Yeah, congratulations man!! Man, that must have taken some willpower! Keep it up!

I personally detest smoking...nasty habit (please, this doesn't mean I detest the person who does it, just the habit. I don't think less of people if they smoke.

). I can't stand the smell and the area around my school reeks of it.

. Why do so many young people smoke these days? When I go to the shops down the road I get asked by 13 - 14 year olds to buy cigarrettes. Its kinda depressing...

BAH! I still have a looooong way to go (gave up smoking 1 month ago). I smoked like 50 cigs per three days. I stopped cold turkey. Don't have any problems so far, I only miss it when going out to cafes. But I do know I'm making some fun with the money I save! I've been calculating: stop smoking for one year and get a go-to-college-for-one-year-free-cars!! How's that for investing in your future?

Congrats Ronn! [img]smile.gif[/img] I know firsthand it is a tough addiction to beat! Kudos!

I wish I could do the same

. Hey, congrats.

P.S. Chewbacca I notice you posted twice; Just wondering if you got that forum time-out thing cuz I did around the same time you posted and wondered whether It's still happening other people.

Well, I guess that marks 6 months for me then! (I quit on April 17th). I smoked for 6 years prior to that, and this is the first time Ive really attempted to quit.
BTW - well done Ronn_Bman, keep it up!!!!

Congratulations, Ronn Bman [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img]

I've never smoked before and have been tempted on a number of occasions to try one out (it's kind of a pity going through life without experiencing what it has to offer

). But, the smell does put me off and I've somehow checked myself against taking the first puff - heard that it's VERY addictive.

Today marks 5 months nicotine free. I smoked my last cigarette on May 17th. [img]graemlins/smokybounce.gif[/img]
