no hijack intended just trying to broaden a few horizons.

Nope, they're just smelly, inconsiderate stunninghunks. I know, I was one until 6 months ago.

Congratulations!

I quit cold turkey 3 times in 30 years of smoking, every time after 2 years a switch went off and I was smoking again. Even after quitting I still wanted a cigarette most of the time. This last time has been different though, I went to a hypnosis class at a local high school and haven't had a smoke or even an urge to have one ever since. Going down the parkway behind a car with a smoker, I can smell it if the windows are open, my sense of smell and taste are much better.

The cost for the class was $42, and an extra $15 for a CD or cassette. A woman in my office went to a hypnosis session at a local Holiday Inn, her and her husband paid $500 total, it seems they get people so worked up that they buy all the supplements and such, as always buyer beware.

Good Luck, you're a non smoker now!

Wlfgng, Eagler's sister stole that title from my mother in law, the incarnate of Evil herself. Unfortunately she doesn't smoke or drink so she'll probably outlive me and I'll never get to dance on her grave.

This is one thing that "concerns" me about quitting.

I started to smoke before I ever performed oral sex on a woman.

Thanks for the replys and support guys. I'll beat this thing I'm sure but it's a tough row to hoe right now. Flying over the weekend I found myself reaching for the ashtray every time I would TO and set my climbout speed...old habits yaknow

Doing the Nicotrol thing now. The delivery system is similar to smoking and the good thing about that method over most others is that you use it only when needed...kinda like the gum but it seems to satisfy the 'trigger' events better for me.

The cost savings are already paying off. I used to spend $45-50 every two weeks on cigs...my new USB CH flight gear is going to get here all that much sooner now

:D

Sure do! Errr, ah,,,,well, different anyway. Not sure about better. The stunninghunk part actually got a lot worse, then somewhat better. Still improving, I think.
