Day#5
 

It's Day 5 Still smoke free, STILL sick but nothing like I was the last 3 days. I think I got it beat, EVEN though I would love to put a cig to my lips light it and draw in the deepest darkest breath of smoke and hold it within my lungs till I pass out.... BUT my 7 year old is so happy and my 4 year old, they been on my ass since my 7 year old learned it could kill you.... Just thought I would say hi im smoke free... hahah :helpme

The whole key of stopping with smoking is to stand behind the fact that you want to quit.

I smoked 3 years long, 1 pack a day. All of a sudden, on a sundaymorning when i was coughing my loungs out i realised it was because of the smoking. Never smoked a sigarette since then, and that was 2 months ago or something...

Good luck bro! And if you wanna talk about it, hit me up on icq, i know some talk that will help you stay off of smokin' ;)

Hey thanks, Yea I hvae been a smoker for 20 years I quit in 97 till 2000 then got a divorce and like a dummy i used that as an excuse which is a poor excuse lmao I got to get caught up on my work so hopfuly that will keep me busy :) my freaking mouth hurts from chewing canday and gum and my tummy is so blooted I made my mind up IM NOT EATING TODAY damn it lmao wonder how long that will take to fail lol

Congrats man! :thumbsup

The hardest part is the first 2-3 days after that its just your mind and the habit of putting the cig in your mouth 20 times a day. Takes a while for that part to go away but the withdrawls are over for good now at least!

Good Luck! You and your kids will be much happier & healthy now!

yea the 3rd day was the worse im over the hard part now its all in my head i think.... IM hacking up parts of my lungs and it taste like burnt chicken :( but at least its getting my clean :)

sounds like you're doing great. stick with it - next week you will feel like a whole new person. Try not to forget how crappy it made you feel to quit - and use that feeling to keep you from ever lighting up again.

Lifesavers and their double meaning. lol Keeps people form going crazy when they quit smoking and dentists making their big paychecks afterwards. :(

Luck Tom! :)

I used the patch, worked really well. :thumbsup

I wish!!!


The easiest part was the first 2-3 days, now on day 5 myself and I am going fucking nuts. I tried those non cigarettes to get rid of the cravings while I quit and those were the nastiest things and killed my throat (Quest Level 3).

today is day 5 it does feel alot easier for me, buit there are times it feels like someting is trying to rip my tummy from the inside out. :(

you are going to die one day if you smoke or not. be it by the foods you eat, old age, or stepping infront of a bus

might as well enjoy life while you are here

keep it up man, you've come this far don't give it up now :thumbsup

ty :thumbsup

:thumbsup

if not for yourself do it for your kids. passive smoking is very bad as well. if you do it for both you'll have happy halthy kids, longer life, be proud of yourself...

Day 6 for me, been smoke free since last sunday night and went through some serious stress the last couple of days besides the non smoking stress...I cant beleive my own will!
I knew i was strong but my head is like a fucking brick lol...If i dont want to, i dont want to!

keep it up guys

:thumbsup

You get sick because your white blood cell count is higher when you smoke. Just natural readjustment of your body.

If you want to speed up the detox process, go buy some

Milk Thistle for detox of blood and liver
Spirulina and/or barley grass for helping detox the lungs

hang on bro
might get a little worse

but after the first 10 days or so all the nic is out of your system

then its just mental

Hang IN!!!!!!!!!

I couldnt enjoy life anymore, coz my condition went below zero, and i had a very short breath... good reason to stop for me ;)

Been clean for what, 2 months now? And i feel great!

You'll love the feeling after 1 month that you've stopped smoking, and actually stopped being addicted to something. That's fucking awesome :thumbsup

hope you do it my friend :thumbsup

I already tried that one with the wife but the common come back for that one is well at least it won't be sooner from smoking...got any other excuses I can use?

Dude, good for you, hang in there you're almost out of the woods :thumbsup Tell that demon, you're done being a slave!!

congrats :thumbsup

Explain to me how exacly does it make life more enjoyable to:

1. Cough like a motherfucker all day

2. Get stabbing chest pains

3. Lose your sense of smell so a McBurger smells like fine cuisine and a little bit like your ashtray also because so do you

4. Constantly out of breath.

5. Chained to your cigarettes

6. Spend anywhere from $5-$10 a day

7. Etc. fucking etc

Only a nicotine junkie could say bullshit like that.

" Some beliefs or statements made by smokers sound irrational, as if they have a real death wish. Often, there is really nothing wrong with the person - it is a drug effect. Fear of withdrawal or of being unable to cope with life without cigarettes results in a defense mechanism to justify dependency. Once off smoking these excuses simply disappear, leaving a physically and psychologically healthier individuals who will have a good chance of remaining this way by following one simple procedure - NEVER TAKE ANOTHER PUFF!"
