My Story
So, I quit smoking on December 23, 2005 with the help of the nicotine patch.
I "went off the patch" on February 14, 2006.
I had "just a couple drags" off a cigarette on February 16, 2006.
I started a new job on February 20, 2006, and one of the girls I was training with smokes, so I started going out for breaks with her. And smoking cigarettes on those breaks.
I put a patch on again on February 23, and didn�t on February 24. I�ve been smoking (during work hours) ever since. I broke down and bought a pack on February 27.
So, now that you�re all up to date with "my story", I can tell you that I plan on going back on the patch on Sunday...I�m afraid that in order to STAY quit, I�ll never be able to stop using it...I�ll be on the patch forever...
Ex-Breaker,
Lucy
Hi all,
I used to be a December Breaker, but had a full-blown relapse in mid-to-late February and just got up the nerve to actually quit again today.
I would love to be part of your group!
I came up with some names following the theme most of you seemed to want:
The Shamrocks
Smogfree Shamrocks
Lean, Green, Smokefree Machines
The Clovers
Clean Clovers
The Green Quitters
Anyway, good luck to us all.

...this time for good. I finally took the plunge (again) and quit today. This time has to be my forever-quit...I can't continue this yo-yo-ing.
I have my list, my gum, my water, and my wedding coming ever-closer...and hopefully the SSC hasn't given up on me yet...
Anyway, I'll check in periodically, depending how busy I am at work.

I bought a stress-ball on Tuesday and keep it in my bag for when craves hit...probably not as satisying, but easier to carry around!!
