    Default 9 months smoke free!

    Sure some of you guys remember me trying to quite smoking over the past few years (been a 20 year smoker)....well I can finally say that this weekend...I am 9 months smoke free!!

    I don't usually pat myself on the back lol...but this, I'm pretty proud of. I think this has honestly been the best decision I have ever made in my life!

    Good for you! It's been 5 years for me (after smoking for nearly 40 years). Don't let your guard down, but you've got it beat this time!!!

    Congrats. You deserve a pat on the back!

    It will be two weeks for me this coming Tuesday. I feel better all ready, although a little jiggy!!
    When you can arrange your affairs to go fishing, forget all the signs, homilies, advice and folklore. JUST GO.

    Way to go Steve. Congratulations to all us quitters. It'll be 14 years for me and my wife in March. I was up to 3 1/2 packs a day after 35 years. Funny how we remember when we quit, but not when we started. ( March 15th, 1998 )

    Where you go is less important than how you take the steps.

    It will be 7 years for me the 23rd of this month.

    Keep it up Bobby, and be sure to say thank you to all of those around you in another month.

    Congratulations to all of you guys who quit smoking and to your wives for putting up with you while you quit. I have a lady friend in Southern California who installed new granite countertops and takes some pretty nice vacations on the money she used to spend on smoking. She has a kitty she puts $ it in one the same frequency she used to buy cigarettes.

    Congratulations Steve.I believe quitting smoking is the greatest experience you can accomplish for yourself.We usually get the token pat on the back but it is soon forgotten.I had a friend who was a heroin addict for 17 years and quit but could never stop the smoking habit.The rest of your life you can praise yourself for getting the monkey off your back.Ray
