TODAY IS MY QUIT DATE!

Hey Matt, I was happy to see your post because my friend Danny quit today so I will send him this thread by email. I have faith in him however I can't convince him to take the journey to the left which is so vital. There is a lot of good stuff here for him to read. I wish you lots of luck Matt. I've managed this far - you'll manage too. I give you all the strength you want. I'll brag by boasting my 3 year quit in exactly one month. Meet me there ok?

Gee, thanks you guys, for the star and the banana dance. Maybe you will slip on that banana peel and find yourself right on my doorstep! I got here in baby steps myself. And I thought I couldn't do it. You guys are great. Keep it up. It's worth every minute to be smoke free. Trust me. This site is what it's all about, so believe in it and have faith.

Hey Brenda, yes I am very proud, and thank you for the compliment! Mostly, I just wish it upon everybody and all of you here, because it's really a great feeling. They say sometimes you have to go through the pain to get to the other side, right? Well the other side sure is fantastic.

Wow Hummy, I never noticed the 333 from my other Quit Meter called "Smoke Free Stats". They're all a little bit different. That's great about your 333 too. I like your story about it. Maybe 3 is a good number for the lotto for me :p I really hope that legislation is passed too. It sure is good news. Keep up the good work too Hummy. You're lookin' good. :)

SMOBER ?

Trudy, it's a great term. Like you have sober from alcohol, but here we have sober from smoking cigarettes, hence we formed the word "smober".

A First in Canada

I live in Vancouver, BC, Canada. I just heard on the news last night that the city of White Rock, just south of Vancouver is about to pass legislation TO BAN THE SELLING OF CIGARETTES IN ALL ITS STORES. In Canada, we enjoy the smoke free ban in public places, bldgs, etc. established in 2000, however now, it will be even harder to buy cigarettes. Woooo Hoooo. That is such good news. I just wanted to share it with you all. See, soon you won't even be able to smoke at all. So rest assured that your quit is very valuable. Lou And proudly presenting my stats to further influence you all: I have chosen not to smoke for 3 Years 3 Months 3 Weeks 12 Hours 1 Minute 33 Seconds. Cigarettes not smoked: 24190. Money saved: C$10,280.76.
