    I gave up the habit 16 or 17 years ago, but still feel the urge when I'm enjoying a beer or three.

    I enjoy smoking most of the time. There are times I hate myself for it.... Like riding in my parents car for 12 hours with limited smoke breaks. :explode:
  • I plan on trying to quit (again!) after i get to my goal weight.

    i smoke, drink diet soda & coffee - but I eat a ton of fruits and veggies every day.

    i don't pretend to be perfect, but i'm still healthier than I was when i started my weight loss adventure!

    Only time I ever had even one puff from a cigarette was when I was in Okinawa and we put a roach in the end of a Kool. Never again.

    I do, however, go through half a dozen Cigars a week.
  • LOL Brett and Lisa, I was the same way when i tried to quit at day 4. Work is a *****! And I have to deal with old farty customers and I had like 3 instances where I got so heated I was crying and shaking. I took a brisk walk after each one but it was just too much (same week I started my diet) so that's the day I caved. Hope you're able to push through it!!!!

    I loved smoking.

    I still miss it...especially when I have a cold beer in my hand.

    *sigh*

    quit about 180 days ago...

    don't miss the cost
    don't miss huffing and weezing going up stairs
    don't miss being fat
    don't miss not being able to run a mile (and more)
    don't miss sweating when the temp goes up 5deg

    and I can keep going, I honestly enjoyed it when I did, but didn't miss the fact that it's killing me and now that I quit for a half a year, I DON'T miss how bad I stunk now that I can smell it on others..

    And yet you are so fit. What about all the people who say if you smoke, you are unhealthy?

    Let's discuss this over a smoke?!

    I don't smoke because I'm addicted, I smoke simply because I love it. Each time I've found out I was pregnant, I've quit that same day and not smoked for the duration of my pregnancies. Last year was hospitalized for two weeks. Doctor suggested giving me a patch or meds to "Help you get through your time here without smoking." I refused them and did not suffer withdrawal symptoms nor did I crave a smoke. Smoked as soon as I got home. I simply love smoking and cannot think of a reason to quit. Sorry, but it is enjoyable to me.........:smokin:

    I love smoking I love the smell. Nothing compliments booze or sex better. I have quit before and plan to again. But right now I'm not going to beat myself up over. You know I could get hit by a bus tomorrow and I dont want my last thought to be I regret anything lol

    WOW!!! You just sucked the fun out of this. We all know the risks associated with smoking. I also know the risks associated with eating red meat, driving, breathing the air in the city, using bug spray while camping, drinking alcohol, drinking milk and crossing the street without looking.
