Thanks for the congrats. Boy the time goes by quickly. I am still smoke free though and loving it. My brother-in-law, who has had two heart attacks in the past few years is in the hospital for overexerting angina or something along those lines. He quit smoking I think but might still chew. I feel bad for him and his wife but do know it made me grateful that I am not smoking anymore. Thank God.

I have not smoked since September 8, 2005. Quit days 621. I have saved $4,975.79. Life saved 3 Months, 4 Weeks, 22 hours and 26 minutes.

Yea, Teiger!
You and I have about the same time in clean. Horay for BOTH of us! LOL!

Remember to keep the quit and post before you puff!

Shalom!

Congrats to you Historyteach. That is awesome. Yep, post before you puff is a great plan. I go to another site for quitting smoking also and they have kind of the same rule and they like you to wait for 3 replies and read them before you go smoke. Whatever works and it is one day at a time for me just like with my sobriety although I smoked a heck of a lot longer then I drank LOL.

Have a great day.

my philosophy for quitting chew has been very similar to yours on smoking... take things day by day.

i'm almost a year quit and i STILL don't think about forever... it't too big of a concept for me to get my head around... NO TOBACCO TODAY.

it's worked for the last 317 days
