Thank you Pentinent - sometimes you just have to tell it like it is. If I have talked at least one person into making their quit last then the post was worth it. Have a great week everyone - hang in there if you are having a hard time - Believe me, it gets easier before you know it.

This is great! I have "quit" many times but this was the only one where I had a positive viewpoint and it made all the difference in the world. Keep up the good work.

Positive is the only way to go!!!! Whats that old saying, "misery loves company"! I think this quit is only working because of 3 things 1. Chantix 2. This Site 3. Positive Attitude :) [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B]3/1/2007 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 84 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 2,100 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $420.00 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 8 [B]Hrs:[/B] 22 [B]Mins:[/B] 47 [B]Seconds:[/B] 39

Pessimists are only happy when they're unhappy. So yeah, they probably are. [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B]5/13/2007 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 11 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 220 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $121.00 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 1 [B]Hrs:[/B] 3 [B]Mins:[/B] 32 [B]Seconds:[/B] 32

Anna, I have tried to see my quit as a positive thing & do it in a positive way from the start. I've never been able to do that before, I have always dwelt on the misery, the crankiness, blh,blah,bah. This site and positive, encouraging posts like yours are what has made the difference this time. There is a video about that fish market & it's really uplifting.

Just wondering if anyone has tried my positive theory??? [img]http://www.techhelpers.net/e4u/animal/649.gif[/img] Has anyone read the book about the workers from the fish market that are really happy and positive even though they have a really stinky job?
