As of two days ago I have been smoke free for one year. I quit cold turkey a year ago and I have to say I am very proud of myself. When I decided to quit I didn't tell a soul. It wasn't until 3 days in to it that my better half asked if I needed a pack of smokes. I told him that I didn't. He said that he noticed that I wasn't going outside as much. So with that I told him I quit 3 days before that. And ever since I don't even think about them and that is why I am 2 days late in telling about my success.

That is awesome!! Congratulations! This is my second attempt and the only time I have a hard time is when I'm drinking socially, which rarely happens!0

I could have NEVER done it cold turkey! I used the gum and it worked very well for me! Congrats on your success!0

If anyone needs a great book that made all the difference in the world to me, poke me your email address and I will send it your way.0 -
Congrats!! I am 18 months and 6 days smoke free. I wasn't brave enough to go cold turkey like you did. I smoked for almost 23 years and needed some help. I used 1 pack of gum and took it from there.0

Impressive. I have tried and failed repeatedly so it is always inspiring to hear from those who have done it. Good job! And thanks for posting.0

It's been 2 years and 6 months since I picked up a cig! I used Nicoderm CQ, and I followed the 9 week plan. The plan gradually reduces nicotine, and as a result, your withdraw symptoms are almost non-existent. However, in the end ,it's up to you to stay motivated and stay quit. There are more deaths related to smoking than there are being a few pounds overweight.0
