Well I've tried to quit a couple times before. I did however quit the whole time I was pregnant but then started up again with the stress I had going on in my life.

Not that I don't still have stress in my life, but I thought about handling in other ways than smoking. Yes I will be saving a lot more money of course that's a plus. Being able to buy some awesome fishing gear and be able to save up for the upcoming fishing trips this summer and winter.  :thumbup_smilie:

But I thank everyone for the support and I hope to stay strong on this path of being smoke-free.

I tried quitting dozens of times.  There were only two times it worked for any length of time... this past time being the longest.  The key is to keep trying and eventually you will succeed.
Live free or die trying.

Congratulations!!!  I know from continued experience it is one of the most difficult things to achieve.  On that not I would like to plug Chantix as well.  It has been the ONLY thing that has ever worked for me for any significant amount of time.

it works pretty good, if you are also mentally willing to quit.  ( and don't mind some wild dreams   :cookoo: :cookoo: )

I have found that my dreams are wild whenever I have quit smoking, regardless of ~ but including when I use(d) Chantix.  The nicotine must inhibit something in my brain regarding dreams. (OK that was way off topic - sorry)

Good for you!  I quit 4 years ago, cold turkey. I did enjoy smoking a half a pack a day but just couldn't stand giving them that money. ;D ;D

Best move I ever made! Just watch out for any relapses, from stress or ther situations............. ;D
