Title: 8 months since my last cig
Post by: Nilsen on September 03, 2004, 02:50:12 PM
Today i really feel like one for the first time in months.

Must be because i got my very own personal refridgerator in my home office :D

Just sitting here looking at it full of beer (well it was a coupe of hours ago) makes me want a cig really REALLY badly :(

Stick with it Nils. (I say this as I enjoy the rich, smooth, full flavor of my Marlboro.);)

J/K Nils. Go sniff a wet ashtray, that usually kills any urge to smoke. I used to smoke Barclays a long time ago, they were a discount brand. Have'nt seen them in years. I smoked Vantage almost exclusively for 20 years. Now they are $40 a carton and Marlboro is $23. Ecomonics prevailed.

THAT is very very true.

I have actually saved one of my old jackets that i keep out in the shed (unwashed). That way i can just go out and sniff how badly my clothes used to smell when i was a smoker

Just picture that cute little baby of yours as a 12 year old smoking a cigarette. That's the mental image I used. Don't want to be a bad role model.  I've been cigfree for 4.5 years now.

In order to keep New Yorks medical programs afloat I have to smoke as much as possible.

The price for a pack here is so rediculous that lately though I've had to shortchange NY's hospitals and support Native Americans rights to sell to me tax free.

Ahh...time to take a walk (not a mile) for my Camels.

Good job, but don't let your guard down dude. I smoked for 12 years.....quit for 2 1/2 years, then for a reason I can't even remember started again about a year ago. I just quit *again* last Saturday, and this time it's for good. I thought after 2 1/2 years I was home free, but I smoked ONE cigarette on my 32nd birthday and that was enough to make me pay $$$ to take time off my life for another year.

I quit smoking and drinking once. Man it was pure hell. Longest 45 minutes of my life. :D


   Actualy I did quit smoking a few years ago for about 6 to 8 months. A couple of us decided to make the Sturgis run and by the time I returned home I think I had made up for every cig I had missed in those months.

heheh..welcome to the 'quit smokers club'.  I havent touched a cigerette in 16 years.  The trick?  You have to quit every single time you want one for the rest of your life.   So you litereally fight 1000's of battles.  The first 3 years are critical, and I can say, You havent really quit until you go 3 years without one.  After that you only get the craveing once in a while, and really, just smelling someone light up a fresh  marble red is enough tobacco pleasure.
  And, you can enjoy the occasional cigar.

I had one cigar after 3 months.. when my daughter was born. I figured that if i could not handle that then i would be way to weak to manage the rest of my life. :)

Nilsen, before you re-start to smoke think about what good you
have done to your body the last 8 months. Your lungs and your heart
will be gratefull, why re-start to poisen them slowly again?


<--- 2 years free of cig slavery.

Been about 3 months for me, I have had maybe 4 cigs total since then (drinkin with the boys).  So I guess I have quit.  Sometimes when I get stressed I really really want one.
