I'm not sure that chocolate causes heart disease and lung cancer.

It causes a fat ass which causes depression which leads to harmful self-defeating activities.
Chocolate is a gateway drug. Anyway, I quit for five months last year, and now smoke again. But I smoke about 1/4th of what I used to. Kimbob the Failure |

I can't believe Squash lasted 14 days. After years and years of talking about it.
And I didn't even notice the grumpiness. Pffft. Yeah, I give it til the end of this week. I have no faith in you, whatsoever. |

I buy a pack when I go gambling and then when I get home I give the pack to the hubby and he smokes the rest. I have no desire to smoke while at home or at
work or really anywhere but a bar or a casino or sometimes outside in the summer after dinner when the kids are playing out back.

I'm with Nat. I'm going to start drinking rat poison, because I'm not buying into that nanny state government warning label.

It's been about 6 months for me. I used to smoke Marlboro lights. Luckily, I rarely think about it now. Rainy days get me the most. I used to love to sit
out on the porch when it is raining and have a smoke.

I am on Day 50.
Quit Date = Jan 7, 2008 Saved Approx $232 Think about it often, but usually as soon as I walk through the smoker's haze outside I change my mind immediately. The smell actually makes me gag. But I have vowed NOT to become an ANTI-smoker, just a non-smoker. It only takes me about 2 seconds to walk past the huddled masses outside and I can do that and do it with a smile. Just because I stopped doesn't mean the whole world has to stop. |

Maybe I'm just lucky to have a mind of my own. I don't believe everything I'm told by the Nanny Government, or the latest Medical advice, because
just wait 5 years and all of a sudden, coffee doesn't cause cancer and is good for you...blah
I used to torture myself for years with every little thing that was good or bad for you. I am in Control of my Body and what goes into it and I don't listen to the "Experts" anymore. I've never been healthier. |

I'm with Nat. Fuck this quitting shit. We've all done very well. Let's smoke today! Come on! It'll be FINE!

I've seen the social smokers! Some can actually do that, and I am amazed that their body's immune to the nicotine or something. Okay, former smokers, try this trick. It's really gross: Take a deep breath and hold it for as long as you can. Deep, so deep from your lungs. Now look up and exhale. You will see smoke come out. ICK. |

There's a difference between "I don't care, I'm gonna have a cup of coffee in the morning" and "I don't care, I'm going to
inhale a stick of poisonous chemicals into my body five times a day."
