Quitting smoking (HONEST!!) - Page 15

AVGWarhawk · 06-28-09, 04:32 PM

Never heard of that one Peto

13 days

I'm doing ok after 5 weeks. Jim Buna is hanging tough as well. I miss them every now and then buuuuuuuuuutttttttt I like the extra cash I have every week. Both my wife and I quit so it is double the savings. I would pay for hers as well. Hey, wait a damn minute....she is going to have to pay that back some sort of way

I can think of a few. Oh honey.........

Still going strong. My weight went up to 182 (up 2 pounds) since I quit though. Not too worried since I'm 6' 2" --a little more weight and I'm still svelte

I'm not sure it I gained any weight Peto. I have stated eating fruits and vegetables. My daughters are asking who I am and what I did with their dad.

I started walking in the evenings as well. I might blow the dust off my mountain bike.

Keep going....it gets easier. I have noticed I get more done around the house. Sitting around smoking is now filled with fixing things around the ranch instead.

I did have a horrible dream the other night.

I dreamed I had a cigarette and woke up with a start.

Not a nice feeling.

I have had one dream I was smoking.

Man, you guys are awesome!

Have we got a list of the winners in this contest yet? I think some ping prizes are warranted

AVGWarhawk · 07-01-09, 01:33 PM

I do not believe a formal list was created. There are a few here that are on the wagon but there is one ferret that seems to be absent. This ferret was the one who started it.

He's too busy right now rummaging through some young ladies drawers

Dieing slowly from a lingering cold but, would have been alot worse if I was still smokeing.

Hang in there gang.

Jimbuna · 07-01-09, 02:20 PM

You hang in there....at least you wouldn't be able to taste what you were missing

AVGWarhawk · 07-10-09, 11:50 AM

Still surviving Chris...pleased to hear of your continuing success

AVGWarhawk · 07-10-09, 02:05 PM

Good, your hanging in there.

Save what you spent on smokes and you could afford another trip back to Neal's ranch before you know it. Monetarily I really do notice more spendable cash as a result of stopping the smokes.
