Hang in there RD. If you have TOO, Fake it til you Make it! If I can do it, I believe anyone can do it. I will say you've GOT to want to do it for YOU!

Have not had the first "Puff". Been a few times I caught myself looking on the passenger seat while driving....but just laugh at the habit and continue on. Will have to say Trident Cinnamon gum helped a lot in the beginning.

That's great Rick! I figured since we hadn't heard from you guys in a while it was bad news, I'm glad I was wrong.

Good for you guys! Thanks for checking in.

So, do you have anything special you're going to buy with the money you are saving? You deserve it!

Not sure that I'm going to buy anything as of yet. Just extremely grateful to not be a slave to smokes any longer. I still appreciate all the encouragement from everyone. I believe that helps as well.

Real glad to see your accomplishment J. You've been smoke free way too long to go back now. Quitting is easy.....staying quit is whats hard. Good luck with it J!

The Deer and Turkey Expo is next weekend, i'm sure you can find something to buy there :smiley_crocodile:

I believe you are correct Jimmy! :smiley_clap:

Will have to say I was extremely glad to be tobacco free while in New York. Smokes were 9.60 a pack and dip was 8.00 a can!

Just one more reason to stay away from NY. Ridiculous!

Still not smoking on this end of it. Will have to say there's been a few day's that pushed the limits. Not sure HOW I got through the rough spots but at least I did.
