Hi Kabrevor, Sounds like you've got the best reason in the world to quit - for yourself and for your family. I'm on day 72 on the patches and I've now reached the stage where I'm thinking 'Yes, there is more to life than smoking'. It may seem hard to believe in the early days, but that feeling will come to you. My advice is simple - keep busy, if you have time, spend it on a hobby/project that you enjoy. Don't dwell on whether you can quit for good, focus on today and only today. Watch your quit meter - each day is another success Good luck and all the best [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 2/13/2006 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 72 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 2,164 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] �540 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 12 [B]Hrs:[/B] 0 [B]Mins:[/B] 37 [B]Seconds:[/B] 7

Congradulations!!! You have got some GREAT reasons to quit, keep those in mind at all times. I am 3 weeks and counting. It seems that I have traded smokes for gum and "dum dum"suckers. Don't forget to take DEEP breaths of CLEAN air when you get the urge. Keep up the good work, come here often, and again, CONGRADULATIONS!!!!

Hi kabrevor, Congratulations on another smoke-free day. Just keep on posting so we will know how you are doing.. I'm also glad you're getting out to your daughter's track meet tonight. That will be good, and not smoking will make your daughter proud. And you are going to smell so good when she gives you a big hug... Kabrevor, I know that it is hard, this journey will probably be the hardest thing you have ever done... But YOU CAN DO IT!! Just keep on believing it... Each day will get better..Look forward to you post tomorrow..
