OK, I've started stopping!

[rumonkey2]

Set a stop date for smoking cigs 9/21 and so far, so good!!!
Using the level 2 patch as help & the first 3 days were pure hell!!!
But yesterday better & today even better!

Now, I'm still gonna lite up a cigar every now and then - 2 a week? and anytime I'm on the course. But, not for another week or so. And, I'll be danged if I can't already smell things I haven't lately!:yes: And hopefully some "taste" will return too...I'm tired of having to "hot pepper" everything! Although I will anyway...:fryingpan:

Chillin' w/ some good tunes in the "updated" room - waiting on SCAMPs of course - Steely Dan, Shelby Lynn & Chris Cornell sound sweet today! Am smoking a butt on the grill & about to watch a flick! Life is good!:goodvibes:

Congrats on the quitting too! I recently quit also after
years of smoking. One site - http://www.quitnet.com/
is a helpful reminder, imo. Plug in how much you smoked
and when you quit and it will send your reminders occasionally
and tell you how much you saved by quiting -both in $$
and in "health" returned. You may only get an email every two
weeks or so -but it is rewarding to see your tallys increase.
Good luck!
PS> imo, the cigars have to go also -lol
PPS> envious golfer here ......I don't play anymore
cause I can't get in the 70's anymore .....but....hmmm....

Good luck. I quit :smoke1: 3 1/2 years ago. Just stopped after 30+ years. You have to want to quit & understandit is nothing more than a habit, nothing more. I don't believe in patches or gum. All those are, are another habit that will need to be broken. If you want to quit, you will. Make no mistake about it. :jiggy:

Might want to try a Neti Pot too, really clean the sinus cavity. Available at drug stores in the nasal section for like $15 bucks. I started using one last week every morning and my sinus feel cleaner and clear all day long. I'm not a cigarette smoker, just seem to have allergy problems and such.

Thanks guys!

I am on quitnet. Been smoke free for 2 weeks + now!
Used level 2 patch for first 10 days or so - then just nothing...
Other than watching the AU game the other night, haven't had the "urge"...
And haven't picked up a cigar yet - but likely will when I golf Thursday!
Sorry, ain't giving up herfing!
