Exactly! There's some TV ads on at the mo where a bloke in a bar goes up to a woman but cos she stinks of cigs, he backs off. Ruined lovelife = not worth it!!
I had acupuncture May 6, 2003 and haven't smoked since and it only cost me $145! My dad had it done before he passed away (not from smoking) and he was 2 pack per day smoker and he never smoked since the moment he had it! So easy, so cheap and so worth it!
ok kids....it's been 3 weeks today...on the patch, and it's still tough...but, I will do it!!!! My 24 y/o Son made a bet with me...he said if I'm still smoke free by the 15th, he would quit too....sooooo....I'm going out Friday to buy him his first box of patches!!! Everyone hang tough!!! I smoked 2 & 1/2 packs a day for 33 years...( damn I'm old)...if I can do it...ANYONE can! Wanna know my insperation?(sp) I always wanted to go to Italy, but could never even think about facing the plane ride without smoking....now, maybe in a year or 5 (lol) I will dance in St. Peter's Square!!! ( and this from an Irish gal !)
Linda ... that is AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!! I smoked for many years, too, and I know how hard it was to quit. Now I am the anti-smoking queen. I can't stand to even smell it on someone else. You can do it!!!!!!!!!!!! :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap:
Wow Linda that is awesome ... I know you and your son Can do it!!! Good luck and we are all hear for you !!!!!! :clap:
Congrats Lindat! I feel like the quitter needs to be ready. I tried so many times before, but never really 'wanted' to. One year and two months ago, I guess I was ready. Everyone always says they still crave them-I do not. Hopefully you'll be so lucky too! Good luck!!!

:bounce3: :bounce3: :bigband: :bounce2: :bounce2: CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL OF YOU!!!!!!! I read that if a male smokes one pack of cigarettes a day it shortens his life (on average) by 13 years, and for a woman who smokes a pack a day it shortens her life (on average) by 14 years! Please don't shorten your life!!!
