No cigarettes since Jan..

Feelin' good

I'm going to run 5k now.

blu808 · 04-10-2006, 11:19 PM

Thats great. Its crazy how much energy you have when you quit. i feel like im 13 again. Not to mention im not slow and retarded anymore.

ranisron · 04-11-2006, 12:25 AM

I have quit since 3/15/06... It has been what... 4 weeks.

Feeling pretty good! However my nicorretes are running low now.... May be I will buy another box of those gums. I chew 3 - 4 of them on average, and 1 in a good day, and 5 in a bad day...

I guess not too bad?!

blu808 · 04-11-2006, 01:45 AM

I was using the ncorrett patches. it is a 4 week program, and i used it for two weeks. then forgot to put it on. havent used anything since. shock winning.

topsecretgold · 04-11-2006, 02:32 AM

^^ thanks pretty awesome Luke... I don't get bad cravings anymore... However, when a smoke is under stress, he thinks of cigs, and that's why I need to have gums around me

brown eyes · 05-29-2006, 08:17 PM

status report folks?

As for me, still smoke-free and feeling good. I had a few close calls but I managed to overcome 'em. I realize there are a few things in life I love and when I smoked, it was something I loved. Theres nothing like the smoothe rich flavor of a cigarette while on break from taking bullshit from retarded customers.

Anyhow, I found something more satisfying than smoking. It may sound a bit crazy, but I run 21 miles a week.

I quit smoking in mid-Jan and started running in Feb. It was grueling and painful to say the least. My lungs were fried and my muscles were as flabby as wet noodles. Pushed through Feb, March, April, and I'm crusing through May and I'm going to turn it up in June. So far so good.

Maybe next year I'll run a marathon.

blu808 · 05-29-2006, 10:00 PM

Things are going great. Still smoke free. Thanks for the interest and checking back up. I guess it would constitute as reviving an old thread but i beleive this is acceptible. Pos rep for you. lol
Good job on your smoking BTW.

usdm180sx · 05-29-2006, 11:56 PM

Congrads hope you quit for good. I did and it feels so good to be free from addiction. Quitting drinking and smoking is harder than quitting drugs because alcohol and tobacco are readily available.

blu808 · 05-30-2006, 12:16 AM

Thanks. Yea when i quit smoking, i also quit drinking for awhile. But now im back to drinking. Im not drinking as much though which is good.
Still workin on that one.

Luke

ALTRNTV · 05-30-2006, 12:21 AM

Damn, no welded LSD for me still huh, haha.

When you move down here, you can do mine.

infinitexsound · 05-30-2006, 12:34 AM

i smoke ciggz, drink like a fish when i do, and i run 2 miles a day....... hit the gym once or twice a day..... wtf is everyones problem?????

blu808 · 05-30-2006, 03:22 AM

Ask yourself that in a few years.
lol.

It was great with me for a few years. But once your body starts to fail, things start to suck real fast.

Team Rootbeer · 05-30-2006, 05:24 AM

^werd, i did the same for 3 years, and it starts to catch up......but you get most of it back when you quit

The problem is that many people realize they're not invincible until it's too late.

bp057 · 05-31-2006, 12:36 PM

This is my 3rd day with no smokes, patch sure helps. Id kill if I quit drinking too. Yay for the coupe not smelling like an ashtray anymore...

blu808 · 05-31-2006, 02:09 PM

meteorite_flo · 05-31-2006, 10:54 PM

an_orange_s2k · 05-06-2008, 12:08 AM

congrats guys. my dad is tryin to quit smoking and im glad

dirtdiggler666 · 05-06-2008, 12:22 AM

luke did you stay smoke free?????

ayuaddict · 05-06-2008, 01:40 AM

i quit once for a whole six months about a year and a half ago (i was smoking bit over a pack a day and it was obviously not doing anything good for me).

Just to see what it would be like, and at the end of the six months i was supposed to reevaluate if i was to continue nicotine free or start again.

that shit was fucking ridiculous.

needless to say i started again at the end of the six months.

Kaizen. · 05-06-2008, 02:26 AM

Thats crazy that you got more energy out of quitting. I think thats what I gotta do... Feelin lazy all the time =(

Goodjob!

+1

Dirty Habit · 05-06-2008, 06:45 AM

Bah. I tried two weeks ago. The fucking president for the company I work for came through last week and wanted to sit down with me and a few others.

I started again shorty before that meeting. lol.

smokins14 · 05-06-2008, 07:05 AM

Ah, good for you man. EVERYONE I hang out with smokes, besides my girlfriend, which sucks because I have asthma. I always end up smelling like doo doo every friday and saturday nights. I should just sneak a patch on all those fools.

Keep it up man. Posi rep for keeping it up this long!

aa87 · 05-06-2008, 08:30 AM

Tried quittin with the gum a few monthes ago, it failed to the max, so im smoking again, ill give the patch a try.

But what sucks is the friends around me tend to chain smoke voraciously, i probably need to disassociate.

Taniguchi_Is_#1 · 05-06-2008, 11:17 AM

i'm quitting right now. been on the patch for almost 2 weeks now. no desire to smoke, i feel good without them.

origin_s135 · 05-06-2008, 12:09 PM

i tried to quit smoking, but when i go out to drink, my cravings go ++++++++!!! it's really hard for me, i'm surrounded by smokers of all types[weed&cigs].

I would strongly recomend the patch over the gum, from the research i have done it is easier with the patch.

Yes but you will be on the fucking CHIP with nicoderm. That stuff will get you riled up!
