Trying to be smoke free!

[Swinger]

Thanks Mrs. Mosh! I was just in the garage getting greasy and that kinda helps, till I get pissed, ha ha. I think the first few days will be rough then Ill be ok. I told my wife she has to smoke somewhere where I cant smell it- outside! I got a killer headache now but maybe Ill try the coffee thing. I just picked that habit up a few months ago- helped me quit the monster drink addiction! Ha ha.

Cudos to all who have quit this and any other addiction! I was freakin there a bit ago but took some deep breaths like I needed to do and walla!! Ok for now. Thanks guys, your support is greatly appreciated!

Another thing is set yourself a goal, and a reward for that goal.. If it's a week without smoking.. You should have $35 for a reward you wouldn't have had before..

That will be hard, you quitting and her not. Fortunately Tammy has been really supportive in my case and does not smoke around me. She (your wife) is going to have to smoke outside. She wont like it, but tell her to do it for you and the kids..
I will tell you, the 3 first days without having one for me, a few peeps came into the shop and the smelled like smoke/ass..Bad..and it stinks. I cant believe that is how I smelled to others. After just 3-4 days, your breathing gets probably 40% better..did for me anyway..
I would like to consider this thread a "help group" from here on out. Lets try to back each other up here and help one another.
I have not found myself getting disturbed over them and not having one..I guess if you get real cranked up, you can always lock yourself in the bedroom and "push the bush"..
Instead of a punching bag...

Seriously..Read that link I posted on page 1 whenever youy get the urge to have one..It helps!

Mosh- that is too funny, "push the bush" I may just have to give it a shot!!!

Do it...And play it like John Madden calling a football game..

"you need to get good Penetration"
"You gotta hit that hole and hit it hard if you want to score"
"Look at that gash for the ball carrier"

The craving only last "Tops" 10 seconds then its gone,Again Mosh said it! I feel so much better in the mornings food taste better, smell better, breath better,no more stuffing up in the nosee, but the biggest thing I noticed is feeling better in the morning! Coffee not good with me " makes me wanna smoke!! Everybody is different you need too find your thing that works for you.

Im here for ya if you need someone to vent to- Im currently partially employed so rainy days I am home and on 3WW. Slow time for me so if anyone needs me Im usually around! Support groups are a great thing to have when you need! We can do this!

Definitely a great idea...

This is the 3rd time I have quit. The first time was alone and did it cold turkey with the help of weightlifting. It lasted about 3 years and a divorce got me smoking again.. 2nd time, I used SmokeAway. You can buy it at WalMart and it worked great. Lasted 2.5 years and a custody battle and I was smoking again.. Third time was with my current wife and we both quit cold turkey. She tried Chantrix but had awful suicidal dreams and quit taking it.. Lasted about 4 months before she started again behind my back, when I found out I was smoking again with her.. The last time Jan 2011 I had a major surgery and we both quit cold turkey and this time we are in a good enough place it stuck. It'll be a year in January, and life is 1000% better..

Mosh is right, with the temptation in front of you it will be sooo much harder to quit. It would be awesome if you could get her to quit with you.. For any reason out of 100 reasons.. Bottom line is I felt extremely foolish for paying money to shorten my life, and lessen my ability to enjoy my life with my family.. Remember why you want to quit, and remind yourself when you are feeling like slipping..

[badass350x]

DAM RIGHT WE CAN! That's the way Im looking at it.

[badass350x]

Chantex is no good, please nobody take that stuff.

Yupp, dad quit at age 75.
At the huntin' cabin with a bunch of friends, they all went outside to smoke at 12 below zero,
and they realized, all of a sudden, after however many years that it was StOOpid!
and they all threw what was left in the woodstove.
Middle of nowhere and no way to get more.
It worked for every last one of them.
