    Good luck. I seem to be slowly sliding back into smoking. Quitting is more awesome than you think. Lot's more money and woman don't think your breath smells like hell.

    People still smoke??
    People should learn endurance; they should learn to endure the discomforts of heat and cold, hunger and thirst; they should learn to be patient when receiving abuse and scorn; for it is the practice of endurance that quenches the fire of worldly passions which is burning up their bodies.

    I don't think that's how you're supposed to do it.

    Well day three or so here. Red Bull seems to take the edge off, and Ive been mowing on candy cigs for the oral/hand fixation.

    Smoothed things over with the wife and the copier and I are being amicable for work purposes.

    Been grinding my teeth a bunch though like a methhead minus the meth addiction.

    I ended up having that so called 100 days cough and with such I couldn't even attempt a puff.
    Best thing that ever happened...I never get cravings !

    Hey congrats on the will power.I quit for 7 yrs after smoking like from 11 to 43 .Then smoked again for 4yrs .Just quit again in march .Did it with patch and no drinking beer for about 6/7 weeks.Only problem is as it was last time, cigarette smoke always smells good to me and i fear i am not long for the non smoker team.
    Also last time i quit it was just to save money and cigs were 3.50 a pack.Last pack i bought were like 10..I know i am a ass but nicotine is almost as bad if not worse than blow.
    Again good luck
    I put forth this question and the question is,
    When i did your mother twice last nite did I get sloppy seconds ?????

    I read this and a few of the other funny posts to Mrs. Gadget and my daughter; as we were all laughing together, my daughter and I both said "And that's when the fight started" at the same time. So I am sharing How to start a fight:

    One year, I decided to buy my mother-in-law a cemetery plot as
    a Christmas gift...

    The next year, I didn't buy her a gift.

    When she asked me why, I replied,

    "Well, you still haven't used the gift I bought you last year!"

    And that's how the fight started.....

    ________________________________


    My wife and I were watching Who Wants To Be A Millionaire while
    we were in bed.

    I turned to her and said, 'Do you want to have Sex?'

    'No,' she answered. I then said,

    'Is that your final answer?'

    She didn't even look at me this time, simply saying, 'Yes..'

    So I said, "Then I'd like to phone a friend."

    And that's when the fight started...

    ________________________________


    My wife and I were sitting at a table at her school
    reunion, and she kept staring at a drunken man swigging his
    drink as he sat alone at a nearby table.

    I asked her, "Do you know him?"

    "Yes", she sighed,

    "He's my old boyfriend. I understand he took to drinking
    right after we split up those many years ago, and I hear he
    hasn't been sober since."

    "My God!" I said, "Who would think a person could go on
    celebrating that long?"

    And then the fight started...

    ________________________________

    When our lawn mower broke and wouldn't run, my wife kept hinting
    to me that I should get it fixed. But, somehow I always had
    something else to take care of first, the shed, the boat,
    making beer... Always something more important to me. Finally she
    thought of a clever way to make her point.

    When I arrived home one day, I found her seated in the tall
    grass, busily snipping away with a tiny pair of sewing
    scissors. I watched silently for a short time and then went into
    the house. I was gone only a minute, and when I came out again
    I handed her a toothbrush. I said, "When you finish cutting the
    grass, you might as well sweep the driveway."

    The doctors say I will walk again, but I will always have a limp.

    ______________________________

    My wife sat down next to me as I was flipping channels.

    She asked, "What's on TV?"

    I said, "Dust."

    And then the fight started...

    ________________________________

    Saturday morning I got up early, quietly dressed, made my
    lunch, and slipped quietly into the garage. I hooked up the
    boat up to the van and proceeded to back out into a torrential
    downpour. The wind was blowing 50mph, so I pulled back into the
    garage, turned on the radio, and discovered that the weather
    would be bad all day.

    I went back into the house, quietly undressed, and slipped back
    into bed. I cuddled up to my wife's back; now with a different
    anticipation, and whispered, "The weather out there is
    terrible."

    My loving wife of 5 years replied, "And, can you believe my
    stupid husband is out fishing in that?"

    And that's how the fight started....

    _______________________________


    My wife was hinting about what she wanted for our upcoming
    anniversary.

    She said, "I want something shiny that goes from 0 to 150 in
    about 3 seconds."

    I bought her a bathroom scale.

    And then the fight started......

    ______________________________


    After retiring, I went to the Social Security office to apply for Social Security. The woman behind the counter asked me for my driver's License to verify my age.

    I looked in my pockets and realized I had left my wallet at home. I told the woman that I was very sorry, but I would have to go home and come back later.

    The woman said, 'Unbutton your shirt'. So I opened my shirt revealing my curly silver hair.

    She said, 'That silver hair on your chest is proof enough for me' and she processed my Social Security application.

    When I got home, I excitedly told my wife about my experience at the Social Security office. She said, 'You should have dropped your pants. You might have gotten disability too.'

    And then the fight started...

    ________________________________

    My wife was standing nude, looking in the bedroom mirror. She was not happy with what she saw and said to me,

    "I feel horrible; I look old, fat and ugly. I really need you to pay me a compliment.'

    I replied, "Your eyesight's darn near perfect."

    And then the fight started...

    ________________________________


    I rear-ended a car this morning...the start of a REALLY bad day! The driver got out of the other car, and he was a DWARF!!

    He looked up at me and said 'I am NOT Happy!' So I said, 'Well, which one ARE you then?'


    That's how the fight started.

    I'm at over 9 months and i hardly ever think about it anymore. I even had the smoking dream... it was a bit odd because there was a pack of my mom's brand, not mine, but i turned them down, even in the dream.

    yay me.

    Keep it up. It's an important component of any successful retirement program.

    I know you're playing on the other thread, but that's a true statement. One of the main reasons I quit: I want to be a healthy retired dude so I can do shit.

    Funny this thread pops back up.

    I haven't fallen off the wagon so to speak but I have bummed a couple here recently. It was so enjoyable but incredible guilt ridden.

    I tried an e-cig as well, what the fuck is the point. I honestly think I was addicted to the fact that noone would bother me for 5-10 minutes every time I had a cig. That was awesome. Smoking was awesome. Ugh I miss it.

    Weed intake has gone up, gave up Redbull though.

    I'm over two years now. Not a single smoke. Can't afford to smoke even one, I liked 'em too much.

    Dude no!!!

    #1 rule of the Carr book. NOT ONE SMOKE EVER! And no substitutes! Nicotine will crawl right back into your life, man.

    I was on the patio the other night with a good buzz and looked down and there were about 5 cigs only a 3rd burned (my dad was over and that's how he smokes them). I had this really bad urge to smoke one. But I didn't. Crushed them into the garbage. So glad I didn't.

    No smokes dude! Just don't do it. You don't need that shit.

    17 plus years since I've had a cig. When I quit I had smoked for more years than I hadn't. Just went cold turkey and haven't had a craving, ever.

    Good for you. The worst dreams of my life have my smoking again.

    I have my 10 year anniversary in 4 days, with only 1 butt when stoopid drunk in Copenhagen.

    Keep it up.

    Just a bump for the best thing ever, for me, Juul.

    Pack a day Marlboro Red for like fucking ever guy here. Tried to quit many many times.

    Juul is better than smoking. Tastes better, more convenient, no issues, super stealthy. Made by the makers of PAX (great product btw), it is super slick, looks like a flash drive. Weighs nothing, literally. You'll be amazed how light it is. Only 4 flavors, so pick one, not like dicking around with a 1000 flavors like they do at vape shops (I've been there). One strength. Which strength is fucking strong for real.

    This thing is the tits. I got gas around 7:30 tonight, said fuckit whynot? and bought a pack of smokes, smoked two and pitched em. Nasty. I may have actually quit, Juul is better. There's like this little endorphin thing with it, seriously. Actually pleasurable, unlike choking down yet another nasty butt just to get back to normal.

    Never mind their marketing, it sucks. They seem to need help in that department. The product itself is awesome. I actually love the Bruul flavor, so good.

    So go git one.
