I haven't smoked in 3 weeks!

No patch, no nothing. Just stopped. It's not so hard if you set your mind to it. Before you smoke just think "do I really want this"? I have smoked for about 8 years. At one point I was doing 2 packs a day.

Good job.

Another good trick (or so I've heard... I've never smoked) is, when you feel like buying a pack of cigs, to put that money in a big jar instead and watch how much you are saving. Then, when the jar gets full, you go buy yourself something as a sort of prize.
 
withdrawals are common...so becareful man...its very tempting when you that sweet swift scent of that smoke...ive tried on numerous ocassions to stop, but its hard. i know what it can do to you...i know the cost...but the immediate benefits out way anything at those desperate times.
 
:beer: for you! Great job! This is day number 111 without a cigarette for me, so it is definitely possible. Keep up the good work!
 
I just smoked my last cigarette about an hour ago, and threw away all my cigarette related paraphanelia. No more cigarettes for me, either.
 
I always found the first day quitting to be the easiest, but by days 2-5 I was about to kill someone for a smoke. After that, it was pretty much smooth sailing for a month or two as long as I didn't spend time around people who smoked. Then month 3 and on was a breeze, I never really thought about them. Now, I'm 9+ months since quitting and my lungs feel almost like they were before I started smoking 9 years ago (yeah, I know, they really aren't).

To all those people who want to quit, just stick with it! Don't give up so easily, fight the urges and TELL yourself NO!
