@The Passive Dad: I chewed a lot of gum for the first few days but I quickly got tired of it.

Keep it up. You're helping your wallet and your heath. BTW...do you chew a lot more gum now? When my dad has tried to quit smoking he really enjoyed chewing gum.

Congrats on quitting smoking, just as I read this post I heard an ad on the radio for that nicotine gum, spooky.<BR/><BR/>Pretty cool to think you've probably added 15 years to your life by quitting.

"@Rebecca: What do you plan to do with your no-smoking savings?"<BR/><BR/>For now, I'm sticking it in an account and letting it sit.

Congrats and good luck keeping it up! Great idea to save the amount you'd otherwise spend on cigs.

Congratulations! My husband quit smoking after thirty-some years. He never thought he'd be able to quit, but he did! The prices of the things just keep going up higher and higher!

@ALL: Thanks so much for all of the support. It really helps make this a little easier. <BR/><BR/>@Tomas: Good Luck. Once you take that first step, it gets easier down the road. <BR/><BR/>@Jodi: You smoked for 39 years? WOW. Congratulations on quitting!!!<BR/><BR/>@Rebecca: What do you plan to do with your no-smoking savings?

I totally dig your mercenary motivation to quit. I'm a day behind you in the non-smoking department.<BR/><BR/>40 buxs to savings tomorrow. *woot*

I have never even tried smoking, but both my parents were smokers. My mom quit several years ago and I am so thankful. Her health isn't the best anyway, she is diabetic, but I am glad she at least is taking care of her lungs! :) Good luck in your journey, you have done such a fabulous job with everything else like paying off your debt and developing a great website to help motivate others.

I have been smoke free for 5 months now, and this is coming from someone who smoked for 39 years and 2 /12 packs a day. I did use Chantix and it really helped me an awful lot. Don't get me wrong I still want a smoke now and then but nothing like it use to be, thank God. I feel so much better, I can breathe. <BR/><BR/>Good luck and just keep telling yourself you don't need the cig!<BR/><BR/>Jodi

Wow, You convinced me in the possibility of living without a cigarette. That looked as the pure fantastic prior reading your post, but your testimony convinced me in the reality of the freedom from our bad habits. Thank you for the wonderful encouragement. I too will try to follow your example now.

Yayyy bravo! <BR/>I've heard of QuitNet - it sounds like a really cool tool. One of my blogger friends used it to show that she's saved over $3000 in the last several years from quitting. You're richer already!
