Whatever it takes eh? CCC sounds a cool name for a curry house. Oh, its 9 currys in 9 days now. Went to "The Cottage" curry house in Warrington(UK) last night-It Was Magnificent. It was my mates birthday-ten of us went and I noticed only 2 smoke!! Used to be 3, but I dont go outside now in the cold to fill my lungs full of s""t. Felt Dead Cool staying inside and my mates noticed and patted me on the back. Felt Great!! Tony.

Don't worry, Keith. Your taste bud will gradually get back to normal levels. For the time being, enjoy the mild version of Vindaloo! :) Cheers, nmc (a curry lover) [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 8/25/2006 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 97 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 978 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $485 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 18 [B]Hrs:[/B] 4 [B]Mins:[/B] 19 [B]Seconds:[/B] 20

Hi Tony & Jan, Perhaps we should open a 3C group (CCC: Curry Cooking Club) to dicuss how to maintain our quit with the help of exotic, spicy, and fiery curries ?! ;p Cheers, nmc [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 8/25/2006 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 90 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 909 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $450 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 16 [B]Hrs:[/B] 21 [B]Mins:[/B] 11 [B]Seconds:[/B] 45

In the early stage of this quit, I found it hard to resist the temptation of smoking after a big meal! :( Following the advice of a quitter friend, I add some spicy chilli paste to the food, including my favorite Indian or Thai curries (from a jar of dried red chilly in oil, imported from China, mostly available at Asian supermarkets ...). Oh boy! It's hot! It burns my tongue, numbs my mouth, and kills all the cravings for cigarettes! :) Cheers, nmc [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 8/25/2006 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 89 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 898 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $445 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 16 [B]Hrs:[/B] 16 [B]Mins:[/B] 40 [B]Seconds:[/B] 40
