Yikes Dave!
I picture my healing lungs saying thank you every day.
I'm afraid to think about how many I foolishly smoked!
Thanks,

Wow, never visualized what 10K cigarettes would look like. Or 1K, 5K, 100K for that matter. Isn't it amazing that if someone would have shown you that pic a year ago, chances are you would have shrugged it of with a "whatever"... And look at you now Dave... Looking ahead to a great life smokeless, healthier, happier... the new improved version of you...
Thank you for your success story! As you said: it is the proof that some of us need that it can be done!
Keep the quit

A picture is definitely worth a thousand words in this case.

Congratulations on all of your achievements! You should be very proud of yourself.

That's a lot of smokes.  I feel a strange sadness for the poor sprog posed in front of it...part of me is wondering whether the photographer said 'hey go stand over there' around a cig hanging from the corner of his/her mouth!!

That display really hits home. That looks like an awful lot of cigarettes. Congrats on passing them up, Impalamania.

Dave, isn't it a great feeling to know that you haven't smoked 10,000+ cigs?  I know when I first hit 10,000 I was embarrassed, boy did I smoke alot!  But the joy soon came as I know that was 10,000 coffin sticks I hadn't put in my mouth.  336 smoke free days isn't shabby either!  You have about a month to plan your one year reward!!!  Congratulations!!!

I just realized that I have NOT smoked 10,000 cigarettes so far this year.  I am so proud of this accomplishment and am living proof that this habit can be changed.   
 
 
This photo from China Daily illustrates a glass container filled with 10,000 cigarettes intended to raise people's awareness of the harm of smoking.
 
If I can do it, you can too!  Be proud you are a non-smoker!!!
 
Keep the Quit,
 
Dave
