Im quitting smoking...

Good luck on trying to quit and don't give up. I'm not really trying to quit but i have been cutting down on my smoking. It use to be a little more than half a pack a day, now i'm smoking like 2 or 3 max 4 cigs. a day and somewhat i feel healthier. Again, don't give up!

Gradual reduction does not work in my experience.

Once you get over the "hump" it's all about your mindset. If you really do want to quit you can. Just try not to replace one chemical addiction with another.
I was addicted and quit a drug that is nothing short of hell to stop. It can be done.

Good luck man.

The first week is the hardest. I've been tobacco free for a month now. Only time I crave a smoke is when I'm drinking.

Good luck man, it's worth it.

Never heard of snus, but good luck man.

As for smoking, I've only smoked a few times in my life and that was when I was nearly piss-pants drunk as my friends and I like to call it. Marlboro Smooths taste just like peppermint patties...it's crazy as shit.

^ they do taste extremely minty, not a good kind of minty, tho.

I smoked newports n marlboro menthols for a lil over 3 years and just quit this past june. I was smoking more than a pack a day, n was gettin fat, so I said **** it. Went cold turkey and started going to the gym. Been smoke free since then and have also dropped 40 lbs. Definitely glad I quit although I still constantly feel like buying a pack, especially when I'm stressed out over something. Just gotta have willpower n not give in....

I never picked up on smoking. Only tried it once to be honest. I just see everyday what my parents have gone through and how hard it is too quit. They are trying again right now, but they are doing the patches and what not.

Only way to do it is cold turkey. Dad quit about 4 years ago for a couple years and was cold turkey.

I feel for them. It seems so hard for them to give it up. Not to mention all the money they spend on it. I believe IIRC they told me they spend over 350 smacks a month on just ciggs. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif More than my car payment!

Strange, usually when you smoke, you lose weight as you don't eat much. At least that is what I noticed with my parents and my wife, who quit when she ment me. She has since gained some weight, but has a major thyroid problem from her last pregnency.

Good luck.

I wish I never started smoking. I can only go without a cigarette for about 5 hours. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif
