Hi bobjo and welcome, The good news is YES!...It passes!...but...not without some work fist :) So, read, read, read, post, and read some more. Make this site a part of your daily routine. You'll soon see what a valuable tool it is. Congratulations on your first day. The healing process has begun: You've already decreased your chances of a heart attack. Your blood pressure and pulse rate have dropped. The circulation to your extremities has improved so they're warmer. The carbon monoxide level in your blood has dropped. The oxygen level in your blood has increased. In just a few more hours... Your damaged nerve endings will begin regrowing. Your ability to smell and taste will become enhanced. Amazing isn't it? As you can see, your body is going through some phenominal changes very quickly. You won't be feeling quite up to par as these transitions take place...so be kind to yourself...and have patience. You're on your way now :) [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 2/2/2005 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 431 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 8,638 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $1538.67 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 45 [B]Hrs:[/B] 17 [B]Mins:[/B] 28 [B]Seconds:[/B] 38
