Quote From: fyte4acureIt's been 11 whole days, & 9 hours!!!! It feels so good!!!! I can breath easier, I will have fewer lung infections, I no longer have the horrible chest pains I did before... My teeth will get whiter!!!! I save about $10/day. I smoked a pack and a half towards the end. But I also include the gas expenses, health care costs due to increased infections, cleaning expenses from smoke, having extra laundry to do due to having smoke smelled clothes, etc. I'm saving $10/day by not smoking!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yeah!!!!
273 hours smoke-free!!!!!!!

Wow.... good for you! It's only been 3 days for me. So far, I've only had a few really strong temptations, but it's going well. I hear you when you say you breathe easier, smell nicer, have whiter teeth, etc. I am even noticing people who walk into the office after a smoke and I want to fall over... they are so smelly. I was a bit of a closet smoker... but smoked for 24 years. (started when I was 15). In my teenage years, I smoked freely everywhere, in my car, at home, restaraunts, etc. After I had my children I stopped then started again (How stupid!!!) and smoke only in my garage.
Anyways, I'm trying to avoid my garage like the plague, as it reminds me of smoking and getting away from the hectic house I live in.
I just had my 39th birthday, and I said to myself... that's it. I'm done. I am never going to poison myself again with smoking. Ever. Ok, it's only been 3 days, but I'm determined not to let those butts control my life, or those around me.
Well, I better run now. Thanks for listening... Keep up the Good Work Everyone!
P.S. Linda: You're my hero! Please tell me this gets easier.
