We have threads of people who quit smoking before but they were all personal and not for the community as a whole.
I decided today that I'm going to give it another go and try to quit smoking. Doing the math, I can save over $500 a year on my cheap ass cigarettes alone, then there's gas money to drive to the store for specific cigarette runs, lighters, etc.
Once I reach 30 days without a cigarette I'll treat myself to a new video game, then 90 days...I'm not sure yet, but something good. I just got to have something to motivate me, along with friends and family.
I'll post here at least once a day to keep tabs and track the days.
Feel free to discuss your quitting or why you don't want to quit or keep track of your own progress!

So, 4 hours down...a lifetime to go.
You can do it! Cut his freaking head offff!!! :]

Congratulations man. Keep your mind on the straight and clean path forward.
I took up the habit of chewing gum over and over last year for a full month. Never went back to cigs again. Don't even know why we start, but once we do it's so damn hard to quit.

I don't like chewing gum, it hurts my jaw after a few minutes.
I usually just find stuff to occupy my mind. Since we never smoke inside the house, being busy prevents me from stepping outside.

I'm not the kind of person to preach to anyone about changing their ways, I know how good a cigarette is and I know how hard it is to quit.

Very true.
Cold turkey gets so much harder after each year I've been a smoker.

It was bound to happen, to both of you. Be vigilant, try again, don't quit trying, eventually you'll succeed. I got curious and tried. I went a day and a half before I caved.
