Bump. Still going good. Since I said I stopped, I have not had a puff of a cig. I’m still usually around it daily as well due to all my friends smoking.

I have my moments of wanting to punch babies, but in the long run… no real want for a cig. Money… I’ve decided I’m probably getting a Dirt bike.

I quit smoking over 3 1/2 years ago. I recently took notice to the price of cigs behind the counter…$10/pack? Good thing i have no desire to ever smoke again. Keep it up, it’s worth it

Coming up to 7 months. I’m trying to leave a gap between my posts so I dont annoy people, but said I would keep with the updates so it wasnt a lost cause. I still have yet to take any drag from a cig. Not really having any issues with it. I only noticed one time which was while camping this past weekend at Watkins glen with drinking, rain…not much to do.

Just giving an update. I havent been on here to much recently but still felt I needed to update this. I’m going on 10 months soon and still going good. I have had some moments where I’d love to have a cig, but defintely not doing it. Money hasnt really seemed any different but thats probably because I spend to much of it as it is. I probably own more things compared to then. But either way, still going good.

Anyone else quit and trying to stay done with smoking.

I’ve never even tried a cig, not a single pufff and don’t plan on it. Good job on quitting, the money aspect would be enough of a cause for me to stop.

I was thinking more like the negative health effects like emphysema, cancer and hypertension. But hey, the almighty dollar is quite alluring.
