Momma, Me too! I'm 43 and almost a 30 year smoker. Today's the day! I'm using Chantix and was able to ween down to just 3 yesterday. Destroyed the rest of the pack and cleaned up my surroundings. Good luck to US. PS: The name says it! Cigarettes are cheap and fresh where I come from...

I am smoking my last few cigs. Most of you are probably american. I'm Irish but don't hold that against me. Anyway, this is about my 7th attempt and I am not looking forward to it but I am positive in a fearful kind of way. Tomorrow is my first day without my insidious companion for the last 20years. I can't wait to be free and yet I know the desire to smoke will never go away it will only fade in time and intensity. Good luck to you mommacookies and all you who are starting this journey soon.

Hello and Welcome Momma, Remember today is the first day of the rest of you life, which will be greatly extended by giving up the nicotine. Just start watching your quit meter and at how quickly the hours and days of your life start to increase, that is a great motivator. Today is my day two and I am making it - so hop on board and lets get this quit going.
