Tomorrow will mark the 24th anniversary of my quitting smoking. I'm SO glad I did it. I quit cold turkey which is the toughest way to quit. I took a puff of one about six weeks later, and I thought I was going to DIE! No more after that. This was in 1982.
Congrats!On your success.I too quit cold turkey.It will be a year for me in Feb.It really wasnt too hard for me,It was my second attempt but this time I really wanted to quit.I will NEVER go back to smoking again*Blah*Now just the smell of it chokes me up...isnt that funny?
Me, too. Now I can't stand cigarette smoke!
Well done!!! That's a big acheivement:D
Congratulations! My mom quit the same way, something like 30 years ago. Former smokers are often the most militant about cigarette smoke in their presence! ;)
Well done!
In 21 years I'll be able to say the same ;)
What an inspiration you are, David, for others who are trying to quit smoking!!!! :D Congratulations!!!!!!!
Thanks everyone! I'm happy that I can raise Nikki, Daisy, and Marigold in a smoke-free house. I hope I can be an inspiration to others!
CONGRATULATIONS David my friend,guess what David it is 24 years for me too, how about that, CHEERS my friend, let us pat ourselves on the back and like you I HATE the smell of the stuff and would never ever go back to those bad ole days ., I also quit cold turkey, how about that. :D

One year for me and I've even forgotten the date, sometime in early January I think! :)
I could never waste my money like that again.
Congrats, I'm so happy for you! That is a great accomplishment.:D
That's wonderful!

That's great David! :D
Thanks, everyone. I'm still trying to figure out the attraction of putting burning leaves in your mouth and inhaling the smoke. Why did we start??
Because we were once young and stupid? :)Quote:
