Are Your Stats a Motivation to Stay Quit?

The stats do help, but even more so for me is the thought
Do I want to go through this again?  The answer is a no brainer.
Absolutely not!!!!

I love watching my stats go up and up! Also I am doing a quit smoking clinic at my doctors and the stats are useful when the Doctor asks me 'how many days?' I can tell him exactly thanks to my quit meter.

ME 2, Watching my stats became a great motavator to me. After i had collected a few days it became inportant not to loose them.
I even miss Mister Ed's stats because it makes it easier to keep up with everyone else. Isn't it about time for his vacation to be over? LOL

I think that the stats are definitely a great motivation to stay quit! Having your stats posted is also a good idea because we are then able to see when you reach a milestone and we are able to congratulate you on all of your hard work! You deserve the recognition!

As I see my quit days pile up on my stats (and the money I saved), I am motivated to keep on keeping on and watch them build and build.  First I kept track of days, then the milestones and the months.  I had doubts as to whether or not I would be able to stay quit after all my years of smoking but it seems as if I'm doing it and the posting of my stats seems to work for me.  Does anyone else feel this way or am I completely nuts?
