I'm ready to come down here. I decided to stop smoking June 25th - it was Tim's birthday and he wanted me to quit smoking, so I stopped that day. It's been 7 days, and over the first couple of days I took a puff once or twice a day, but that was it. Last night, I smoked a cigarette but surprised myself that I really didn't enjoy it or get any satisfaction from it.

So, after last night, I know that I'm serious about not smoking anymore, and seeing the smile on my son's face when we get gas, and only gas...it's a better reward than any cigarette ever was. Looks like this forum gets another non-smoker. Wish me luck!
