I quit cold turkey because I believe that is the only way to succeed. It is all or nothing. Trying to cut down the amount the smoke just opens the door to make excuses to smoke more. I have to say that is true that things taste and smell different. I wish anyone who tries to quit smoking success and those who succeed congradulations.","Monday July 28, 2008","04:22 PM -0400" "lesyjeuwb","Ex-Smoker","aYAUrSayLwJvxVry","TzTluIsCQjhxBfrQK","MntYkTQyWvbHf","ODMaMuevzGRSK","rduGOjLoYH","MNDzjaJChCKUfzqsN","tkFhhfCJiQkIEKfaTP","MmRrVTgD","Wednesday July 30, 2008","12:31 PM -0400" "Chuck","Never Smoked","soccer","ping pong","long drives in on summer evenings","fishing","card collecting","they are trapped, what a sham, fooling themselves into thinking they are getting anything good from cigs.","sick to my stomache","","Friday August 01, 2008","10:34 PM -0400" "blaruftxyr","Ex-Smoker","CZDnQeKBFRGvNuNpi","kScNABesuhqeGjQr","wlEfAuoRt","zmYLmCxVb","GgDcaoStbZXccAI","RAoiuxPkXA","VEUDfKtbMd","eZtbrCFLimONh","Tuesday August 12, 2008","12:52 PM -0400" "","Smoker","","","","","","","","","Friday August 15, 2008","11:25 AM -0400" "Joyce","Ex-Smoker","go hot-air ballooning","get a hug from your grandchildren","","","","I am completed bewildered when I see a young mother smoking in her car with all the windows up and her children in the backseat.","I feel anger toward the mother, and so sorry for those kids who are trapped in such a small space with no place to go and smoking with their mother.

But, I could see myself getting to that place because I kept tolerating with more and more physical discomfort and still smoked, for example, even when I had a cold or a cough, I would smoke. So I really got out of my denial. I planned a good time to stop and by that time I had learned a lot of tricks by stopping before, reading books on it, taking Smokenders, etc. Now it has been over 20 years since I stopped.
