I have decided to give up smoking ..... dont enjoy it so I dont know why I bother!!!!!

I have had a bit of a cough just lately and I'm sick of spending money I dont have on tobacco .... Tony gave up with no problem last year ... so I intend to do the same and I'm not going to give it a second thought ..... disgusting habit .... my son is ALWAYS getting on at me so I told him he has to be patient if I get a little cranky .....

.....Here we go ......

none in the house and I'm not going out either ......

.  ..Please wish me luck guys!!!!!!! .  ..Please wish me luck guys!!!!!!! .  ..Please wish me luck guys!!!!!!! .  ..Please wish me luck guys!!!!!!! .  ..Please wish me luck guys!!!!!!! .  ..Please wish me luck guys!!!!!!! .  ..Please wish me luck guys!!!!!!!

smoking was huge contributing factor in death of both parents so we applaud any attempts to give up such a nasty addiction!

good luck Jinny!!

All right jinnyann!!!!

I know you can do it!!

I use the nicorrette gum during the day and I am able to make it 9-13 hours without a smoke. It helps, but it is expensive.

It is hard and harder before it gets easier. One thing you may want to do, carry some hard candies and gum. I know many this has saved from lighting up. There is something about the physical need and oral fixation and those satisfy that!!!

Good Luck!!!!
