for you other smokers , April 1 ( weather should be great by then)is a good day to quit smoking, where you can get outside and take a long walk to keep your mind off smoking(especially after meals), you don't want to be trapped in the house with nothing to do.........what ever it takes , chew gum, patches, at least think about it "you can do this".................good luck   turkey scout |

My dad quit last august for preparation of his hip surgery. He has a 90 pack year history and I'm sure COPD will still get him but atleast slow down the progression. There is NO cure for COPD and the only way to slow the progression is to stop smoking. Hang in there and I wish you luck!

Remember this mantra as well:
"The urge to smoke will go away whether you smoke or not......" You can anticipate conscious urges for nearly a year, but one day you will become aware that you can't recall your last urge.
Hang in there. My last cig was 9-9-85

I'm still hanging in there, 7 weeks and counting. Not too bad at all now except when I have an adult beverage or two.

Good Deal,
I just started to quit, Just 2 days but I have been down to 7-8 cigs a day for about 2 mo.s. I have been smoking for 47 years. I really think what helped me out was when we started making our own. I found they were not as addictive. (pipe tobbaco) not wacky tabbacky. Well keep it up and let us know how you are doing.
