a beer yet. might have to wait another week or two for that!!

    I had quit for 7 years using Zyban.

    4 years ago after contacting colitis and reading some statistics on Colitis, I started smoking again, I quit 2 years ago for 3 months and then went to Cancun and started again. Last year I quit again for 3 months and then started up again after Los Cabos. Both of those times were on Zyban.

    This year I am on Champex and quit after this years superbowl, the big test will be Los Cabos next month.

    The money is a big motivator for me, 11 bucks a day for a pack (plus being a closet smoker and going for coffee more often) adds another 3 bucks a day, 14 bucks a day cause I smoke = about 400.00 per month that I could better spend money on.
