IM 41 AS OF fEBUARY 1ST 2006,My doctor told me either quit or die I just had a grandbaby born and I wanna watch her grow into a beaqutiful young woman,Im on oxygen now not because of the smokeing but the smokeing surely does not help matters,when I fire up a ciggerette I know its killing me so why is it so damn hard to quit im useing the gum and so far I have no problems with quitting but its only been two days,but I have been a smoker for nearly 25 years,can you imagine what my lungs look like?Well i will quit and although I know I wont get better,at least ill know im doing what I can to watch my sweet Marissa grow into a wonderful young lady. :lol: :lol:

Way to go, Geneo! I know you can do it with that motivation! It's sounds like you're just ready.

Use the gum if/when you have the urges. Come back for support if you need to chat about it. We're here!
Well you have the motive too quit.So just remember what the doc told ya,and trust me it makes it alot easier.Im at the point where I dont really have cravings every once in a while i think Uhmmmmmm a smoke would be great now,then i remember i dont smoke any more.it really is all mind games.i wish you the best of luck.you can d it!!
I've been a week without a smoke and I have to remind myself that I quit, it's difficult because my husband smokes but he has been good and goes outside away from me. I'm finding that keeping busy makes a huge difference to the cravings. Good luck
Way to go!! I have people helping me trying to quit...I want to quit...I can't do it full time, but I have stopped for a few days on and off. I found myself not being able to do that at all before.

That's very encouraging to hear, and I wish you all of the best. I think a lot of us smokers ex-smokers know what you mean.

Listen to Ron and try the gum... I didn't like it that much...but I tried it!! hahaha

Best of luck to you..... I KNOW you can do it
First of all, Geneo...very happy birthday! You are only 41 and you have so much life ahead of you! Now is the time to reclaim of it!!!

Its very hard to quit, but some of us have done it...even though it wasn't (and still isn't) easy. But I know you can make it! You have a precious reason to stay off the cigs.

We're all here for you. At the risk of sounding cliche, take it one day at a time, and before you know it, you'll be 42...and a year smoke
free!!!!
Ok im usen the gum,im now 1 week with not even a drag off from a cig,first off thank you to everyone for the words of encourgement,im feelen great actually with very few craveings,im really surprised it has not been harder,i beleive its what we have at stake when we try to quit that determines how much we put into quitting,i wont accept "I cant quit" I will quit is all I keep on my mind.Thanks again everyone for the support it truely helps a ton.
