I AM QUITING

Nicorette gum helped me quit. Got me through the bad moments.

Be strong and put a pic of the AI inside your wallet, if you look at the pic next to the $20.00  before paying for a couple of smokes you will remember the rewards, not to mention you will be around for family and friends 
It will become 2nd nature. if you do something for 21 days in a row it will be part of your routine.

Be strong. remind yourself its more rewarding to exercise your will power and be strong, than to give in and poison yourself. I smoked close to 15 yrs and quitting was one of the best things I've ever done for myself. If you feel a craving come on occupy or distract yourself with something. usually the urge will pass within min. when I quit I used patches for the first three days and the I was good to go. Will power FTW. You can do it.

Good for you man!  Something I still need to do before year's end 

Possibly one of the hardest things you'll ever do.  Stick with it, and don't let it get you down if you slip up here or there.  Good luck, James!

Sweet, thats more spare cash and less lung butter
I'm sure you'll do it

for me the key was to stay busy and for the first month avoid situations where I would always light up.   It seems different for everyone but for me I felt really twitchy and exercise really helped that part of it.  2012 is gonna be an awesome year for you, catch a big ghost and lose a nasty habit.   

More Sex! To substitute for the rush and pick-me-up cigs would give you. Let the little woman know she is  doing her part to help you quit smoking 
Watch the movie "Cold Turkey" , for a laugh

good on ya James. I watched a coworker quit, & it was tough but straightforward. Like MBP, she really wanted to quit both for the money & her health.

It is a very worthy fight, give it hell!

Also, seems LilRiverMan has a good take on how to make it easier!

9-11-07 ...five years ago today was my quit date..
If my simple ass can do it I know you can...
Nothing has made my quality of life better than quitting my addiction to cigs..
YOU CAN DO-IT..

You can do it bro. It was one of the toughest things I've done, but very worth it. You'll be stoked when your sense of smell and taste come back. I remember feeling like I was always forgetting to do something and constantly reaching for my left breast pocket. I ate a lot of carrot sticks to satisfy the oral fixation. Good luck

last night was tuff kept waking up, day 2 seems harder than day 1 keeping busy and munching anything i can find. Pure anger at the stupid cigarettes seems to calm me down when the craving hits, that and keeping busy. thanks for all the support and replies it helps alot.

You can do it James! I am in the process of quiting cigarretes too but I am taking Chantix.  Look into it and see if that is something you would want to take.

You can do it James. We believe in you. What it is is just a bad habit, just gotta take up a new habit to replace it. Just chew some gun anytime you get a craving, or talk to a friend on the phone, or go for a nice jog, something to get your mind off it. It's all in the head. 

Drink lots of water to remove toxins.
