good luck to all the quitters, here something that i found on the www.
Original Blisstree Post By Liz Lewis:
I think one of the main reasons it’s so hard to quit smoking is because all the benefits of quitting (and all the dangers of continuing) seem very far away. So here’s a timeline about some of the more immediate effects of quitting smoking and how they will affect your body right now.

- In 20 minutes your blood pressure will drop back down to normal.
- In 8 hours the carbon monoxide (a toxic gas) levels in your blood stream will drop by half, and oxygen levels will return to normal.
- In 48 hours your chance of having a heart attack will have decreased. All nicotine will have left your body. Your sense of taste and smell will return to a normal level.
- In 72 hours your bronchial tubes will relax, and your energy levels will increase.
- In 2 weeks your circulation will increase, and it will continue to improve for the next 10 weeks.
- In 3 to 9 months coughing, wheezing, and breathing problems will dissipate as your lung capacity improves by 10%.
- In 1 year your risk of having a heart attack will have dropped by half.
- In 5 years your risk of having a stroke returns to that of a non-smoker.
- In 10 years your risk of lung cancer will have returned to that of a non-smoker.
- In 15 years your risk of heart attack will have returned to that of a non-smoker.

mmmmmmm i smoking a tasty Marlboro red 100 right now. I can feel the nicotine surge through my body and give me super powers. The feeling of the cig in between my fingers, and the smoke hovering around me.
I look so cool, like a camel with a leather jacket or some type of badass cowboy maybe.

I quit a 2 pack a day 22 year habit using those mints called Commit Lozenges. My 3rd day i left for Vegas and partied hard, those commits did a great job. I had tried to quit 2 times before that cold turkey, even made it 3 months without a cig once. I haven't smoked for 3 and 1/2 years now. I still want to smoke, but its all psychological now. I can go to bars and even hang out with my family who ALL smoke except my grandma.
